CHAPTER xv.
Turner's Story.

T~lOLLOWING her evidence the
 testimony of Tom, the cook. made things look bad for Sin - gleton by connecting him with Mrs. Johns intruder in the captains room. He told of Singeton's offer to make him a key to the galley with wire. It was clear that Singleton had been prisoner in name only. and this damaging statement was given weight when on my recall later l identified the bunch of keys. the hle and the club that 1 had taken from Singleton's mat tress- It was plain enough that with Singleton able to free himself as he wished the attack on Burns and the disappearance Of the ax were easily enough accounted for. lt would have been possible also to account for the white figure that had SO alarmed the men on the same hypothesis
 Cross examination of Tom by Mir GOldstein. Slngleton's attorney, brought out one curious fact He had made no dark soup or broth for the after house Turner had taken nothing during his illness but clam bouillOn made with milk. and the meals served Co the four women had been very light '-They lived on toast and tea mostly" he said
 Turner went on the stand the next morning.
