II have misrASsd my copy Of the

This fragment as you will see re-
fers to contract or an agreement.
The memorandum also refers to an
agreement with Franklin which con-
tanned schedule. 1t seems reason
ably certain that this letter was in
tended for Franklin, and that there
was some kind of an agreement in
writing between them. For some
reason Mr.. Wright did not send the
letter, and without knowing anything
about Che provisions of the agree
ment, should commend his prudence
in not sending it. If he had lost his
copy of the contract he was practi-
cally at the mercy Of the other party
to it, and to notify that party of the
fact would have been very poor judg-
ment i have not gone through Mr..
Wright's correspondence yet, and
hope it will throw some light on the
dark places. l half suspect that
there is something of most impor-
tant character behind the surface,
and hope 1 shall be able to get
at it,"
Mrs. Wright remembered that
shortly after the killing of Baxter
she had signed some sort of real
estate transfer, which she did not I'M
derstand, but which her husband had
told her was mere matter of form.
Mr.. Everett was Of the opinion that
this must have been the transfer to
the Shelby Real Estate company.
"And what do you think of my
brothers case?" asked Miriam, who
had been an unmoved auditor during
the preceding conversation.
81 can't give you an opinion on it,"
said Mr. Everett. "You know 1 have
been in the case only day, and I
have done no work on it at all. /
have told Herbert to keep his mouth
shut. Tomorrow we are to have an
interview, and he is to give me his
case"
When Mr.. Everett reached his ONCE
Irving Warde was waiting for him.
The lawyer had known Irving ever
since he was q boy and had always
taken warm personal interest in
him. Whenever Irving got into any
kind of tangle he consulted Mr.. Ev-
erett, and it was owing to these con-
situations that he managed to write
correctly about come abstruse legal
topics and to avoid the shoals of libel
The lawyer had the utmost confidence
? in the young man and knew that
when he unbosomed himself frankly
but privately, no public use would
: ever be made of his opinions.
81 came to see you about the
/ Wright case" said Irving. II have
/ just learned that you will defend him
l. and l want to tell you what know

> ness to listen. Irving gave him al
y account of the striking incidents will
IT which the reader has already beer
made familiar.

evidence being left behind. Herpe
at Wright having in some way con
