[cl-l10n-devel] rough shift

[Constance Calhoun]

Probably, he repeated to Markham with good-natured contempt. In this chair reposed the body of Alvin Benson. Anyway, Im deuced grateful to you,and all that, for letting me behold the solemn proceedings. The sooner I get mymen started, the better.
Wed like a postmortem report today, Doctor. The investigation is entirely up to you,Sergeant. I just cant seewhy anybodyd want to kill him. Theadded clarity of vision it gave him seemed subtly to affect hisclarity of mind.
Heath jumped up, and pressed the button she had indicated. Its rather mild, y know, but delicately blended.
Not a soul, sir, the housekeeper answered emphatically.
Its hard to see, on account of the gold tip.
You now see, Vance, observed Markham, the importance of thosecigarette butts.
On seeing Markham he came forwardstiffly with outstretched hand.
Well, Im glad of that, was his perfunctoryreply.
Vances mysterious revolver in the secret drawer. He wasall the time going to parties or giving parties. Ill arrange for a guardoutside and also for a man inside to keep an eye on the Platz woman. We now reentered the hallway and stood for a moment at the foot ofthe stairs leading above. The housekeeper told me he had anappointment and went out to dinner in his dress clothes.
He walked up to itand regarded it closely.
He was a nervous man with a heavily seamed face and the manner of areal estate salesman.
Then, after a few awkward movements, he answered with unhurriedprecision. After a closer inspection of the cigarette, he turnedagain to Vance. Ivebeen vastly amused, even if not uplifted.
It was severely but well furnishedand in excellent order.
Youd be postively dumfounded, Sergeant, at all I did learn,Vance answered carelessly. Nobody in the car, or anyone hanging aroundwho might have been the owner? Markham, heexplained in a low, well-modulated voice. Anyway, remarked Heath, the car story will be good stuff to handthe reporters.
His head was round andabnormally large, and his ears seemed sunken into his skull. I prefer the blushing rose, if you dont mind, Vance protested. Not a soul, sir, the housekeeper answered emphatically.
I told Major Benson Id see him at lunchtime; and I may have somenews for you by tonight.
Maybe those cigarettes came out of thatcase, he suggested.
Thats very kind of you, sir, Heath returned.
