FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1986. The Wrong Murderer By HUGH CLEVELY SYNOPSIS: Terence Mahony ts accused of murdering @ man and of being in with a gang of kidnap- pers, among other things. But ab though ke has important evidence, Inspector Kennedy has decided to give Elsa Little. the cinema actress, @ chance to worm damaging inf mation out of Terence before a: resting htm Elsa ts the niece of ti murdered man, and because 8 recognized Terence’s voice at the scene of the murder is the most important wituess against him, Chapter 29 RUTH’S WARNING HEN the Inspector had gone, : Mahony left his todgings and went round to Lee-Ramsden’s house. Me was shown into the drawing- room where Ruth and Lee-Ramsden were seated. “Hello,” sa'd Lee-Rams¢en cheer fully. “You're looking rather pleased with yourself this morning. What's Leen happening?” “As a matter of fact, I'm feeling rather pleased.” answered Mahony. “ive just uad a visit from Miss Little. She doesn’t suspect me of murdering her uncle any more.” “That's good.” said Lee-Ramsden. “L don’t wonder tha: you're pleased.” But Ruth frowned, and looked at Mahony in a puzzled manner. “She doesn’t suspect you vany longer. Are you sure? What makes yy think tLat?” she asked. “She said so.” replied» Mahony. “She told me she was all wrought bp and nervy yesterdayJand hardly knew what she was saying.” “She told you that she didn’t sus- pect you any more?” asked*Ruth in- credulously. “She told me so herself,” answered isbony impatiently. “And she in vited me to dine with her this eve ning. That doesn’t look as if she still suspected me. does it?” “1 don't know.” said Ruth slowly. There was something very wrong here, ae felt. Was Elsa setting a trap fot him?” “Don't »ou go to dinner with her,” she said impulsively “I’m sure she still suspects you She's got some reason for inviting you to dinner.” Mahony felt very awkward; he thought Ruth was >eing silly. He did nit quite know how to tell her po- litely that he nad ao intention of refusing Elsa’s invitation. Ruth saw what was passing in his mind. She realized that nothing would induce him to refuse Elsa’s invitation. “All right; do what you like. I'm going for a walk, she said in a somewhat muffled voice. and turned hastily an¢ left the ‘oom, slamming the door after her. Mahony looked astonished. Old lee-Ramsden made a slight gesture gs if to indicate that «! ere was noth- ing to be astonished al cut. “Women my dear Mahony. are queer creatures; they have these moods, you know,” he remarked airily. “What else has been hap- pening to you during the last twelve hours?” “Quite a lot.” answered Mahony, and he began to tell Lee-Ramsden about his adventures in Limehouse. Ruth did not go for 1 walk. She wen! into the hall, jut on a raincoat and hat, opened the front door, and then changed her mind. She wanted to be alone, to think. She closed the front door again, went up to her guardian ~ study, and sat down ina large arm-chair. SHE felt very miserable and help *? less. and as she sat huddled ‘n ““e big acm-chair, the tears ran slowly down her cheeks What could she do: how could she save Mahony? After a ume she beard the fron: oor open, and her guardian's voiga, in the hall below biddipg ‘Mahbny’ g&01-bye. The front door closed; she hecrd her guardian’¢ , footsteps ascending the stairs to the study’ He Opened the door and entered. Ruth shrank back in the big chalf and remained quite still. She hoped Lee-Ramsden would .ot see her; she did not want him to know that she had been crying. He crossed the room. humming a little tune, went to his desk, raised the telephone receiver. and gave a number. In a second or two she heard him speaking. “Is that you, Lawson? I've just been having a talk with our young friend Mshony. | can tel’ you what kas happened to you: missing man, Lake; he’s imprisoned at number seven, Royal Road, Pennyfields, Ma- hony has engaged the services of some of your own toughs led by a man named Bassett, an* they're af- ter your blood. He géts into touch with Bassett by ringing Iimehouse o-three-two-five, which is a pawn- shop next door to Bassett’s house, where Lake is imprisoned. Does this interest you at all?” Ruth could just catch Lawson's | answer, sounding very thin and faint, “It interests me a lot. Thank you. Tl take steps to deal with those peo rls, and Mahony, straight away.” Ruth sat quite still, absolutely horror-stricken, She found it almost impossible to believe that her guar dian, who had pretended to be se firmly on Mahony’s side, was betray: | ing him to his enemies. Lee-Ramsden replaced the re ceiver and resumed his humming. Then, for half a second, his humming checked. Sticking out from the side of a big chair which had its back | towards him, he had seen a small | wf SPORTS BY JOVE FLORIDA’S FIGHT !CAGEFIVES PLAY |PLAY-OFF GAME SONG FOR CONTEST; AT-GYM TONIGHT) CALLED BECAUSE IS ‘BEAT GEORGIA’ .......’. the High School gymnasium, the Army basketball OF DARKNESS piece of blue material—the material | GATORS WILL MEET BULL: of which Rath’s frock was made. Ruth was in that chair. Obviously she had heard every word he had said. He gave no indication of having seen her. Much better let her think, for the moment, that she had not} been spotted. Stil humming, he turned away from the desk and walked out of the :oom. As he left the study bis mind was | working very quickly. He knew that Ruth’s first action would be to warn Mahony of what she had overheard. And he made up his mind that his | first action must be to prevent her from doing so. At the bottom of the stairs that | led down from the study he stopped | and spoke a few words to Mullins, | his butler. Then he wen’ into the! drawing-room and waited for a mo ment After that he emerged into the hall again and called: “Ruth, aad | dear, are you anywhere about?” Ruth, still in the study, heard him @iL As Lee-Ramsden had guessed, | ber one idea was to warn Mahony | DOGS TOMORROW AT JACK- SONVILLE MUNICIPAL STA- DIUM 1 i | | University of Florida meets: ) The Florida Gators and fans will sing “Beat Georgia” when the the ing Bulldogs from the neighbor- | | | state tomorrow at Fairfield Municipal Stadium in Jacksonville. The football battle will draw the largest crowd ever* attending a gridiron game in Florida. Last year, before 21,000 fans, the Georgia Bulldogs were favor- ed to take the Gators by a big of his danger. Very cautiously she emerged from the study, walked : quietly a few paces along the corri-! dor, opened and closed her bedroom | door, and called back as naturally | as she could: “Did you call, Uncle} | 1 Gerald?” EE-RAMSDEN, down below in the hall, smiled. He saw through that little trick of opening and shut- ting the bedroom door. “Yes, I'd like to have a little chat with you. I won't keep you long,” an- swered Lev-Ramsden. Ruth descended the stairs and en- tered the drawing-room. She was | possessed of a wild impatience to get out of the house and telephone to Mahony. “What is {i going out.” “I won't keep you for more than ‘en minutes, my dear,” said Lee- Rainsden. “I want to ask your ad- vice about re-decorating this room.” For ten minutes he talked to her on the subject of decorations, asking questions which she managed to an- swer somehow. When the conversa- tion was over, she slipped on a hat and coat and left the house. Lee-Ramsden heard the front door close behind her, and went into the hall. “Well, Mullins?” he asked. “I rang up Mr. Mahony’s house,” an?were? Mullins. “I told him you wanted to speak to him at once, most urgently, and he was to leave the house at once and meet you In the Lyons tea-shop in 2ar* Street. He said he'd go right away.” Excellent,” said Lee-Ramsden. “When Ruth rings she'll find he’s gone. Just to make quite sure she doesn’t catch him, ring up again and talk to the landlady for a few min- utes—it Joesn’t ma ter much what you say so long as you keep the num- ber engaged for a few minutes.” He himself put on a hat and coat, ard took a taxi to the Lyons tea-shop ir Park Street. Mahony was already there. seated at a table. Lee-Rams- den’s face wore an expression of anx- ous concern as he nade his way to wards him. *“I'm afraid I've got bad news for You—very bad news,” he said. “When my butler rang you up, Ia- spector Kennedy had just left my house and was on his way to arrest you.” “Oh!” said Mahony. “Why has he suddenly made up his mind to arrest me?” Lee-Ramsden hesitated, as if he wardly liked to go on. “I fear that was Ruth’s doings,” he went sn. “The poor child is ter ribly sorry now for what she’s done; she was in tears when 3 left her.” “What has she done?” asked Ma- bony. “She’s told Kennedy that you didnt see her till some time after the murder, and she also told him tha. you employed a gang of crimi- nals in the East End who had im- prisoned a man named Lake and were hiding a wanted man named Flynn, She gave him their address.” (Copyright. 1986.
