FRAZIER'S ACCUSATION
CHAPTER VII

Hunter Dent stifled an oath.
Now he knew why he had never
cared for Strickland Ballard $
brother-in-law. Hunter wanted
to hurl something through the
window and bash his face in.
"Tll explain why ! have a
bunch Dent is our man. Neal
Frazier went on. We've been
moving on the .heory that Jun
ior must be protected at any
cost. If he lives, we must save
him from - well, you know
what / mean. If he dies, we have
to keep his memory clean. What
are we saying? Simply this, that
Junior Ballard killed this bank
messenger, robbed him, manag-
ed TO get away, though he was
shot by the police.
But that is absurd. Warwick
would have heard Juniors car.
The car would be here. The
tracks Sheriff Anderson saw this
afternoon would have been Jun
ior's, when instead we know
Dent assured the officer they
were from his car; that he alone
had a key TO the private gate.
Anderson was troubled about
the clean tread in Dents tire,
until l explained that Dent took
very good care of his automo-
bile and it would require but a
few minutes TO wash it.
Hunter Dent evidently was
not here last night, or early this
morning, for when Junior reach
cd home he would most certain
~ have gone TO the office where
Dent sleeps. II he were in trou-
BILE I am certain he would. In
stead he came to his room. Red
told me that Dent himself said
no one came TO see him during
the night.

where Junior had been sitting.
Made by a heavy caliber re-
vOlvcr, too Hunter unused. 1t
seemed obvious the shot was
from one of the policemen $
guns
Junior Ballard had been mix
ed in that stick-up. There was
no way out Of it, Hunter had
tried to believe it was just a
gag, done on a wager. II could
have been. But the more he
pondcrcd the thing, the more he
had to admit that fundamentally
Billiards. boy, spoiled and pam
pCred allowed tC run wild, was
weak and maybe criminal. If
only Hunter could account for
the missing money. There he was
Stumpcd. Maybe he couldn't see
straight when he looked in the
safe Maybe he just dreamed the
bag and its contents had disap-
pCarCd.
He got into the truck and
drove the car to the barn. He
backed it in, and hoped until
he could find better hiding
place the big barn would keep
the ScCrC t. He had a feeling
every step ne made was that
much further on a fools Jour
ucy. Why should he DC shielding
Junior II was because ne loved
the boy. Why did he. somehow,
have a contrary affection for the
kid IL got back 10 Red. She,
too, was one ne was trying to
do something for. That did not
make particular sense, for she
and TISdalC we're going to be
married. They might fight, but
the BAlard-TiSdale money had
to be kept intact.
With these nuddlcd thoughts
for companion, Hunter Dent put
the truck in the garage next to
the barn, and walked through
the heavy darkness toward the
house. Save for low light in
the rear, i'm WarwiCt'S quarters.

Hunter entered the yard, how

They were not loud, but they
were charged with anger. Now

NICOL SMITH
HERE SUNDAY
Burma Road" Author
Speaker at Second Con-
gregatiOnal Forum

Nicol Smith, world traveller, au-
thor OF Burma Road" and lecturer
will present his newest and finest
lecture Martinique and French
Guiana" illustrated with 16 nm.
colored motion pictures at the
Forum OF the Second Congregational
Church on Sunday evening, Febru-
airy is, at 7:30 o'clock. Supplement
ing the colored motion pictures OF
the life and scenic charms Of Mar
Unique and French Guina will be
Mr.. Smiths own account of his ex-
periences in these two Vichy pos
sessions In the Western Hemisphere
during the summer.
He is one of the few Americans
to have obtained visa to Mar
Unique in recent months and the
first ever allowed to take colored
motion pictures In French Guiana.
In the latter colony, he was the
house guest Of Governor and Ma
dame Chot and had official permis-
sion to photograph anything he
pleased, including the interiors OF
the prisons on Devils Island. Some
of the pictures to be thrown on the
screen besides life in the famous
penal colony are a fight between
mangooSe and a fer de lance ser
pent called Trigonocephale, ma
tive dance, carnival scenes and
views Of the great harbor at Fort de
France, the capital of Martinique
where battleships are on patrol and
hundred ariplanes made in the
United States and sold to the
French before the Germans subju-
gated Western Europe in 1910, are
stored. There are also a particu-
larly lovely sequence portraying the
brilliant native flowers found in
Martinique, including the wild Or
chids, tiger lilies, an abundance of
roses and the famed Bougainvillea.
Mr.. Smith, whose other jaunts
have taken him into the Eastern
Mediterranean and the Far East,
left the United States by plane late
in May and flew directly to Marti-
nique. From there he went on to the
Guianas. His current trip was his
second to French Guiana which he
first visited several years ago to
collect material for his book Bush
Master" and to collect material for
a scenario which he sold to Warner
Brothers under the title of 'The
Widow Of Devils Island"
Nicol Smith has made a career Of
travel since he was seventeen. He
has travelled widely in Europe, in
Asia, and in Africa, as well as in
Central and South America. He
spent the summer of 1889 in French
Indo- China and Burma, collecting
material for his book THE Burma
Road" and his motion picture OF
the same title. A previous expedi-
ton In the Orient in 1887 took him
to the Island Of Hainan, which then
belonged to the Chinese but which
has since been occupied by the
Japanese and fortified as naval
and military base.
His pictures OF the summer 1941
expedition have been filmed by
loren Tutell Of the Shed Aquarium
of Chicago, who is one of this
country's best-knoWn color Pho
tographers.
