 court record said Jim went wild.
 "Well, Dad was convicted. w hadn't a shred of evidence to saw him-at least nothing that woult stand a chance in court. TherI was only one thing-one intangi. ble fragment of Amy's imagina. tion,. our lawyer called it. Never. theleSs, she stuck to it, she fol lowed her one little clew right through-to the end, for her"
 What was that clew, Jim?"
 "The day before the theft, shI .-S visiting some friends in Og. den - that's about 30 miles iron Bluefields. One of the girls war leaving for the East, and Amy went to the airport to see her of There, in the ticket office, sht heard a man order a ticket on tho regular plane three days later a ticket for Chicago. The man. voice sounded familiar to her. Sht remembered 1t as one which haC answered Dads wire at the bank We decided it must have been g fellow named Worth - a new mar at the bank the only one Amy would not have recognized by sight :"
 Where is he now2"
 That's the poker The very night of the robbery, Worth's body was found in a ravine some few miles out of Bluefields, pinnec under his overturned car. Hec been burned pretty badly, but the body was identified to the satis. faction of the court. Call it woman's intuition or what you will, Amy believed that Worth had taken the bonds and skipped to Chicago. True, the court saio there was no sign of the stolen bonds in the burned car. Anc whose body was 1t, if not Worth's? People don't just disappear in Q town like Bluefields.
 50 Amy went to Chicago, on @ wild goose chase, our lawyer said Imagine tracing voice! By this time my father was serving a sen. tence. He was badly shaken by the trial, and seemed to be the one who disturbed him most. He begged, he pleaded with me to leave Utah and start life some. where else, where I wouldn't be linked to him. The police werl still watching me, day and night trying to trace the bonds through me. They've never been found"
 Jim caught his breath a second then went on.
 Naturally, I wouldn't listen to Dad at first, then 1t got to @ point where he made such a fuss every time l visited him that the prison authorities refused me admission Finally, our family doctor urged me to go away, for Q time at least. II for no other reason than to SC, fathers mind at rest. I did Through a friend in Chicago, I got this job in New York. l dis appeared completely. Not ever Amy knew where I was. I kept in touch with Dad only through pr. Blythe. That left Amy work. ing on her own, but she wanted 1t that way. It was only @ will-o' the wisp she was following, and she felt 1t would be better for her If her relationship to me or to Blue. fields were not known by anyone. Her only hope of ever getting this fellow Worth, If indeed he were still alive, was in his believing himself absolutely clear. Remem. Der, Amy's suspicion never came out at the trial"
 Then you think Amy followed him here to New York;"
 I'm sure of that. When vou first spoke of Amy Kerr, won. dered if 1t could be my Amy, but 1t didn't seem likely. The world is a pig place . Then saw her here Sunday nightl cilly, cant tell you how happy was ', wed been outcasts so long. I wanted to tell you then and there, put Amy warned me. Anyway, I slipped her that note your ser. geant found and I met her up- stars on the roof as soon as I left you. There was so much I wanted to know ."
 Did she really find Worthp"
 She did. Whats more she gathered enough evidence to send him to prison. T here was only one thing she had to be able to prove he was Worth. The man had been declared legally dead, you know. However, last satur- gay she saw an item in @ Blue nelds newspaper - she got them regularly - which finally opened her eyes. Some old hermit in the mountains was missing, had been missing for months. Amy felt sure 1t was his body which had
