wife, appropriates funds from the
bank Of which be is cashier. Fac
ing discovery, he ices to the Ozark
country, where he engages IN an
orgy OF dissipation which leaves
him broken and crushed in mind
and body.
In a condition bordering on de-
liTium, he WanderG near the cabin
Of Aunty Sue. She takes him into
her home and, with the assistance
Of Judy and Betty 10, nurses the
embezzlsT back % health. During
his illness Kent reveals enough OF
his past for the astuts Aunty Sue
to piece out the story Of the errant
cashier. The bank IN which Kent
worked Is also the dep0sitary Of the
slender funds OF Aunty Sue, and she
hnds that various sums sent by her
for deposit have been taken by him.
And ct this jupcture come the De-
teetlves, trailing the defaultsr 70
