CHAPTER HI

The moon had sailed ghoulishly past seven trees before l saw car eoming down the road. From the time that had passed and the way my eyes ached from Straining to see a welcome arrival, I suspected Maudie hadn't gone direct to the inn for help. really don't know why expected her to do things &he simple and direct way. Being her daughter for too many years to mention should have made me eX- pect her to do 1t the hard way. Mys- kery was mystery even if murder was in 1t, and Maudie was never one Co pass by such chance as this
 The car was from the State Police post over in Greenyille and the young man in trim uniform vas, according to his calm intro <iuction, Officer John Antler. He was calm, too, and so was his com panion, Dr. George Orway, had met the doctor at the real estate office when Maudie and 1 had gone there for the cottage keys, and the sight of his familiar face was just like one of his nice white powder sedatives.
 I didn't go over with them when they started in the direction to which I pointed. Instead grap- pied with Finn McCool who was getting his nerve back again, and yanked him into the security and safety of the back seat of the car. Another machine came up and some more men got out and pretty soon I saw them taking fiashlight pictures of the body and searching the ground.

 She looked up at me over the top of her glasses and chewed the tip of her pen handle. Her desk always was a mess of odds and ends so I don't know why my eyes were attracted to the coin lying next to her powder box. It was lucky piece. At least that's the only way can describe it, and I reached over to examine 1t.
