radio flash came through last
night"
You don't mean he claims
every unidentified corpse is
wife VINO died years ago." Red
asked incredulously.
Il mean just that"
Jigger asked, How did Susan
Hunter die?"
Pneumonia"
Buried Thereon was the body
shipped homer"
Susan Hunter was cremated
in Frisco; ashes were shipped
back" He added, In an urn that
cost old Matthew Hunter five
grand, at least.
Jigger said, THAT probably ex-
plains Willie's passion for claim
ing JooieS. A wife went away,
and jar of ashes came back.
Willie Just can't accept the swap"
He paused, and Their inquired,
How come Willie's name IS
Hunter, like his father-in-law?"
Same family. Old Man Hunter
is also Willie's uncle. Willie and
his wife were cousins" Rumely
took off his wide-brimmed hat
and -;lopped his brow. Now, I'll
ask you favor. Nobody wants
any publicity in this, so I'd appre-
ciate it if you fellows kept it all
under your hats. The Hunter
family's somebody, and Willie is
big headache to everybody"
A smile floated over the waves Of
cheek. Besides, if Willie ever hit
the newspapers as a freak item,
Old Man Hunter'd call in my
badge Do I have your promise?"
Jigger nodded, his earlier dis
like somewhat dispelled. Rumeiy
voiced mis- thanks, extending a
wet hand to Jigger and Red in
turn They watched him go off,
moving like a vast Easter egg on
a motorized float.
Red spoke first. How'd Rumely
strike your"
Jigger hesitated. "Unpleasantly,
mainly. Crafty sums him up. That
god-awful eandor was hribe. "
Red frowned. But does Willie
connect with our case?"
II doubt it."
"Why?"
Because the police evidently
didn't think so. Because Willie is
what he is--all fantasy and no
fact"
Red nodded. satisfied. aGood
enough. And exit Willie from our
scheme of things" He consulted
his watch Its almost three. Call
it a day?"
"one more stop-over, Jigger
said restleSsly.
"CL.S.?"

He motioned to the Imperial.
Climb in"
Red opened the rear door. jig
ger got INTO the drivers seat and
turned The ignition on.
There was an uneasy rise in
Reds voice. Cabs taken, Jigger."
IIGGER swung around and stared
y into the depths of the cab.
Captain PRESCOTT
The mouth was a straight. de-
termined line-at odds with the
feathered speech. Il don't mind
your associate riding along, jig
ger"
Jigger set his teeth. Where to,

Headquarters"
A while later, Jigger observed
coolly. Return bouts kind of
sudden. It was just last night"
You're leaping to conclusions"
There was a pause, and then the
feathered speech, rs there any
thing you'd like TO tell now-to
supplement your statement OF last
night?" The speech pointed slight
~. Something nelO. maybe?'
1t pressed Jigger, like pointed
blade, mo, nothing"
mo conclusions from your turn
at Bellevue?"
Jigger swallowed. THE same
conclusion you no doubt reached
the nalf-dead gent there was
the beggar who hired me to haul
a trunk"
Prescott turned to Red. Pick
anything up of interest in that
hour in .he Morgue?"
Red stammered, 'J-just the
usual run of wacky stories" i
Jigger said artificially, Awful
waste of manpower keeping tabs
on us"
Prescott said serenely, You fell
lows deserve it. It's been an ed
ucation watching the industry
you show on a case"
Jigger pulled to the curb in
front of Police Headquarters.
Prescott got out, then poked q
dollar DILL through the drivers
window. Jigger pushed it back.
Nonsense" Prescott insisted.
1T was my party"
Jigger made change. Prescott
said, "One things had me woIl-
dering all day, Jigger. Who pays
for all the dead mileage you run
up-Charlton Street, ChriStie's,.
Bellevue, the Morgue." He went
off.
Jigger laughed scratchily,
quite a cop, Prescott. Makes an
art of nerve warfare. But don't
let him scare you"
TRY telling that to my stom-
ach." Red shivered. ITO me the,
man means just one thing-sud-
den arrest"
