Felderson's death that I can't understand, myself, things that were entirely unlike me but I feel that I would be a traitor to my brother-in-law's memory unless I follow every possible clue. He had only three enemies and one was Zalnitch, who threatened him. Isn't it only natural that I should suspect him?" Her look was entirely sympathetic as she replied. "I know how Mr.
He took the bullet I had extracted from the back of the car and looked at it as though he expected to find its owner's name etched on it, after which he examined the holes in the back of the car and in the foot-board. Then I eagerly related our suspicions against Zalnitch, but he shook his head. "This would seem to clear Mrs.
He examined the back of the car minutely, and at the end of his scrutiny he turned to me. "I'm not at all sure that we were justified in giving Zalnitch a clean bill of health so soon. It is just possible he had a lot more to do with this than we supposed." While we were talking the coroner drove up.
"The papers gave a long account, but said it was an accident." "Zalnitch did it, Mary. At least, I'm almost sure it was he." I told her what I had learned during the morning, and as I talked, I finally touched on Frank Woods' strange words of the night before. "You don't think he had anything to do with it, do you, Bupps?" "No," I said.
Receiving a nod of consent, I related to them as briefly as possible my conviction of my sister's innocence, her cry of danger to her husband, and the coincidence of the black limousine on the road at about the same time as the tragedy. I also told of the enmity of Zalnitch for Jim and of his presence with the others in the black limousine. The foreman of the jury leaned forward.
At the time, Jim had received a lot of threatening letters, just as every other American who denounced the Germans before we entered the war had received them. Nothing had come of it, of course, and after we went in, the whole matter dropped from public attention. Zalnitch had been sent to prison, but his friends had worked constantly for commutation of his sentence.
I have no time to waste, even if you have. I know who you are. You're the brother-in-law of Felderson, the blood-sucking millionaire who sent me to jail. I won't talk with you, do you hear?" As he grew more excited I seemed to grow cooler. "Zalnitch, I'm going to swear out a warrant against you for my brother's murder."
"When you made that proposal, I was very angry because I resented your thinking I'd spy on my employer. However, your suspicions are so ridiculous I feel it is only fair to tell you that you are wasting your time." "What makes you so sure that Zalnitch had nothing to do with it, Miss Miller?" "Because I know he is utterly incapable of doing anything of that kind," she answered. I half smiled. "Mr.
"We know Helen didn't do it. Don't we?" "Ye-es." Her tone was not convincing. "Well, then, whatever we say can't hurt her. And we're bound to find out who the guilty persons are." "But, Bupps, who could it have been?" she asked anxiously. "I still think it was Zalnitch and the men who were with him, but it might have been Woods. I'm going to find out everything he did last night.
"Inspector," I said, "I am fully convinced that the men in the black limousine are responsible for my brother-in-law's accident." "What makes you think that?" he demanded, eying me narrowly. "Because all of them had reason to hate and fear my brother-in-law. Zalnitch, since his release, has sworn he would get even with Mr. Felderson for putting him in prison. Metzger felt the same way.
