Fortunately for me, there had re-
Gently been wave of public criticism
Of the courts for the long delays in
bringing criminal cases to trial, and
the district attorney was moving with
all celerity to bring my case to a con-
clusion. An Indictment against me
for the murder of Daisy Lutan had
been quickly found and the date had
been already set for the trial-one
week hence-so that the period of my
incarceration and doubt as to my ulti-
mate fate seemed likely to be very
brief.
Utterly absurd as the situation was,
accused Of numbering woman whom
I never had seen and hardly had
heard of until saw her lying dead in
her apartments, conscious as I was of
my entire innocence in the matter,
still, as in the solitude of my cell ]

that it could not exist. He was the
only friend I had in all the great city,
and I must leave it to him to work

"What about a lawyer?" I asked.
Didn't the court assign you one?''
'Yes, but he took it for granted that
I was guilty, so got rid of him."
"Well, there amt much a lawyer

you to do but to sit tight and take il

"Humph, that's funny" said Cor,
man abstractedly. "Good-by, I'll SEE
you again tomorrow"
He pounded on the cell door, and 6
guard released him, leaving me alone
to ponder over my plight, and espe
cially over his last question. Wha
had he meant by it?
Where was old Rufus CASTOR?
Once more suspicion of my aget
relative shot through my brain. Wa
it possible that his was the maste
mind behind all this plotting? Cor
man had insisted that the arch Grim
inal behind Wick and the others mus
be some man of intellect. My great
uncle Rufus had brains. Out of
clear sky he had summoned me to liv
in the Granddeck and then had mys
teriously disappeared. Certainly b
