There wasn't any. They had heated
the place, when it was a commissary,
with II stove, and the pipe hole through
the ceiling had a piece of sheet iron

They went on, talking about my
hurn-up. Listening in, | learned for
the first time just how it had been
done. Tarbell, through his hold upon
the wclshing Clanahan striker. had
got the details at secondhand. a lead
had been taken from a power wire

stop to light a cigar and to hand out
a couple to the other two gave me
time to chuck that notion and grab an
other. With the muzzle of the auto
matte resting In the crack of the
opened window I took dead aim at
the incandescent lamp in the ceiling
and turned her loose for the whole
magazineful.
Since the first bullet got the lamp
and left the place black dark, l
couldn't see what was happening in
the close little room. I could hear
them Easping and yelling and knock.

C"lanahan threw up his head with

WELL" said Hatch, with growing
irritation, what are you holding back
