CHAPTER FIVE

LEAVING Dan in the house, and
getting into his car, Russell drove,
although the Reynolds house was
only a short distance away on Nor
ris street. AS he got out Of the car,
a girl came tripping over the rough
brick sidewalk and greeted him ef-
fusively, catching both his hands.
why, Russell Smith. / am glad
to see you. You haven't called as
you promised, though I've waited
and waited. I've given you up. I'm
sure you were only trifiing with me

vehement. You have a beautiful
voice. Mother and often talk

had a laughing quality as he
watched her.
"Oh, you lawyers. You want
everybody to be so specific, and
then you always use a jargon no
body can understand at all. I'm
sure you're sending all sorts OF
people to Jail"
Hardly. I'm not even criminal
lawyer, much less a prosecutor
How Is your mother?"
"Oh-mother." She laid a hand
confdingly on his arm. Russell,

heart talk with you very soon

not waste my talents here. I neec
