know that she had the goods on it. As nearly as I can find out, a
stranger came to the place well introduced, a man, accompanied by
a woman. They got into some of the games. The man seems to have
excused himself. Apparently he found Rena Taylor alone in a room
in some part of the house. No one heard a pistol shot, but then I

Dillon paused. "The strange thing is, however," he resumed, "that
we haven't been able to find in the house a particle of evidence
that a murder or violence of any kind has been done. One fact is
established, though, incontrovertibly. Rena Taylor disappeared
from that gambling house the same night and about the same time
that Warrington's car disappeared. Then we find her dead over in
New Jersey."
"And I find reports and traces that the car has been in the
vicinity," added Garrick.
