knew that IL he was in this country at
that time he would turn up sooner

were deemed advisable.
After two months of hard work I
located my man in Cincinnati. He
was occupying room in furnished
room house in a good neighborhood.
His room was the second floor front
and by rare good luck l was able to
rent a fiat directly across the street
from whose windows a good and unob-

be had. My observations we're made
more often at night. I would sit In
my darkened fat and keep close watch
on Ulrich's windows. I could keep
tab on his movements in this way for
l knew IL I appeared In the least
curious in daylight he was too wary
a bird to be caught mapping and that
he would move to other quarters.
Disguised as a clerk in modest cir
cumstances I would leave my fiat a
regular hour each morning and return
at the same hour each evening. OF
course I made it a point never to
leave the neighborhood and at all
hours of the day ! was lurking near

itimes, disguised as a plumber, gas

and once or twice I was fortunate
enough to get into his room. A care

to prove that Ulrich was up 70 his

UP an acquaintance with him for he
wasn't one of that kind. His friends
and acquaintances were selected with
care, for he had been caught too often
by such acts of indiscretion.

After three months Of trailing I saw
Ulrich leave his room one morning
carrying a suit case. I suspected the
identity Of the band he was working
with. but Clrich was the man want

the railroad station and without the
formality Of purchasing a ticket
boarded a train bound East. I board

at the rear Of the car he occupied. AS
