As for the man Mrs. Snyder had seen
after the shot fleeing down the road,
that was easily explained.
II my house had the reputation of be-

After breakfast we went through the
house.
I noticed that all the windows were
closed. Therefore IL was no sudden gust
Of air that caused the slamming Of a

which would give one reason TO suppose
there was anything unusual about the
