klTTyHY God whom thou servest
continually, he will deliver

continually, he will deliver
thee" Daniel 6:16). These
words, uttered by a king Of Baby
Ion To a Hebrew captive centuries
ago. show to what extent Daniels
faith had inspired his conqucror,
who was. about 10 cast him into
a den of lions for disobcdience to
a royal decree.
Because of his noble blood and
his great intelligence, Daniel had
been selected by the king for spe-
cial consideration. He had been
placed in high position, which
inspired in group of envious
persons the desire to destroy him.
They made decree that nobody
in the kingdom should ask a peti-
ton Of any man or God, save the
king, for thirty days. The punish
ment decreed for disobedience
was that the offender be fed to the
lions. The king had signed the
decree.
!, Had Daniel been moved by self
interest, or even by human eau
ton. he would have been tempted
to obey it. Instead, he continued
as before to pray openly each day
70 his God. Vixen this was brought
TO the kings attention, he tried
yery hard to save Daniel whom
he loved, but the rule of the coun-
sry was that decree, once made
Nv the king, must remain law.
Daniels faith was put to SUI
prcme test. He was cast into the
den Of lions.
The king spent a sleepless night
and in the morning fastened to
She lions den to learn Daniels
fate. 20 Daniel" he cried, lis thy
God able to deliver thee
from the lions?" Daniels answer
was convincing (6:22): "My God
hath sent his angel, and hath shut
the lions mouths, that they have
not hurt me: forasInuch as before
him lnnocency was found In me
and also before thee, @ king, have
done no hurt"
Because of this remarkable DEM
onstration of Gods power 10 save
his loyal and devoted follower,
the heathen king was moved to
make another decree, that every
where in the kingdom men
tremble and fear before the name
OF Daniels God. Such power had
never been manifested by any Of
the heathen gods, and the king
demanded respect for such deity
as this.

Loyalty to God

Key to the Scriptures" by Mary

In times like the present, wheE
not only individuals but nations
face great peril, it is essential tc
know that even in battle we are
not separated from our God; that
God is able to save us, though
every earthly means of pro!eo
ton fail. The individual WHOSE
strength is in God can and does
come through these ordeals as urr

In prison camps and hospitals, il

who carries the love OF God in his

The fiery trials Of human exper

Of the structure we have beer

He who reads and studies hi
Bible devotedly is arming himself

His prayers are declarations oi

Who Put Body Back?

The testimony of DR.. Quacken-
bush goes far to support this
theory.
If this is true, did Sir Harry,
sleeping, have a large quantity
of inflammable liquid poured over
him and, set afire, and perhaps
struck at the same time. stagger
from bed, cropping, blind with
pain?
If so, why didn't the murderer
finish him off before he had wan
dered around the room, then back
and out into the hall and perhaps
even onto the stairs?
If the murderer then did finish
him off, who carried the body
back TO the bed? The murderer
or some one else?
That point virtually was con-
coded by the crown in its opening
statement. The prosecution will
not claim that the murderer was
there longer than a few minutes.
The testimony of Drs. Quacken-
bush and Lawrence FitZmaurice.
properly understood, constitutes a
legal bombshell.
If the prosecution theory. out
lined by the crown at the opening.
Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1943-10-22

Is correct, the murder took place
around 100 a. m. by a man who
had no welcome in the house, thus
presupposing a furtive entrance
and an immediate escape.
Beneath the body, protected
from fire by the body. was a
charred portion of this news
paper. There was no trace of the
mosquito netting in the wounds.
Perry Mason points out the
most logical explanation. 1t is as
follows:
Sir Harry retired and the viSi-
tor, who was welcome, came to
the house on a matter of the
greatest Importance. Sir Harry
let him in, took him 10 the bed
room, and sat in his pajamas on
the edge of the bed where they
.conversed.
A quarrel ensued. Sir Harry
had been reading the paper and,
in getting up, the paper had been
placed on the bed.
Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1943-10-22
Victim Sat on Paper

Returning TO the bed, Sir Harry
thrust the mosquito netting to
one side and sat on the paper.
The doctors testified that the
fatal wounds ranged forward and
down in the vicinity Of the left
ear. The body was found lying
almost on the back, near the
head OF the bed.
Common sense says II is impos-
sible to strike such blows on a
man lying down.
The evidence indicates that the
blows were struck by the visitor
admitted by Sir Harry while Sir
Harry was sitting on the bed and
on the newspaper.
After the blows, Sir Harry col
lapsed. The asSallant then at
tempted TO remove evidence Of
the crime by a fire hastily
planned and ineffectively executed.
No other explanation accounts
for so many facts as Mason sees
them. Sir Harry would never have
read the paper. then tucked II
under him before sleeping. If the
blows were struck through the
mosquito netting, minute frag-
ments should be found adhering
TO surface wounds.
Other evidences show that noe
turnal visitors used the front en-
trance and staircase where the
testimony shows the light was al
ways burning.
Bit by bit, the picture is grow
ing more definite.

blood from the slain baronet's
face and tried 10 pour wafer down
the throat OF a man who had been
dead from two and a half TO five
hours.
Then, having evidently Smeared
his hands with blood, he ran
around various doors, admitting
he was not certain which doors.
Then comes the startling testi-
mony Of Or. Quackenbush. who
certainly impreSSes Perry Mason
as one not 10 get excited or fail
10 note the pertinent facts.
He says the hand prints on the
north and east walls of the mas
ter's bedroom, where the body
was discovered, were, in his opin-
ion, not stained with blood, and
not made by a man standing erect
but the marks of a man only par
TALLY erect.
Did Sir Harry stagger from
bed and try 10 reach the door,
cropping bllndly?
If so, where was the murderer?
And what happened after that?
If Dr. QuackenbuShs theory is
right, then the prints must have
been made by the corpse, the
murderer or third party.
Exclude the last possibility.
WHY should the murderer move
bent down, cropping the wall?
DR.. Quackenbush thinks some
of the prints are of the left hand,
some of the right.
Consider. then, the possibility
that the corpse got out of bed.
