And. when While he is in the drug store later Lisa Loring drops in and asks him casually to come to her home that evening to meet Kentucky Louel- tan of Louisville. This is part of a-well thought out plan. When Lisa learned from the departing Mrs. Jones that Marlborough was to be alone, she thought of making use of the handsome Jones boy in en: that Marlie will not "loosen up" and spend money on Tucky al though he has a hundred thousand left him by "his father.
