Wait now I have no reason to arrest you right now But I will and I mean it if you do anything out of line Well, then keep an eye on me. You're a hot-headed impetuous man My department and I have stood for all the insults and badgering we will from you I thought mr. Grover made that clear to you. Mr. Grover told me you had to be cautious and we do Your case against William Meadow is nothing but notarized statements from people who could have said most anything Your accusations as regards the murder of that poor girl bear consideration, but they also are very Inconclusive what you haven't done anything about either We do things our way mr. Dollar in spite of your insurance company There is no case against and why did he have me followed? Did in some pug who was waiting for a chance at me I shook him down two hours ago and found out Meadow hired him Doesn't seem reasonable dollar in light of what you said previously if Meadow assumed you were the one shot behind the screen in your Hotel room instead of the girl. No, it doesn't except he found out the wrong person was killed Doesn't any of this mean anything to you people? Well, we'd have to interview the man. You were shook down Where is it in an alley on sing-wong for all I know I left him cold Dollar make your play What we'll back you up go ahead all of us seem to be flying blind this might flush out some truth I don't understand. I checked on you as investigator quite thoroughly You'll have a reputation in your United States and enviable one. I can't disregard that Very well, we wait here and do what you can You put up a lot of fights you've intended so do you good luck, who is it? It's dollar Dollar You know, I'm still alive You know that girl was shot instead of me at the hotel room. I don't know anything Meadow I Want you to go back to town with me and make a statement to the police. Are you crazy? Oh, no, I'm not crazy I'm here to clear up two things her murder and that fire and you know, I'm gonna do it Do I I stopped that man you had following me His statement will put you in plenty of hot water go away. I said I wanted you to come with me I heard you would you come down or shall I come in? Come on in We'll talk about it. It'll be a pleasure. You'd have known You wouldn't take me down. He did you When you what? Hey, I hit you didn't I oh just in the arm. It'll be all right Should have been your stomach. You're cashing in meadow. How about it a statement? No, tell it meadow how you fired the warehouse and about the girl it can't hurt you now You all right. Yeah Meadow Meadow better have that arm taken care of expensive car item 15 $43 even medical fees and hospital charges. I don't suppose it could be called Hueing to the niceties of jurisprudence Since Meadow was dead and he refused before dying to speak or write his confession But there were two police carloads of expert witnesses who took the fact that he had opened fire as an acceptable admission of guilt for the crimes accused The same thing cleared me legally on the grounds of self-defense I'd hoped it would clear my mind But it hasn't Louisa Vedras is still there.
