"You poor dear," she murmvured "We only heard about it today. I‘m so terribly, terribly sorry." ed Cilly oened the door to admit Mr. and Mrs. Perry, who lived next door in Apartment 1â€"B. Mrs. Perry, a plump, neighborly little woman, held both hands out to Cilly in a motherly gesture. Dolan stood in the living room taking in the situation,. Suddenly she faced Dolan, her eyes burning with indignation anrd terror and despair. ‘"Why are you so determined to accuso Jim? What about Harvey Ames? Me had every opportunity and just as good a motive. What about Hunter? There are a dozen angles that you refuse to consider. What about Carruthers upstairs?

Cilly smiled. "If you remember, I didn‘t give him an opportunity to say very much. Only that he had just got in from Newark Airport and was on his way over here." Dolan looked at his watch, "Well, I‘ve got to hustle and check on some other angles that you‘ve been harping on. If he gets in touch with you again, will you ask him to see me immediately at headquarters? His testimony is still mighty important." "I‘ll do that, sergeant." "Thanks. I bope we‘ll be working "Well, wo‘d beiter take the goldâ€" fish and run along," Mr. Perry sugâ€" gested. "If there‘s any way we can help, sergeant, we‘ll be right next door ... ." Cilly hesitated. Should she tell him about the postcard? It didn‘t matter now, since Jim was cleared. There was a inmp in her throat as she grabbed Mrs. Perry‘s hands in both of hers. ‘"‘Thank you so much for telling us that," she ex claimed. Then, trying to be casual in her explanation, she added: "You konw everybody is under suspicion in a case like this until an alibi is established." Mrg.

"Of course,. 1 haven‘t lied to you yet, but you won‘t believe me." Stones Left Unturned "Was tonight the first time you‘d heard from Kerr â€" or Kerrigan â€"â€" since Sunday?"

Miss Pierce had offered to look a‘ er our fish while we were away. Mr. Kerrigan and another gentleman were here ... " "How did you know which was Kerrigan?" Dolan interruptod. "Why, we had met him before, One Sunday afternoon, we met him with Miss Pierce down at Jones Beach, We all came home togother, So of course when 1 saw him in such & bhurry Sunday night, 1 was glad to offer him a lift, We‘d goiten the car, and had a little bite down in the tavern, and then just as wo started off, wo saw Mr. Korrigan, running toward the subway.
