 Jerry at feral. It's pretty tough on mr. Linwell. Maybe this will keep him from getting better as soon as he might I don't know about that Lee. I think mr. Linwell is made of pretty tough stuff. He'll be able to take it. Yes Oh, come in Captain Gardner. Thank you, mr. Wallace How is mr. Linwell? He's pretty distracted, but he's giving us all the cooperation he can. Is there any news at all? No, none at all. Oh, hello, mr. Linwell. Gee we we're sorry. Hello Jerry Lee captain Gardner I know it's rather futile to say this mr. Linwell But if there's anything we can do I assure you that the entire facilities of Fair Oaks military Academy are at your disposal I appreciate that captain, but mr. Wallace here and his men are doing everything they can Jerry Yes, sir Do you think you could recall what that man looked like the one who ran into you when you were carrying mr. Linwell's letter to captain Gardner Well, I gee it all happened so quick that I didn't get a very good look at his face All I know is that he spoke with a funny accent like Yorga Well, if you should see him again, do you think that you'd be able to recognize him and point him out? I think I could do that sir I'm sure we could because when he spoke to us he well he acted sore about being bumped into I think I got a better look at him than Jerry did because well, Jerry was too busy trying to get his balance What did he look like? Well, he was dark. I'm sure of that gray hat Dark eyes little eyes like he was always squinting. I'm afraid that description could fit a hundred different men Yeah, but they wouldn't all talk with an accent Well, that's true son, but it's little enough to go on isn't it about time that you men called here mr. Wallace Yes, but we've got to give them time Linwell. I know exactly how you feel Oh, maybe I should have kept quiet about the whole thing and Harold wouldn't I think you did a pretty brave thing Well, yes and believe me we appreciate it Oh, I know that's a pretty weak thing to say and whatever credit you may get for trying to expose those men who tried to bribe you It's small pay for what's happened now. How did it happen mr. Linwell? Harold and I were having a bite to eat in the kitchen and you know, we had a phone put in and well, it rang while we were eating a I didn't suspect that anything had happened So I went into the other room and answered it and I think it was your guy on the line Oh, he's got a lot of nerve. I'm afraid he is Jerry. Then what happened mr. Linwell Well, there isn't much more to tell he talked to me for at least five minutes and When I hung up and went back to the kitchen Herald Herald was gone The back door was open your to held you on the line long enough to see to it That is confederates had plenty of time to get in the back door and take Harold with them. That's right, mr. Wallace pretty clever Yes, and fairly sure of themselves Well, we're doing everything we can but the phone sir. Shall I answer it mr. Wallace or for you? I'll take it It's probably the report we've been waiting for Hello He has Wallace speaking. Oh Taylor Yes I see no trace, sir All right, take plaster impressions of the tire tracks trace them down find out who bought the car and where the license is registered And put out a net and tell Bradley to keep in touch with me at all times Yes, that's right. I'll see you later Well, it seems to be that what's the news? Yoga has flown the coop down as clean as a whistle tire tracks lead from his boarding house. I When do you think you'll hear again? That's hard to say mr. Manuel of course. I I hate to be pessimistic about this But it appears we're up against a very clever bunch They seem to have had all their lines out well ahead of their actual time of doing the job Everything was planned to the smallest detail. Well, aren't you? I mean haven't you got men out after them? Of course we were doing everything we can Of course, we're up against something more than just a clever gang here Therefore we worked against them and them alone, but now Well, you mean Harold don't you? Yes, Lin. Well, that's what I mean. We've got to think of him They're holding him as a threat against us. Gee poor Harold. However, there's The phone again. Never mind then. Well, I'll answer it. It's probably one of your men again. Yes, you're probably right Hello What? Oh, all right. Taylor read it to me. Taylor's found a note probably from yoga Yes, Taylor. I'm ready. Go ahead Mm-hmm Very well, did you check the note for fingerprints? No, no, no, no, how about the handwriting? Oh I see All right, Taylor. Keep on it. I'll see you later Well, you're gonna left a note printed it demands that we give them 24 hours before we send it a tail out after them Oh Well, you know they've certainly taken steps to cover all their tracks. Well, what are you going to do Wallace? Mr. Lin? Well We'll have to go after them. I see you're not gonna get them 24 hours. I'm afraid we can't but Harold We'll do everything we can Now there are a few things I'd like to talk about. We'll be running along now If there's anything we can do to help Mr. Wallace, there may be later on captain. Thank you. Thank you captain Gardner And thanks Jerry and Lee. Oh, that's all right. Mr. Lin. Well, we Well, we're sorry about everything. I Maybe it's partly our fault for for finding out about the man on Woodman's Island I mean, well, maybe we scared him. Oh, I don't think you need to worry about that Jerry. They They had their plans and just went through with them Well, we'll see you later, Mr. Lin. Well, and we'll keep in touch with you. Thanks Lee. Well, come on boys We're better out of the way. Now, Mr. Lin. Well, can you remember the exact date? Yeah, I feel sorry for Mr. Lin. Well, isn't there something we can do captain Gardner Jerry I'm afraid the whole thing is well out of our hands and into very good ones Mr. Wallace seemed to know what he's doing. Yeah, I know that sir, but Well, Lee and I we feel close to Harold and it's kind of Well getting on our nerves just waiting without being able to do anything at all. It makes me feel helpless Well, I'm afraid we're just going to have to wait regardless of how we feel hop in the wagon boys. Thank you, sir You were going right back to the school. I guess so sir Can we stop in at max place captain Gardner? Well, I I rather think in view of the circumstances and because you're still Uncivilian clothes you might stop in max or a pop or something, but don't stay too long Oh, no, sir. Is it all right to tell Mac what's happened captain Gardner? Well, yeah, I guess it is but I tell him to keep quiet about it. Oh Mac will sir You don't have to worry about him. He can keep a secret. It isn't exactly a secret Jerry It'll be in the newspapers, but until it is there's no use spreading it around We don't want the rest of the cadets along. No, that that wouldn't do any good But we'll tell Mac to keep it under his hat. Well, here you are. I Wouldn't stay more than half an hour boys But may we tell the officer of the day that we've had permission, sir Well, I'll tell him and as soon as you leave max be sure to go directly to your room. Yes, sir There you are. Thank you, sir. We appreciate it, sir. Right. All right. Just remember no more than half an hour Well remember sir. Good night. Good night captain Gardner Gee, he swell isn't he? I'll say yes letting us go into max this way, you know I kind of wish red Morrison was officer of the day. Huh? What are you talking about?
