feel that religious services
have no right to claim their

to reach the island, they discovered
that Mrs. Lauder had paid ali the
boatmen a small fortune to tie up
their boats indefinitely, thus en-
abling Tunney to get to the the
mainland without fear OF detection
by the newspaper men.
The reporters offered the boatn1en
tempting sums for a skiff. but all
in vain. One of the sboatmen, Err

ceeded to Johns Island. There

returned to South Bristol and sped
to the railroad station in an auto.
mobile. They made the fourteen.
mule trip in II minutes, . speed OF
nearly so miles an hour. but when
they got there Tunney was gone.
AT the station it was learned that
Tunney had attempted to conceal
his identity by wearing glasses and
a soft felt hat, with the collar of
his grey coat pulled over his face.
