He had long been dreamin' of a home in Pointview. "They used to say that Bill was a fool, but he proved an alibi. Went West years ago an' made a fortune, an' thought it would be nice to come back an' finish his life where it began, near the greatest American city.
He knew now, by glancing at the lines he had written himself, that those other notes had been typed on the same machine. He guessed that it had been George Lerton, the broker, who had sent those notes and the money to the barber and the merchant. Why had George Lerton been so eager to destroy his cousin's alibi?
"Do you think ?" Rouletta turned her white face toward the cashier's cage. "More 'n likely. He was bitter he made a lot of cracks around the Barracks. The first thing the Police said when we notified 'em was, 'Where's Phillips? We didn't know the boy was out until that very minute or we'd 'a' done different. We'd 'a' left the Count in the drift and run Phillips down and framed an alibi.
When the miscreant makes his next appearance in person, he stands on one leg, with joined palms and a piteous bleat, and pleads an alibi. He was absent about the marriage of a relation, and his brother washed the clothes. So your lava falls back into its crater, or, I am afraid, more often overflows the surrounding country.
This maxim, Quod facienti, quod in se est, non denegatur gratia necessaria, appears to me to have eternal truth. Thomas Aquinas, Archbishop Bradwardine and others have hinted that, in regard to this, something comes to pass of which we are not aware. XIV, De Veritate, artic. XI, ad I et alibi.

"Hardly, for he testified that he went to the office that evening, and Miss Ellicott said that he told her he was going." "No alibi and no evidence yet," said Mr. Dana. "It's coming," said Quincy. "Mrs. Larrabee with whom Wood boarded testified that he had a heavy oaken staff and that he took it with him when he went out that evening because he had sprained his ankle." "Did Mr.

Half the reservation can prove I was there all the evening so of the four of us, that lets me out. Crosby and Curtis were in command of the pay escort that's their alibi and as far as I can see, lieutenant, that puts it up to you." Ranson laughed and shook his head.
