SPEAK oOuT, Livbaa J BARNEY -’ JUS WHAT'S ON THINKIN' . o "by Mignon G. Eberhart’ Chiapter 48 I THE COGKATOG AGAIN o& 1.didn’t dream the priest was Franels. ' The beard and all fhat would have changed him. He bad been educated in a church _, tchool—and well educated. He knew how to manage the—disguise. How and what to do.” After a helpless moment | said: “But what of your own half? You'll be obliged to prove yourself t¢ his lawyer—there’ll be arrangements. ['think I'd better cable the lawyer Immediately.” She nodded. “Then this man calling himszelf Francis Tally must be actually in conspiracy with the Lovschiems. Also this charming substitute they've kept in waliting."” “Substitute?” said Sue, roused. “They have tho substitute already?* 1 explained. “And the point fs,” I finished, “we've got to hurry.” Any plan now was dangerous for Sue. Ten millfons instead of five. | said: “I'm going to call one of the po- licemen to stay here with you. Then I'm going to find Lorn—" “Lorn should have known the priest was Francis!” she cried. “He dfdn’t. He wasn't suré about thi§ newcomer for the same reason. And then | want you to ring for Marianne and question her, 1 have 8 faint hope that Marcel told her what he had seen. 1 hate letting you out of my sight, but I've got to find Lorn.” 1 went to the door which led to the winding' stairway and thus to the courtyard. Under the swaying light of the arch stood one of our gnard, and, after making sure | was unobserved, 1 called and beckoned to him, and once in my room he seemed to understand very sensi- bly what was wanted. The corrifors were as usual de- gerted. It was at the very door of Lorn’s room that 1 met Grethe. She slid rather than walked out of it, closed it siléntly, and saw me. “Well?" she said, and as ! did not reply, she leaned nearer me and sfid one smooth soft arm through mine and said: “Are you looking for me?” I said grimly: Lorn! room?” Without waiting for her reply I thrust her aside and flung open the door and laoked about, The room Was empty, although it looked sin- gularly untigy. Madame Gretho was emiling a little; her green eyes were shinigg knowingly. “Well?” she said ..gain, her voice trailing upward. . “Where's_Lorn?” "'Downsta?rs. I believe,” she safd 'eoolly enough. “He was in the lobby with Lovschiem a few moments sgo.” ] I was nearing the door to the lobby when I heard his voice, taut and sharp and strange: “Sundean! Sundean! “I'm looking for What were you doing in his Hurry!” RAN the last few steps. They were both in the. lobby —Lovschiem and Lorn. And Lorn bad a gun in his hand, and it was trained strgight at Lovschiem's fat pmnch. and Lovschiem was stand- ing there just beside the deSk with hfs jeweled hands lifted high in the &ir. “You've got the revolyer?’ [ bad it in my hand. “Yes.” "“Keep this man here while I get the police. .Don't hesitate to shoot. He's the murderer.” “Lovschiem?” “Yes. I've known it for some time, but I've got the proof mow. From Marianne.” L said: “What is it?” “His conpection with Stravsky. She, the maid, heard them talking the night Stravsky was killed. They wefe in the court. She heard-—, steady, there, Lovschiem!—she heard Stravsky promise to get something for Lovschiem. Lov- schiem wafned Stravsky to make no mistake this time. The thing|j, was, of course, Miss Tally’s token.” “Stravsky said he'd give it to Loyschiem mafiana. I'li call the po- lica. Don’t let him go, Sundean. Shoot to kill.” "The door to the court whipped open and Lovschiem's terrified eyes shifted to me. This time the mum- ble was half coherent. “} didn’t=—I'm not—I didn't—" “What's all this?” It was Grethe ffom the lounge. “They say I murdered them. Tha! 48y 1 killed—" Lovschiem’s fat, éringed hands were shaking md -there in the &(F. th-t," 1 sald llurply ‘to thy retreat. “Come back here. Stand over there.” She gave m. a stfll Took but obeyed. She said calmly: “You'd as well not make a move, Lovschiem. I think our friend is rather likely to shoot us.” It was very still in the small lobby while our eyes met and locked. Very. still. except for the small rustle of the cockatoo scram- bling from his perch to the desk. From the corner of my eyes 1 could see him sidle toward his mistress. She did not move or shift her eyes from mine as the bird caught her green sleeve and pulled him- self clumsily in a curlous kind of hand-over-hand movement to her &houlder. Puccl chuckled hoarsely and laid his wide bill alongside his mis- tress's warm red hair. But there was something wrong—something that didn’t add—some quantity that was not.right. Puccl was pushing hig_bill into the red hair. He was pushing and | pushing—no! He.was pulling. He was pulling at something that was thin and white and folded and that finally came entirely from the mass of red hair. It was a thin folded paper. 5 Madame Grethe heard suddenly some small_rustle, and she moved her head and cried, “Pucci!” in a strangled voice. “Put down schiem. dame.” She did so. She did not hesitate, as I had known she would not. She took it gently and carefully from Pucci and put it in my hand. The paper was what I thought 1t was. your hands, Lov- Give me that paper, ma- COMMOTION of footsteps and voiges arose outside, and the door was flung op~n and Lorn was there. Even in that hurried instant 1 was conscious of the singular look he gave us: it held surprise and a kind of disappointment and | at the same time decision. Lorn pointed at me and said something very sharp, and the po- lice fell upon me, and gripped my arms. “So,” 1 said above things to Lorn. “So that is the reason. You must supply them with a murderer.” “There's no use talking like that, “Sundean,” sald Lorn. "You can't defend yourself, They will find the poison in your foom, where I found it and thus was convinced of your guilt.” 1 was dimly conscious that the man who had called himsgelf Fran- cis Tally had appeared in the doors way of the lounge. “Madame,” 1 said to Grethe, “ask these policemen to free my arms for a moment. 1 won't try to escape -1 cunldn t Then, before their eyes I brought out the envelope In which Francis Tally’s 1ast letter to bis sister bad been sent. And I had also a small irregular piece-«f wax which | bad found on the landing where the body of Michael Stravsky had lain. ,.Thers was.not a sound while ! fitted the broken wax to the halt ot the seal which still remained on the envelope. The fwo pleces fitted exactly and made one. ‘I said to Logn: { “You have killed and killed for the Tally millions.” ‘Take him away! Arrest him!" “You Killed Stravsky, and .you killed Marcel and you, killec the priest. And when you killed Strav- 'sky because you had witnessed the abduction _and Sue's_return and you, thought.

For it was gone. Yet the Lovschiems did not bave it. And it was not on the priest’s body.” Grethe sald in a still way: “It's true. It wa: his room. I found it.” Lorn had shrunk fnto his brown coat; he was only shadowed eyes and chalk-yellow face, and he no longer screamed at the policemen, (Copyright,.4933.
