INC. nriT n v it , .. '—~~ ■_ CHAPTER X Hunter Dent gawped at Sheriff ShpHff°nK "What d0 y°'J mean, Sheriff—burn out the seat of my pants? What is all this, anywav’” Anderson, grinning, unlocked *the cell door. ‘‘Come along. You’ll know all in good time.” Hunter followed the officer a block along the side street to the court house. In a few moments they were with Judge Elkins. Young man,” Judge Elkins sa,1“> y°u are free. Go your way.” . What—what do you mean’” Hunter gasped. ”1 mean, how did this happen?” “Your bond has been posted, and antil your case comes up for trial you may come and go as you please. t ‘‘But~who went on my bond, Judge Elkins?”. Hunter still was lazed. Your bondsman wishes to re main anonymous. You are dis missed?’ “Well, what do you know!” Hunter said wonderingly as he .vent out into the free, open sun shine. He stared all about, a: the sky, the trees, the busy little city. Looks good to me!” he muttered. While in jail looking through his :ell window at the slum section where the stick-up had been staged an idea or two had hovered ’ in Hunter’s mind. He had thought a ireat deal about the questions: Why the money moving at such a -iipe of night, where was it going aow did Junior know beforehand :he route of the messenger. What vas it all about, anyway? A hy pothesis was growing in his mind Maybe it was far-fetched. But he Aas up to his eyes in the mess, and it wras up to him to do all he muld to get out of it. From the newspaper Hunter had the place where the girl, Sally Ki *er, liv%d. He was remembering something abottf Sally, too. When he had first read the name it was sddly familiar to him. Then he remembered. Sally Kiker was Sam Doolittle’s girl. Sam was the son of Squire Doolittle, the constable and owner of the little store out Hunter’s Way. Hunter and Dool t tie were good friends: and it was more than likely that Sam Doo little' was the escort Sallv bad so far shielded. It was a lead worth following. * * * Hunter made his way there. Once past the bad corner the street became somewhat better and Hunter knocked at the door of a small but neat house of recent FHA vintage. Sally herself came to the door. She was a buxom girl, with a milkmaid freshness; she was the authentic thing, in stead of the synthetic type that Red Ballard had been. “Good morning. This is Hunter Dent, from the Ballard Estates. You are Miss Kiker? May I come in a few moments? I wanted to talk with you about the bank-mes senger matter.” He added quickly, seeing the swift hostile change that came upon her. “I happen to have been put in jail charged with that murder, Miss Kiker. I’m out on bond now. I had no more to do with that unfortunate matter than you did. I have to find out all I can about it, because my case will come up at the winter session of criminal court, and—well, you can see how it is with me.” He smiled his best smile. “I know Sam Doo little,” he added. “I know his fa ther very well.” “Well, Mr. Dent!” she smiled. “Will you come in?” She had read about him^in the paper, as he had about her. They talked of the Doolittles, father and son. “If you’ll call Mr. Doolittle and ask about me I am sure you will fell free to help me. What I wanted was for you to tell me ex actly what you saw the other night; better still, go with me and let us go over the ground togeth er.” As soon as I can change my dress,” she said. He heard her telephoning Doo little’s store. When she reappeared she was cordial. Hunter found her one of those people you seem al ways to have known. They walked up the street to the corner. Cross ing to the east side, they stopped at a dark doorway which led into the stairs mounting to the top of the unpainted frame vacant store here. “If I tell you who was with me you won’t give me away?” she asked. “I’ve already guessed it was Sam. Go ahead— don’t know, so you’re safe.” “Well, the other night we were coming from the picture show up town. This is a pretty bad part of town—you know that. We heard somebody coming along. Sam pulled me in the door here.

We saw a young fellow come past. He was walking fast. He carried some thing under his. arm. His hat was pulled down over his face, so we couldn’t tell anything about him much. He had dark clothes and maybe a colored shirt. He looked clean. Sam thought he had his hand in his coat pocket as if on a gun. You know how they keep them ready. I couldn’t tell, my self. " Just as we were about to come out and start off again, here came somebody running like everything. I saw a good-looking young man We jerked back in here. This time all dressed up. Had on a silk hat and tails, and I saw the Distol in his hand. He was yelling at the one ahead to halt and stick ’em up—you know how they do those things. Then it just happened so fast you couldn’t make heads nor tails of it. Shooting and yelling and when I looked out, like this— from right here,” and she stood so she peered around the edge o the door facing, at an angle across the street, “I saw two other men. They seemed to come from around the corner of the pressing shop there, or maybe they could have been hiding in that stairway yon der.” *ou Know, though, there were two?” Hunter said, “I’m sure,” she said. “What did they look like?” “W-weli, the street light here is so sor :y I couldn’t tell, very well. Besides, they were under the awn ing there, and you couldn’t see much.” “Wound > c.n say thev were iust about of a s.ze, and kind of sleek like, and maybe a little under av erage height?” She neaderl, adding. “And dressed r. dark, too They Iooki J almost dirty. But they were not. They were fixing the street, there —putting own fresh tar and grav el. There was a long plank on barrels across the street, and these kerosene flares. Well, the shooting started and I was so scared I didn't know which way was straight up. All I seem to remember was the dressed-up young man running out of sight that way,” she pointed down the side street, toward the river road. “He must have had a car down there somewhere. I heard it when it went off with a big roar. And that’s all I can remember. Sam and I ran. We saw the man lying in the street, where he had been shot and killed. I lost my ‘ purse in the door here, or they’d never have known I was about. Well, that’s the way of it.” “What of the two men who came around the corner?” “We never saw them any more. Not a sign. I think the shooting scared them away.” * * * Hunter took her home, and went back uptown. He took a taxi to the hospital and was allowed to visit Junior a moment. The boy grinned at him wanly. He was still too weak to talk. As he went out on the street, Red came up in her car. She was the very person Hunter wanted to see, though he just then thought of it. He got in with her. “Did you go my bail, Red?” he demanded. “If you must know, and I sup pose you must, it was Hank Tem ple’s father, at the bank.” j “Red, I’ve been over that ground down there, and I have a theory. Junior was in that crazy stickup, all right. He was the young m'an in tails who started it on a bet. But the parties who changed the joke into a tragedy were not fool ing. They saw a chance to pick up seventeen thousand bucks. And I O D A Y’S WAR QUIZ 1. The altering yellow and red stripes of this insignia show that the wearer is in the Marine Corps.
