It had cost him at least a dollar to convince the fool that he was the important call from Omaha and that a certain dundering ox could prepare to go back to his troop beginning tomorrow. And tell him was Elizabeth there, and was she all right? It was her father. I listened to Adam reassure him, answer questions, supply the reluctant information that there had been a new murder. I heard the howl of rage, of incredulity, of blasphemy with which this was greeted. Presently Adam laid down the instrument gently, strode to the door with rather weak grin for me and summoned Elizabeth.

How ghastly for Adam if were compelled to report to Colonel Wright that his daughter was ihe prize suspect! For the chain of evidence was growing stronger, link by link.

"It was that Mr. Nelson the big fellow. He drove up and come in hollering for Elizabeth, so I come down'to see what he wanted. He told me about her." A brief spasm twisted the wrinkled face, the hands in her lap twitched "He said he was on his way to the hospital, so I went up and put on me black and followed."

I could almost hear the words chasing themselves around in her mind, but she was silent, in deference either to Adam's rank or to the gravity of the situation.
