OH, aov., I HOPE SO WHAT A FIGHT IT S CGONNA, BE -- 2 RUN ' ALONG . AND DON'T BOTHER ] The White Codkatoo by Mignon G. Eberhart’ ! SYNOPSIS: The drama that has filled the cld French hotel suddenly comes to a fecus when Francis Tally demands that his cister Sue predtice the token that is to identify her to him— fcr: they s have not met since chil@hcod, and Sue’s inhcritance hangs by that thread. Sue's tcken has been stolen; she “bluffs” Francis superbly, how- ever. In the background are three murders, and a tangle of purpcces still a mystery, Sue’s staunch cupperter, Jim Sun- deau, suddenly is warncd by Francis’ detective, David Lorn, that danger also threatens him. Chapter 42 SURPRISE FOR LORN Lorn did not even look at me tb see 'what I though of his warn-' ing, if warming it was. He tinued at once: “Mr. Tally doesn’'t seem t) want me. I'll jusk go take a look at this very opportunely robbed safe.” “Wait,” I said quickly, “I've got the link between Stravsky and Lovschiem.” “What!” con- This time I did police?” “Well perhaps not,” I said, thereby losing at least three fourtas of his interest. “What then?” he an effect of languor. “The night of my arrival some- one came to this hotel, registored below my name, and was shown to a room. Then he vanished. Even his name was removed from the register. Who was that man if it wasn't Suravsky?” “How do you know that?” “I don't know it,” T said, .“if vou mean by that can I prove it on strength of the evidence we now have. But it’s the logical conclu- sion.” ‘Indeed,” inquire i with he said dryly. “And suc-, ceed in getting his full at‘ention.’ “One that will hold water with the singularly long and strang: “Don't worry, Sundeau, “I'll remember that.” And that was all the satisfaction I had. It was just then, however, that he heaped coals on my head. He ]said slowly: ; “I'm atraid 1 must warn you, Sundean, to be—more circumspect ‘m your behavior.” I was struck by the undercurrent of meaning in his voice. I had the feeling you have when, walking in deep woods, you see the brush near you waver silently with the passage (of a stealthy and unseen body. It| is a strangely sinister and primitive | kind of chill that it gives you, and I felt it then, lokeing at Lorn and | hearing his slow words. “Well,” I said, “what mean?” “I hadn't intended to tell you. Don’t try to leave the hotel to- night, Sundean, and above all things, make no suspicious move- !ment, for it will be as much as your life is worth.” “What on earth are you driving at?” “The police found your finger- prints on the electric switch in the White Salon. They argue that be- cause you tried to turn on the light it must have been night when you touched it. Ergo—" One of his ! slight baffling shrugs finished it. Things about me were suddenly |rather dim. It was true: I had touched it and tried to turn on the light late the previous afternoon. Just before my last glimpse of the priest. I remembered it all too perfectly, Lorn was watching me, noting, I felt, every shade that flickered over my face. I said as nonchalantly as I could contrive “I suppose they are preserving the clue for the Paris detectives?” “Why, yes — naturally. I don't wish to alarm you, Sundean, but it is nothing to regard lightly.” “I'm not regarding it lightly,” I he said. do you| 242 “We both know that Sue's wilful.” rrom what do you draw your logi-i cal conclusion?” I told him briefly, watching the parlor door and keeping half an| ear for any untoward sound. He did look faintly more impressed when I'd finished, although he pointed out at once that I was building up supposition on strength merely of a missing ink blot and Marcel's few scattered words anent * the soiled towels in a supposedly| vacant room. “It fits,” I said stubbornly. “No,” he denied me rather sadly. “It ‘doesn’t fit. It isn’t the least conclusive. It does, however, pro- vide a line of investigation.” “Well, it ought to be “of some value to you, then” I said. “I hope you don't mind my saying that it seems to me you need a o féW. more Mnes of investigation. And also—" I ground out my cig- arette with a quick motion and got to my feet, where I stood look- ing down at him—“Miss Tally is not out of danger. We both know that she’s—wilful: she may refuse to show her brother her token until he shows his own. They may both be afraid of traps, and the thing may be a deadlock for a little time. “And Miss Tally, until she is ac- cepted completely by her brother, is in greater danger than she ever was. Thoarrival of her brother has| forced w.e climax. remember that.” Pflm rose too. I hope youll He gave me & said. “I'm looking to you to get| me out of it.” “Well—I'll do my best, of course,”. he replied a bit gloomily. “But {1 do wish you wouldn't go out of your way to leave clues.” “Look here, Lorn — who's the ! murderer? You must know by this time. Or you must have some no- tion. You've had days to do ib. And it's a shocking situation.” “One can’t hurry. about such things,” warned Lorn pessimitical- ly. “One must be very sure of every fact. Must prove as one goes. One can’t safely leap to conclusions in your own startling fashion. But there’s one thing I must tell you, Sundean. I'd prefer telling’ Miss Tally directly. But I can't quite do that under the circumstances. So— }rn tenn you. “Well?” He paused, arranging his words; there was no shadow of feeling or eyes. He said finally: “I think it might be as well for Miss Tally to delay concluding the negonatlons for perhaps a day or two.” “What do you meah?” “What I say. No more, no less.” T'did not say that at the moment Sue had no intention of concluding negotiations, no matter how much, she longed to do so. musingly. “You don’t gquite trust| him. Your ‘reason for distrust isn't strong enough to permit your going “Tally’s your employer,”I said/ expression in those cloudy dark|f openly against your employer and/ warning Miss Tally not to trust him. Yet you warn me, knowing I shall tell her. i “You've said too much, Lorn, not | to say more.” Sue and Francis quarrel, temeorrow, over their inherit- ance. (Copyrignt, 1353, Mignon G.
