He reports the occurrence to the local oOlice. and then to Director Of Poliee Oon nora. who ia much perturbed. Mean while Dufreane haa made a aly change In a bid for a certain large contract. Chapter Thfee DEFENSE PLANS /TONNORS abruptly changed the trend of the conversation. “Where was Marklson while all tbl* was going on?” he demanded. ‘‘lt wasn’t Marki9on’s fault. He left the Austerlltz with me tbi* morning and Code a? far as the Old Pike Road. Everything Was quiet, and 1 didn’t see any necessity for his tagging at my heeis all day. so 1 dropped him there. 1 had taken Mrs. Dufresne’s car and no one but she knew where 1 was going. N6 one, not even myself, knew wbat time I would be coming back. Of course,” he added, thoughtfully, “this may he just a coincidence and have nothing to do with the crank letters, but It looks as if those bullets had my initials on them.” Connors nodded and picked up th* telephone. “Tell Markison and Bar ry to report to me at once,” he or dered . Then he leaned back, chew* ing on his cigar. ‘‘Now, give me all —•* '• I- mn "Now give me the details of th* sheetlhß-’* the details about this shooting," ha suggested. Dufreane recounted the meager details of the mysterious attack. “As you know, Jim.” he continued, “Markison has been trailing arouhd with me for a week. Arid knowing tbat these anonymous penmen sel dom try to carry out tbelf threat*. 1 went about my business as usu*l. “When my wife and 1 came baek to the city last autumn, we delayed opening the bouse. Mrs. Dufreen* took a notion to have some of the rooms re-furnished. She bns been visiting some cousins out In the sab urbs. while 1 put up at tbe Auster lits as a matter of convenience. “I’ve had a heavy round of visits np-State. Yesterday 1 decided to see Grjdley about tbat Lee County job. 1 called up Mrs. Dufresne before 1 started this morning. You have heard wbat happened on the way back.” To all seeming, tbe Director of Police was more upset and con cerned over this attempted murder than tbe man who bad eo narrowly escaped death. Dufresne was too tm portant a man, both financially and politically, not to warrant every ef fort being made to protect his per sonal safety. TWO of tbe Detective Burean’n best men had already been de tailed on this affair after Dufreane had produced his series of crank letters. Tbe result bad been entire ly negative. But now that this threat had materialised In a lethal aspect, something drastic must be done, re gardless of the difficulties surround ing tbe tracking down of this type of lawlessness. Presently Connors’ secretary sab ered in the two plalnclotbesmen. They saluted their Chief and watted expectantly. Dufresne exchanged nods with them, then IU a freak cigarette and withdrew to tbe win dow. “Markison." Connors began, “yon’rs trailed Mr. Du f res ns for a week, or cloee to it What have yes to report?" "Nothing, sir.” the detective aw swered, readily enough. “I ll swear there was no one following him shoot while i was on the job.
