CHAPTER TX
The Story in the "NeNs,

LNROM booth in drugstore on Six
4 teenth street Kirby telephoned the
police that James Cunningham had been
murdered at his home in the Paradox
Apartments. He stayed to answer nc
questions, but hung up at once. From a
side door of the store he stepped out
TO WeltOn street and walked to his
hotel
He passed wrctchcd night The
distress that flooded his mind was due
less TO his own danger than to his anX
iety for Rose. His course Of action was
not at all clear to him in case he
should be identified as the man who had
been seen going TO and coming from
the apartment Of the murdered man. He
could not explain why he was there
without implicating Rose and her sis.
ter. He would not betray them. That,
of course. But he had told his cousins
why he was going, Would their story
not start hunt for the woman in the
case?
Man IS an illogical brcd. Before
Kirby had seen the glove ON tho table
and associated It with the crime, his
feeling had been that the gallows was
the proper end Of so cruel n murderer.
Now be not only intended to protect
Rose, but his heart wns filled with pity
for her. He understood her better than
he did any other woman. her loyalty
snd love and swift, upblazing anger.
Even If her hand had fired the shot.
he told himself, It was not Wild Rose
who had done it-not the little friend
he had come TO know and like so we'll.
but a tortured woman beside herself
with grief for the sister to whom She
had always been a mother
He slept little, and that brokcnly.
With tie dawn he was out on the street
to buy copy of the News. The
story Of the murder had the two col &.
umns on the right hand side Of the
front page and broke over 70 the third.
He hurried back TO his room TO read
