if you didn't think of this before you might have been a little more discreet de gras same dress sign a contract would be bad for you it still is my home in my safe up you will most certainly destroy it tonight i'll tell you what i'll do i'll give you must  delafield for nothing i would suggest you consider the most carefully before you se tell me what's happened we arrived only a few moments ago we found your uncle as you see him it has every appearance of suicide i doubt it you know anyone who would have reason to kill your uncle i was afraid of him i was a hard all night i've spent in this house is that all about a present yes all right i get it i was sorry to hear about the death of your dog last night thanks to you that my main chance discuss it with archer coded you know if i had i might have killed him well did you that's your problem you say you would give him a stick yes what kind of stick his favorite and ivory handled one in a one anyway without you are quite sure he got that particular stick with it positive i handed it to him myself did you see him when he time i didn't even notice of people message is beginning to rise i think i know at least a part of what happened here last night about this let's say the brisbane costata for chicago on a night when he knew that no one but he would be at home in mrs train put his hat and overcoat and he came he always hung them in the closet which brought this one yes and that certainly looks like dr but it certainly does but what about the show of course paths they don't look like now well most of them white and you find that when you look in there this morning have you any idea how he got that now do you suppose he would follow someone into the house when i hardly think i was afraid this just a moment hello quite understand about this as a matter of fact mr cole didn't commit suicide he was murdered would you mind coming along with us just a little matter of comparing  but after i'd been in bed for a while i had some noises downstairs i don't in the dark looked down but it was only liang the chinese cook coming and what he customarily knology and entering the house as a matter of fact it's the actually ran i thought cole employed me because i know great deal about chinese possibly and i see that's a very lovely piece of thing out and it how did they get broken i don't know i found the pieces in the wastebasket in the library you falling i stood at my door here and listened then i heard footsteps cross the kitchen and go out the back door and then i walked up the car door and everything was very quiet i opened the library clothes bedroom he was dead fearing that i might be suspected i went back to the library and picked up the broken pieces of the place and together with the poker i took them to my room and knowing that you were alone and i was you were afraid you when did you get it it was in articles pocket what are you doing outside of growing a window last night wanted to be sure that he was alone why for weeks we had been negotiating for the sale of his collection to the museum and no everything to me he kept raising the price but on monday we came to an understanding and i came to the museum that i had succeeded and last night he joined me down because he saw me with this done appeal let me  wondering this afternoon how my dog figure rose could get into this house when he was following me he was defending me when he was struck where did you kill mystical in his bedroom what kind of lipstick do you what's that got to do with it that you has nothing to do with it take me down to the station i think nothing more until i get in the ten night off the killer must have known this when he came in the back door he was so intent upon what he was planning to do that he must have left the back door open because from somewhere heart of the library making absolutely shoggoth not sure cole was alone he knew exactly where he was going and exactly what he was going to do became so side honestly that it must have st cope when he looked up and saw him carefully closing the door is my conjecture gentleman he picked up the doctor again and went out the same way you came in john on top went to the window and raised the shade can you imagine the kellers emotions when from someplace in the apartment house across the vacant lot he looked over and saw the man he thought he had killed standing there at the window he knew them that he had to go back and complete his job to save himself feeling very faint by now from the window to the chair beside his desk where he sat down that he started to remove the chute you remember just how we found him in the very act of removing them before he could get one of them off he died i don't think he ever knew what killed him now we come to the most awful part of the tragedy brisbane call came back to the house w meantime the caliber believing that he had only wounded article came back by the same route to finish his job and brisbane closed the window load the shades and returning to the and you can include me in that sergeant's haven't you got any ideas a top and bottom it's amazing conflicting clues anyone of seven people might have done it we couldn't convict seven people mr vance you couldn't convict one with the evidence you've got then i'm afraid we're completely stopped lake i hate to admit it but it looks that way than to in all the years we've worked together and never heard you say that before and i know i'm sorry i want to be going to do about it i don't know are you sure you've checked up on all the i suggest if you dismiss this case what if miss it yes and all the suspects lose i can just see all the newspapers in this town screaming for a new district attorney that we can probably cover you up all right mr markham i said it was suicide all oh yes but just what i want you to do code but i forgot all about prison but never mind about that now just released this is
