Jchn Waye, who placed it thcre, tells the crooks at Dr. Charters’ nursing home that he will remain with them until Dorson hangs. Charters, who had once cheated Dorson and Schlitz of their shares of loot, weuld be secretly pleased should Deroen aleo be removed. Mean- while he can’t get rid of Waye. The exposure of Charters’ trick- ay of Dr. MacAdoo and Mr. Jamee in making a private deal to poiccn Marjorie Lauderdell 56 that her aunt might gain her fortune causes the plot to be dropped.
