"Marshall Taylor, Pres. Central Western Trust."
"Maxwell Wickham, District Att'y."
"Riley Drummond, Detective."
"It is even broader than I had hoped," cried Constance in delight. "Does that satisfy you, Graeme?"
"Y-yes," he murmured, not through hesitation, but from the suddenness and surprise of the thing.
"Then sign this."
She wrote quickly: "In consideration of the dropping of all charges against me, I agree to tell the number and location of the safe deposit box in New York where the stocks and bonds I possess are located and to hand over a key and written order to the same. I now agree immediately to pay by check the balance of the half million, including interest."
She stepped aside from the machine. With a tremor of eagerness he seized the stylus and underneath what she had written wrote boldly the name, "Graeme Mackenzie."
Next Constance herself took the stylus. "Place in the telautograph a blank check," she wrote. "He will write in the name of the bank, the amount, and the signature."
She did the same. "Now, Graeme, sign this cheek on the Universal Bank as Lawrence Macey," she said, writing in the amount.
