Thus Waye ob- tains an alibi for the slaying of “Spider” Schlitz, Charters' former confedcrate, and gains the ccnfidence of Marjorie, wheee aunt was in Charters’ cld gang. The gitl's health has been growing worse under the trcatment by Dr. MacAdoo, an cxpert in deadly poisons, who, like Mr. James, wants Waye “bumped off.” James sees Col- cnch Campball and Waye enter the room of another patient, 1 Skinnor, but finds her alcne when he opens the door. However, Miss Skinner and the Celcnel are ousted from the home.
