watch found i'm the vest pocket of
the suit bearing the South Bend
tailor's trademark bore initia IS
wholly different from those of the

the police that his name was Sen

by Sentez were the same as those on

prisoners was absent from his cell.
The manner in which Sentez, who
was a small man, had taken his de-

bars left no doubt of it. OF course

had TO give him the instrument with
