CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE

DANNISTER did not know it, but
ID turning into that alley changed
his plans completely. Bannister
hurried along with no thought for
the darkness. He emerged on Fifth
street, turned left, but had not
taken q dozen steps before he
halted.
A large, low-Swung roadster had
drawn up to the curb. The man at
the wheel was leaning forward,

take you wherever you're going"
Thanks" Bannister told him,
but it's only a step or two. I'm on
nv way to police headquarters"
Coleman nodded. Might as well
ride" he urged, and BanniSter
stepped into the roadster.
Anything new on the murder?"
Coleman asked.
Bannister shook his head mot
that I know Of" he said.
Coleman devoted his attention TO
his driving. A moment later he
brought the roadster to a stop be-
fore the old brick building that
housed central police headquarters.
do you mind if go in with your
he asked. Naturally I'm inter
ested-"
Bannister assured him that he did
not mind in the least, and together
they entered the building.
The man at the information desk
told them Gainey had left a short
time before. Bannister nodded and
went on. Upstairs they found the
same detective Bannister had talked
with earlier in the afternoon. He
shook his head when they asked for
McNeal.
Hes been in and gone out again, |"
he said. The captains hard one
to keep track of. But he'll be back
again, no doubt. About 7:30 you
ought to find him here"
Bannister and Coleman fingered
few minutes, then departed.
COLEMAN said, Listen, if you're
~ nothing else on, how about a
spin out toward Morrisville. was
looking for some one to go with me
when I met you. There's a place
out there where we can get first
rate dinner"
There's nothing I'd like better"
Bannister agreed. A drive into the
country would be just the thing. 1t
would clear the cobwebs out of his
brain.
The two men climbed into the
roadster. Coleman touched the
starter and the quiet, deep-throated
throbbing of the motor began.
Neither spoke until they had left
the congested down town streets be-
hind.
A large building that was new to
him came in sight and he asked
what it was. Coleman told him it
was a branch of a manufacturing
company. recently established in
fremont.
Presently they were on a country
road. Coleman, who had been driv-
ing rapidly and expertly, increased
the cars speed. They fairly shot
over the pavement. The wind
struck Bannister'S face with q
sharper lash now. Cold, biting wind
that made the blood leap in his
veins. 1t was refreshing, exhilarat-
ing.
For thirty, perhaps forty minutes
they rode thus. Then Coleman
slowed the car. Ahead lights were
twinkling and BanniSter could make
out the outlines of building.
This is the place." Coleman ex-
planned. They call it The White
Cottage but it's not such a tea
room as that sounds. Good food
and plenty of it."
THEY left the car and went in
u side. Warm air, lights and the
odor of appetizing foods blended
