CANADA I BEGIN HERE TODAY The body of Douglas Raynor is found in ho early evening on the flour of the sun room at Flower Acres, his Long Island home. Raynor has been shot, through the heart. Stand- inp over tho dead man, pistol in hand, is Malcolm Finley, former sweetheart of Raynor's wife, Nancy. Eva Turner, Raynor's nurse, stands by tho door u-im her hand mill on the light switch. In a moment Nancy appears, white- faced and terrified. Orvillo Kent, Nancy's brother, comes in from the south side of the room, and then Erra Goddard, friend of Finley, with others, enters ujKin the scene. "It was either Mr. Finley or Mrs. Raynor who fired that shot," accn.^cs Nurse Turner. At last, to the ,<ati.sfa':lir,n of the party, the police arrive on the scene to con- duct an invcsligatif.n. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY The chief, whose name was Pell, remained in the sun parlor with tho physicians, but after a few moments there, Dei:>ctive Dobbins, who had been assigned to the ease, came into the living room and looked inquiring- 1 yabout him.

"Then, will you not let her rest a few moments, and return to her later?" Goddard's manner showed only I concern for Nan's comfort. "Yes, I will do that. I will talk to Miss Raynor, and Mrs. Raynor can pull herself together. Tell me any- thing you can of the matter. Miss Raynor." "I went upstairs to my room, ami I sat a while .oolung oat of the window I saw Mr. Kent and Miss Dolly Fay cross the lawns tfward her home, and I .saw y\v9.

The others were introduced, both Finley and Kent acknowledging their names by the slightest of nods and some .servants were designated. Detective Dobbins sat down and as ho rolled his beady black eyes from one to another he rubbed his hands as if in active enjoyment of the situation. "Who was tho last to see Mr. Ray- nor alive?" ho cgan, in a most work- manlike way. "That is the regulation question,'' Mr. Dobbins," said Goddard.

Ho looked like a man suddenly de- frauded of his rights. "It's not a question of suggestion, Mr. Dobbins," Goddard went on, suavely, "but of investigation. And a rational investigation must consider all possibilities." "Quito so â€" quite so." Detective Dobbins began to wish that Mr. God- dard had never been born. "Well," he resumed, after a mo- ment's thought, "let us put it this way then : Which one of you were among the last to see Mr. Raynor alive?" ".\h, that's etter," and Goddard smiled approval. 'I can answer that for all of us. We were all together on the terrace having tea. After tea we still sat there until dusk began to fall. Then .several neighbors who wero with us started for their homos. And we, the members of the family and household, dispersed to our rooms to dress for dinner." "All of you here present were at j "<>'j; tea with Mr. Raynor?" "Yes," said Goddard, anc' nodded. "Who left the group fir.H?" "The guests from the neighboring houses,'' Goddard replied. "And next?" "I did," Orvillc Kent said; "I went with one of tho guests, a young lady from the Fay place, next ta this." "And after Mr. Kent?" Dobbins queried, his lack eyes taking in the expression on each face. "I think I went off next," Finley said, "unless Miss Turner, the nurse, preceded me. Of that I'm not quite sure." 'I'm sure," Nan said; "Miss Turner did go l>eforo Mr. Finley â€" she went to the pantry to see about some malted milk for my husband. And then my husband rose and went himself into the house." "And from the house into that room â€" that sun parlor, I believe you call it." "Yes," Nancy agreed, "that is, he must have dono so. uBt when he left me he went into the hou.se." "You were then alone at the tea table, Mrs. Raynor?" "Tho tea table had been removed, Mr. Dobbins, some time since.

Then I heard the shot, and I didn't at first think anj-thing was wrong. I thought of somebody cleaning a gun, or shooting a bird â€" not definitely, you know, but those thoughts went through my mind.
