babies long separated.
The world in which she lived for
those two hours was a comfortable little
one. Vague figures lowered about its
borders; familiar, faraway voices spoke
out OF space. But in Blanca De
Saulles's foreshortened world there was
room for population Of no more than
two-rcom only for herself and for a
small boy who looked at her out of the
eyes and smiled at her with the smile
of the man for whose murder she is on
trial.
A curtain Of ivy filtered tho light
that came through the one window, al
ready waning when the moment of her
great happiness arrived But the
mother would not have seen the steel
bars that he vines hid had they been
bare With the first word spoken by
that fye-year-old magician, Goodies"
whose other name is John Longer De
Saulles, jr., bars and worries and shud-
dering memories had been banished.
Mamma" He Cried
"Alamma!"-a triumphant shout
was the word
The magician had come on his err
rand Of mercy in style. A couplet
with the wheelbase of locomotive and
the interior fittings Of drawing room
brought him from Westbury to the
threshold Of the Nassau County Jail.
The rest of the trip he made on the
shoulders of a big and jovial private
detective. Harry Dougherty. Of the well
known Deputy Police Commissioner
family.
Up the outside steps. through the
opened jail gates. with camera shutters
clicking and fashlight charges eXplod-
ing all about them, Dougherty carried
his gentleman rider; up more steps,
along an upper corridor TO the door
behind which ears were stralnlng for
the baby rap.
The door opened and closed. With
glad cry little Jack. on the inside Of It
threw himself into the arms Of his
mother.
II was then only 4:15 in the after
noon, but Mrs. De Saulles had already
retired. Since the trial opened, three

Climbs Into Her Bed
So "Toodles" came to her as he used

his old assurance, kissed her, cuddled

The pleasant fiction that had been
contrived no longer went as fact. L't-

mother was not an invalid in hospi-

knew why. He announced his knowl-
