6/11 "I've asked questions of every uniform in this town, from the district judge down to the courthouse janitor. I DID find that Casey was booked yesterday for having a stolen car and a load of booze in his possession, but he isn't in jail--or if he is, they're keeping him down in some dungeon and have thrown away the key. It was hinted in the police court that he was dismissed for want of evidence; but they wouldn't SAY anything, and so there you are!" We finished our fish in a thoughtful silence. Then, when the waiter had removed the plates, the Little Woman looked at me with a twinkle in her eyes. I believe Casey has put this town on the run. |
