“Did you hear the shots?”
“I thought it was a truck back-firing. I had no idea…”
“Three of them?”
“Three.”
“After these people had rented the cabin?”
“Yes.”
“How long after?”
“I don’t know — perhaps fifteen minutes — perhaps not that long. Perhaps only ten.”
“Longer than fifteen minutes?”
“I tell you it could have been. I don’t keep the time on those things. If I’d known they were shots I certainly would have noticed the time. And if I’d known this man was going to make me all this trouble, I never would have rented him anything in the first place. I’m not a fortune-teller.”
