when Clieek read of Jan Wright's

upon hltn that he had in his keeping
thu watch of the dead woman and
that lie, probably ah n , knew tire
identity of her murderer
The police wero notified A son of

keeper identified the watch at a

The watch had a broken crystal nnd
the hands had stopped ut one minute

Froisy at oj;eo identitled it as having
belonged to his mother. He had not
pot bed its disappearance the night
before, else tlio motive of the crime
would have been nt once apparent.
