There flashed through Margaret's'
mind a picture of heiself at Joan's birth
day party when she was 11 A lonely
young-old woman -sitting on a log
watching the children toasting marsh
irailows. longing to be with them, one
of them. She saw also the rose col-'
ored sweater ehe wore and which, be
cause of Joan's remark that she was too
old to wear such things, sha had sheep
Is.uly taken off and warmed her fingers
? and her heart?as It lay unobserved
in h?r lap. Now she waited Joan's re
ply to her revolt against being consid

No. 80- A VOICE FROM THE DEAD
Copyright. 1921, by The Wheeler Newspaper Syndicate.
v ? ?
"How long did yon say it has been |
since this man drove you "P to the i
door of the hank?"
"Not more than twenty minutes at I
the outside." j
"That's hardly possible. He's been J
dead for two hours!"
1 >r Malt hazard. one of the most fa
mous . rimlnnllgist* in France, a man |
who has solved a score of the most puz- i
zllng mysteries hy a combination of j
scientific deduction and plain common |
sense, paused for a moment 1 'pressive- j
ly. He did not believe that the man !
whom he was uucsiluiiing was lying, j
fi r Jacques Henof had a record of more
than thirty years of faithful service at
the Surete Hank of Marseilles, and, be-;
sides, there was no way in which lie
could have benefited hy the crime.
lleiiot had driven tip to the Surete
Hank at noon, precisely as he had been
in the habit of doing for the pit at eight
tears. A hundred and fifty thousand
dollars In gold had been taken from the
vaults, to t>e transferred to one of the
nearby branches. The car had started,
had driven to its destination, and the
bags which supposedly contained the
money had been carried inside. When
they were opened, however. It was
found that they contained nothing hut
>ad slugs, carefully weighted in order
to simulate gold coin. Hetiot had Im
mediately rushed out to the ear, only
to find to his amazement that Jules
Ssntmi. his trusted chauffeur, had dis
appeared?though the machine was
standing as he had left It.
\ hurt-, call for I >r Tlalthaaard
brought the criminologists within ten
minutes. n:id his first action had been
to eearc'a the motor . nr thoroughly,
an operation which resulted in tlte dis
covery of the hod;- i f the missing
chauffeur jammed into n vacant space
in the rear'
"Santo?: was killed Just about two
hours ago'" continued I ir TinIthnzarrl.
"probably Just about the time that the
gold wrs transferred. Tell 'tie every
thing that occurred at and before that
tlm? no matter how trivial."
I "San I on called for tr.e at 11:30 as
usual." I'ettot der.ared. "We passed a
few reiimrks about the weather, and I
recall asking hltn whether he thought
wo would have any trouble to passing
through the heavy stmw which had
pr.nti.-ilc blocked the streets. Ills
! reply h.ih that It was fort.inat/? the
i bunk's ???! was ii heavy one. for a light
mchliic would have a lot of difficulty
iti negotiating tile heavy tuts n:ul plow -
lug tnroiigli the drift - Hecause ,vf the
snow, we left my houso about ten
minutes earlier than usual, and. travel
ling slowly, arrived of the bank pre
Irlvely at n'-oji. as usual."
'W<re any* ears standing in front of
the twink?" queried the doctor.
"I don't recall seeing an>. In fact,;
I'm sure there weren't, for; we swung
right up In front of trie door, and my j
view of the street was obstructed. I
got out of the machine, leaving the door |
"pen as I always <io, so that the gold
can he placed inside without the loss
of a moment's time. Just as I reached
the sidewalk, two of the bank porters
! brought "tit the sacks and placed them
j on the Hour of the car. I was Just
nbout to step hack in the machine, when
i a messenger from the inside the hank
informed me that the president desired
j to speak to mo for a moment, and?'*
"Was this messenger In uniform?"
| Interrupted Halt hazard.
'Vertainly. monsieur. I did not reeog
I nlze him. It Is true, but there was no
j mistaking his livery. As T mounted
I thu steps, someone who was coming
out of the hank slipped on the top step
land bumped into me with such force
} that we both went sprawling in the
( snow. He 'was extremely apologetic,
j however, and certainly not more than
I a minute elapsed before I was again on
j my v.ay to the president's office. T
i waited for about ten minutes In the
i ante-room until a messenger presented
the president's apologies and the slate
mem that he would hate to see me later
[In the day. as he was In the midst of a
'most important conference."
| "Was the messenger who brought this
' message the same one who iiad sum
moned you from the car?"
"He may have been or he may not.
With the possible exception of waiters.
! I don't think that there are any class
(of persons to whom one pays less atten
tion than bank messengers. The uni
form is sufficient."
"Precisely." remarked Rilthnzard, dry
ly. "That's what theywere counting
j on AVhat happened therif"
"Not a thing. 1 went out. got In the
, car. was. driven here slowly, but acenrd
, ing to the usual routine, superintended
the removal of the bags to the vaults
of this bank, and was present when the
amazing discovery of the substitution
, was made. Tip you see anything In this
to point the way to the perpetrators of
the crime, Dctor?"
"There are plenty of guidepost,s." was
the answer "and they all point In the
same direction. The messenger who In
formed you that the president desired
to see you. was quite evidently the
{same who brought vnu the message that
, the head or the bank was busy?after
I you had been kept out of the way for a
sufficient leng'h of time. The man who
j 'accidentally' knocked you down was
I another member of a well-trained or
ganization. and the Idea there was to
distract your attention and that of any
I chance passerby long enough to cover
' the murder of vowr chauffeur. Tito sub
l
stitution of the lead slugs for the goltf1"-'
was made while you were Inside the
hank, but they were careful to have *
someone, made up to look like Santon.
*drlve you here In order to give the
! others a chance to make their getaway.- ?
j The moment you came inside hera the
substitute chauffeur disappeared."
"Hut how was Santon killed?" sar-'V
| sisted Renot. "There doesn't appear to
I be a mark upon his body, and he cer-~
talnly doesn't appear to have been
I choked."
; "That," answered Dr. Balthazard, "is ..
I where the organization made a fatal*"'"
[blunder. See--?" and he brushed the
I hair back from the top of the dead--*
[ man's head. "There Is a small hole In
I the top of the skull, drilled as neatly as
I with a bullet, but made without any of
tho noise Incident to the firing of a....
! gun. There's only ons instrument that.,,,,
i will make a wound of that kind?& shoe
j maker's awl. If you'll look olosely, you
will see upon the polished surface of the
i rail behind the chauffeur's seat the out
! line of a human thumb. But not that
peculiar Impression halfway up. It was
| made by a callous place, a sure sign --
! that the hand belong to someone ap- ;
! customed to work at the shoemaker's
i trade. Santon Is dead, but his body <
speaks as plainly as If he were alive,. .
! while the running board of the car
bears additional testimony which ought
I to be extremely valuable.
"Along the side there you will see a,,
i strip of red paint, evidently left" when,,
| the accomplice's car drew up too closely ?
J in order to affect the substitution of the
[ iead for the gold. Santon keeps this
car In perfect condition, therefore tha*
' paint must have been placed there
1 within the past two hours. With the
I clue of the shoemaker's thumb, the use^.k
'of the awl, and the color of the car, we
ought to have little difficulty In round
ing up at least tha principals In the
' case." v
That the criminologist was correct
In this reasoning was apparent within
| a few hours, for a wire alonrf the roads.....
i leading out of Marseilles brought be-.
1 fore nightfall of the stoppage of a big ?
i red touring car, along the side of which ?>
[ there was a deep gash In the paint, and

| convict, who had been employed as a
1 shoemaker during his term in prison.
! together with three others well known
I to the police. Inside the car, concealed
[precisely as had been the body of the
