I'd, sold some drawings—a major miracle, I never sold any be- fore or afterwards. And I'd told Marina about it, and how I'd hid- den it, and how i was going to take} «a Gran on‘a bust of ‘a trip. Gran didn’t know anything about it.” “What'd you do?” “For three days I detected,” Timothy said. “Marina had disap- ared, no one at her boarding ouse knew Whete: she'd moved. The third day, I found a key shop where the man had made a dupli- cate of our key for her, and the time he made it checked with Marina’s going and coming to our place one day. She’d apparently taken Gran’s. key. from the hail table, gone, had the key made, came back and left Gran’s in its lace. Carlton — that’s Gran’s to- baceo 1u—he found most of the jewelry in adowntown pawn shop, and gallantly redeemed it. We enever could have. At art school, shortly after, someone displayed a post card from England. ‘X marks our room, wish you were here, Marina and Jack.’ And I discovered they'd .been married a couple of years.

That, in brief, is why we don't like Marina—” » “Ar” when did you discover she was here?” “Tonight, when we came back movies, all God's children the rrounds and vicinity of Octagon House ahd a woman named Hobbs was having hysterics and saying she'd just come back for her pocketbook, but she knew all the time, she knew, she knew!

Perhaps they just couldn’t help it. On the other hand, under the circum- stances, their v matter of fact attitude suspicious. “Aunt Hobbs.” Asey sai en a pain in folkses’ necks I can remember. An’ it’s ‘d to sum her up too.” ‘Combing The House’ N RS. CARR announced tartly + that she personally could sum up Aunt Nettie in several words, and that nothing but modesty pre- vented her from doing so. “She takes jelly and custards to the sick,” Mrs. Carr said. “And after she departs, the sick promptly die. Yes, I know the Aunt Nettie type. But the stinker—dear me, Timmy, you do add such foul words to my vocabulary! But the stinker was identifying the knife that killed Marina as Pam Frye’s—” “She — uh. Was she?” Asey caught himself just in time to keep from adding that Pam had. ad- mitted that the knife was hers. “Yes, I knew it was. I recognized it. But listen here. Pam was away, this afternoon when we all de- cided to go to this clambake, and we left a note for her, and I sonally stuck it on the back door with that knife—it was just sitting ere that knife, on the railing. To- ere I noticed that the note was sti ] on the door, but it was held up by a pin. A common pin. And—” “And obviously,” Timothy chimed in, “Pam Frye wouldn't remove the knife and then pin the note back again! That's just silly. What we think is, someone passing by grabbed the knife, and the same person used the knife to kill Ma- na with, knowing that it would implicate Pam, Doesn’t that seem likely?” Asey admitted that it did. “And: that Nettie!” Mrs. Carr | said indignantly. “There she stood, | when we left, telling hordes of lice and all those reporters that | Pam must have had the knife on her belt this evening, because she had on the belt! That woman is a menace, she should be forcibly re- strained! And so should the police. Did Tim tell you they're simply eembing Octagon House?” “Combing—what for?” Asey de- manded, thinking instantly of ‘the ambergris. That was hidden there, somewhere. ! “This Nettie saw Pam run out of the garage, and she saw Jack re stumble—” What was Nettie doin’ back there—or,” he amended_ hastily, hadn't she gone, or what?” “She'd come back for her pock- etbook, she said. She is,” Mrs, Carr said, “one of those women who al- ways Strews things so she can have a legitimate excuse to return and stand outside the door and find out what's being said about her after she went. Anyway, Nettie started for home, but returned in time to see Pam dashing off, and -Nettie wasn’t sure t Pam hadn't 1 into Octagon House,” “I ain't sure but what Nettie agen hy be forcibly restrained. on “Well, that floor plan—it’s sim- ply ating the police.
