count of the McGrath escape are In
credible, but a complete investigation
should be made of the case neverthe-

it sounds fishy to me, but still that
man McGrath was the sort that would
have his own way at most anything he
went into.
E. D. BUFFANDEAU: Coughs
story is too smooth-too much like
the conversation in a novel. He tells
how the automobile ran steadily, how
two figures sat in the back seat, and
all that He overdid the story and
made 1t sound fishy.
FRED WH1THEY:, Bartlett SIM
ply said I'm going away and walked
