Mrs. s. E. Palmer, one Of the neigh

road from the Keet home, was sitting
on the front porch of her home the
night Of the dance at the Country
Club. Shortly after the departure OF
Mr.. Keet and his wife she decided to
take a walk around the block which Is
occupied by Meadowmere, the Keet
home. She says two men were Turk
ing in the shadows of shrubbery at
the southeast corner of the yard. A
little further she noticed another man.
She encircled the block, and as she
started to cross to her residence she
heard a motor car start away from the
opposite corner, where it had been
hidden in the darkness. While she
did not see the men enter the house,
she believes that they were the kid.
