LaMarr has lost his re- volver, and is fighting hand to hand, Chapter 33 SURPRISE ‘ERRY turned sideways just In time. LaMarr retreated a few steps and picked up a table lamp. He flung it at Terry’s face. Again Terry was just a split sec ond ahead of him. And always he came on steadily, relentlessly, halt- blinded by the blood from the gash in his forehead, but always coming on. A table went over, a chair was broken They mixed it in the middle of the floor, LaMarr trying to jaba thumb in Willett’s eye, gouging, fighting with fists, nails, teeth, and knees. But all those tricks had been tried on the tall auburn-haired American at one time or another; some of them had worked once, but never twice. He weathered the savage, desper- ate onslaughts with the sheer fury of hia iron fists and the spirit that had been born from many fights In many places with all kinds of op ponerts. Terry beat LaMarr to his knees. LaMarr’s left eyebrow was hanging loose and a cheekbone was shattered. Willett grabbed him by the shoul- dets and hanled him to his feet. LaMarr sagged helpless in his grip, his knees buckling, his breath and heart and strength gone. Willett saw that he was through. He released him and LaMarr sank down and fell over backwards, sowething crawly and shapeless and half blind. “That's that,” said Willett. He wasn’t in such good shape him self. His head reeled dizzily, one eye was blinded, and his ribs on one side ached from a bruising kick, but LaMarr had tearned not to deal with @ roughneck. ROUGHNECK! Yes, it was in her eyes, the eyes of a white faced girl staring at the scene in that shambled zoom in borror. Good God! Had his brain been jarred loose from its moorings? Why, she was Stangling therg on) the, threshold— “Allaire West! He tust be crazy. But he wasn’t crazy. “Allaire!” Fox and Rayburne West nearly shouted the name. The girl looked at the battered thing on the floor and then at the tall maa standing nearby with blood streaming over one eye, his face still set in fighting mask. Disgust and shock and horror. There went the works. Her father was trying to get her attention. “Where have you been—?” Her mouth curved briefly. “If 1 told you, you wouldn’t be lieve it. I can hardly believe it my. relf.” Terry Willett looked at her, tilting his head back to clear his vision. “So you disappeared. Just like that. Just went off without a word, and now you come back and can hardly believe it yourself. Where did you ever get the crazy idea you could do things like that? Or don't you care about the worry and trouble you cause, detectives run- ning around all over the place and people tying themselves in knots trying to find you? But you prob ably will never see that. You're too used to doing what you want and to hell with everybody else. And now good night, all.” “Wait a minute, Terry!” It was Fox's voice.:“You can't go out like that. Your head—!” Attaboy, George, the lamp of rea- son. “Mere briefly. He strode out of the room and out of the house. Outside, he drew a long breath of cool night air. He needed it. Well, that was that, all right. Boy, he'd certainly shot the works. But what difference did it make? Fox was there—and Fox wasn't a killer or a roughneck—he was a gentleman and a rising young For- eign Officer. He was of ber world born to the purple, and when he saw a snake he stepped over it and not on it. Good old Fox. “Look out, Terry, he’s armed!” Fox would die in his bed surrounded by great-grandchildren. The lamp of reason. Terry was bareheaded and he knew he probably looked as though he'd just returned from the wars, but ‘he hailed a taxi and bore the driv er’s astonished stare with com posure. scratch,” said Willett by David Gar€ (EVER MIND THE LADY (NEVER MIND THE LADY NEVER MIND THE LADY “Gosh, Mac, what hit you? Want a doc?” “Either that or some adhesive tape.” “Get in, boss, get in. I know a good doc.” Terry got in. He leaned back against the cushions and propped his feet up on one of the little side seats. “How are the Giants doing?” he murmured. RIGHT sun was flooding the room when ve awoke the next day. His head felt as though it had been hit with a collection of assorted sand- bags. Had he been drunk last night? Ee pondered. No, he’d been slugged with something, that was right. A merry life, yea, truly; never a dull moment. He looked at his wrist watch. Al- most noon. Something was due to happen today. Oh, yes—he had to take a plane at Newark Airport for Miami and the Pan-American Air- ways. He got up and went over to the, mirror where he regarded himself critically. He wasn’t exactly a pic- ture of beauty, with a discoloration around one eye and his forehead bandaged with several strips of sur- gical tape, and when he took a deep breath the ribs on one side ached. Well, don’t take any deep breaths: He showered and dressed quickly, Terry Willett dressed well in’ ‘an easy natural way. He presentéd'd smart, clean-cut appearance in dark | double-breasted, blue shirt, wine | colored cravat, and his thick auburn | hair crisply parted. aedo2 Then with his bags packed and his topcoat under arm, he paused by the table and picked up Puff Harring- ton’s note. She’d evidently left it there right after he and Fox had gone out of the room last evening. There were two words hurriedly scrawled, “Thanks, Terry.” Sic tran- sit Puff. You're welcome, babe. It didn’t cost you anything but a cigaret case. Some detective’s wife has that “evi- dence” now probably. He smiled slightly and tore the note into bits, letting the pieces filter through his fingers. As he closed the door behind him and turned the key in the lock, he heard his phone ring. He hesitated a moment; who'd be calling him? Puff, maybe? Well, whoever it was he didn't think it worth the effort to unlock the door and go back. What was the use? He let the phone ring. Terry Willett wanted to get away from here. He hada short breakfast and then went to the desk to pay his bill. The phone girl said there'd been a call for him; no message. The party had been very eager to locate him and the phone girl had said Mr. Willett was leaving for Newark Airport shortly. “Hope you have a nice trip, Mr. Willett,” she smiled. She was very pretty and lots of men stopped by to talk about the telephone situation. It was just her luck that when one came along with whom she’d have liked to discuss the telephone situa- tion, he wasn’t interested in the tele- phone situation. Black eye and bandaged brow, but that warlike-looking young man was a real gent, thought the telephone girl. Willett arrived at the airport and the big tri-motored ship was already waiting, the sun shining on its sil- ver body with a flood of gleaming reflections. The Miami! plane! Com- ing, Corrigan. With his foot on the step, he heard his name called. netrsel to see th toward him swiftly. She se breathless and ‘there was a tow high color in'Her face. She bis side and put a hand on bis “a. back to South America?”. He looked at her curiously. “Why, of course.” “You might have come around to say good-bye.” He laughed shortly. “1 said good-bye last night—words and music.” “Let's get out of here,” said Al laire, as a portly passenger waited impatiently to get aboard. “Five minutes, sir,” said the plane steward to Willett. “More than enough,” said Willett, and walked to one side. Allaire seemed to have something to pad? but couldn’t quite say it. “If it's about last night,” said woe lett, “forget it.” “Oh, Terry, you can’t go like this after all you've done. 1 wanted to talk to you last night, but ycu didn’t. give me a chance. It was grand of you to take my part, to sock that beastly swine.” (Copyright, 1935. by David Garth) — Allaire breaks into the news, to- Peninsular & Occidental Steamship Company Lrfective December 22nd, 1935, S.
