The man seemed to have little in-| itiative — yet he was rated a good detective, But, as he had said, this case presented so many possibili- tles, had so many sides to it; and Dobbins was an earnest inquirer rather than a brilifant deducer. “I've got to interview more peo- ple,” he sighed as he rose. “But I know where to go for information.
