What Lillian Suggested to Madge.

l could not help wondering just
what train of thought, Lillian was
following. for the only Interruptions
were those concerning the frustrated
attempt of Molly Stockbridge to
tamper with my fruit punch, and the
episode of the tea.
She listened in silence to my tale
of the telephone conversation the
frenzied woman had had with me but
a little while before she was found
dead, of the threats she had made, of
the mysteriously severed telephone
wire, and OF, Mr.. Stockbridge's
queer behavior. But at my mention
of he man who had called upon
me she lifted her head for the first
time.
"Ah" she said, drawing a sibilant
breath. Now we come to the cullud
gentleman in the woodpile. What
did he look like-this chap who
claimed to be Mr.. Stockbridge's
attorney"
I described him infinitely. This
time to my surprise she kept
her eyes fixed upon mine as l talked.
- ''You ought to thank your lucky
stars for your memory, Madge," she
said. "Your description Of that man
is as good as a photograph to me
better, in fact-for photograph
wouldn't reproduce some of the little
earmarks you have noted"
Something in her manner made
me think she recognized some of the
pecularities of which | had spoken.
Was it possible that she knew the
mans identity? In my excitement
almost put the query to her, but I
checked myself in time. If she
thought it best for me to share her
knowledge | knew that she would
tell me everything without question
ing. | made her see how vital it
was that the mans identity be es-
tablished. That was all with which
| needed to concern myself. The
rest could be safely left in her
hands.
A little later I found that she
wished more than a description of
the mans person. After sitting
rigidly silent for a moment or two
while she evidently conned and filed
for future reference the information
l had given her, she spoke again,
abruptly:
"Now / want another test Of your
memory, Madge. Can you give me
your conversation with that man
verbatim. Even to the infections of
your voice? l wanted to see if he got
anything out of you"
l do not believe that / have ever
