"Soon you began to suspect your wife was double crossing you. You were afraid of hot and. decided she had to be disposed of. Axelson was to do the work and a certain night was. set for the deed. Your wife had been out to a gay party that night that's why she wore all that finery. She did not go to her own apart ment after the party, but to 262 Bank Street. "You had sent her word you wished to see'her there, but it was Axelson who met her when she arrived at the house, and It was he who committed the actual murder." "Of course he did!" ferryman declared choking' y. "I didn't know anything about it." "You did and I can prove It. The murder was easy, but It wasn't so easy to dispose of the body. That's a ticklish thing to do in a big city. You ha'dn't given that angle much thought beforehand. After talking it over with Axelson you decided to nak it appear that the murder had 'een committed by an outsider. Axelson was to 'find' the body when he made his rounds next morning.

Summers glared at the cause of his humiliation. "I know you tried to frame Mr. Dale with the pearls and the dictation machine. And the green light. Where is it, Axelson?" The old man, glumly resigned to the inevitable, trudged across the room and opened a little niche' in The green light faded out. sur rendering the field to the candles.
