mo, don't, Captain Dawson"
Her voice was firm. I'm sure that
he did not. l heard someone mov-
ing about in this study, after the
shot was fired. I tried to tell the
officers that, when they tried to
smash in the door, but they would
not listen"
They thought you were hys-
terical," Dawson said.
II know-maybe I was. But I
am sure l heard someone in the
room after Arnold was-was-"
She could not keep the tears back.
and Dawson let her weep, without
comment. After few minutes she
wiped her eyes, met his steady
gaze once more.
Tell me, Mrs. Benthorne," Daw-
son said suddenly, did you love
your husband ?"
OdpLdln DdWSOn.
Il have reason to believe"-Daw-
son ignored the interruption-''that
there was more cause for your
marriage to Arnold Benthorne
than love. How long have you been
married ?"
Two years" She was staring
at the red stain on the carpet, near
her feet.
And in that time, you learned
much more about Arnold Ben
thorne than anyone = other than
Benthorne and few more, includ-
Ing myself = knew. You married
Benthorne to save your fathers
business. You admired him then,
you were sure you could learn to
love him. You were willing to
try"
You're wrong, Captain Dawson.
I did love Arnold. I married him
because l wanted TO. He was
everything girl of 20 could wish
for-handsome, wealthy, polished.
Any girl would have jumped at
the opportunity TO marry him"
But you had quarreled with
him-last night? ?"
Yes" she answered slowly.
That's why I had called my
father. 1t was nothing serious
Just an argument over-over
money matters"
Dawson's smile revealed nothing.
He leaned toward Helen Benthorne,
demanding:
And it is true, isn't it, that you
are an excellent pistol shot ?"
Helen Benthorne was out of her
chair, her eyes blazing.
Are you insinuating-?" she de-
manded angrily.
Il am insinuating nothing, Mrs.
Benthorne. Your husband has been
murdered, and it is my job to find
out who killed him" Dawson's
voice was steady, his tone reassur-
ing. Helen Benthorne sank back
into the chair.
Yes, Captain Dawson" she said
evenly, Il was captain of the girls
pistol team at college"
