The cops OF the Mulberry street station

tered by. One moved on down the street
and the others gathered in the entrance Of
the store Two at once boosted the thirdup

it and climbed into the store.
Thwaite peeled off his coat and hat and
assumed the pose of drunken man. He
reeled from his hiding place over to the
store

the men.
