Winters had phoned you 45 minutes later reporting the suicide of Paul Torrington, his and Banker's employer and owner of the cabin the three men were staying in during this hunting trip. The two young men lead you along a narrow, winding trail circling the foot of the mountain until finally you arrive at a wooded spot where Torrington lies dead, a bullet hole in his right temple. Beside his body lies a .45 gun, which you pick up carefully in your handkerchief and examine for fingerprints with your power glass. Then you take fingerprint impressions of both Winters and Sanker: "The only prints on the gun are yours, Sanker," you remark, "although you have already told me this is Torrington's gun." "Oh, that's easily explained," says Sanker.
