Mystery of a Murder Was
Quickly Unraveled
BY HOWARD FIELDING

Frank Clifford was heir to large es.
tate, and his uncle, Duncan Clifford,
was trustee, with power to do about as
be pleased. had never met the uncle
but he had been described to me as q
strange animal, part mule and part
/. monkey, incredibly obstinate, yet fan.
tastically unstable Of purpose. One day
received an earnest request from
Frank to meet him that evening In
Branford, N. j., where his uncle lived.
We were to meet In a little hotel al
10 o'clock, and as my train arrived be.
fore o decided to view the quaint old
town by the light Of the moon. One
small white building was led to no.
tice particularly.
1t must once have been the village
schoolhouse, but was now a millinery
store kept by Mrs. Esther Wilson, as
the sign Informed me. I ventured to
guess that Mrs. Wilson lived over her
store, for there was light In the gable
window, from which, as glanced up,
the curtain was pushed partly away,
revealing woman, who lodged back
as If alarmed. 1t Is a curious circum-
stance that happened to notice In the
hand with which she awkwardly thrust
aside the curtain a small drinking
glass.
Taking few more steps, came in
view Of an exterior stairway by which
the second story Of the house was
reached, and at the foot Of the stairs
there was man seated.
This mans attitude, coupled with
my glimpse Of the wineglass, conveyed
a very unpleasant suggestion. This In
ert figure might be Mr.. Wilson, q
drunkard and a squanderer Of the little
milliner's meager earnings, and it was
with this idea in mind that I approach
ed him and laid my hand, not very
gently, upon his shoulder. At the
touch he slid down sidelong and lay
at my feet, and I knew ut a glance
that he was dead.
He was past fifty years Of age and
Of distinguished appearance.
The street was well nigh deserted,
doubtless because Of the unusual cold.
The neighboring stores were closed.

noticed because the proprietor seemed
to be the village jeweler also, and
had thought the combination odd. II
seemed best to carry the body to that
store, and I had set myself to the task

when the door at the head of the stairs
opened, and Mrs. Wilson, as / rightly
guessed, came out hurriedly. She saw
me hosting up the dead man In my
arms. and she screamed.
"The man is ill.," said 1. "Do you
know who he isT'
She had uttered only a single cry.
Now she stood stock still, staring down
at me.
81 am going to take him into the to-
bacco store" said 1.
"No!' She spoke the single word
and then checked herself as with an
effort.
The voice, though heard in so brief
and strained an utterance, increased
my vague impression Of recognition,
but the dead man was becoming heavy
I'm my arms, and decided to follow
my original purpose. 1t was only a
few steps to the store, but nearly a
score Of people gathered about me be-
fore I traversed the distance. Some
one opened the door, and that was all
the help received.
