“Necking?”
“Yes.”
“Then what?”
“At that time they were having quite a bit of trouble with a love bandit, a chap who lay in wait in the places where the necking parties went on. I suppose you know the procedure.”
“Holdup?”
“He’d take money from the men, and then — well, then he’d borrow the woman for a while.”
“Go on.”
“We were held up.”
“What happened?”
“This man made a pass at me and my escort wouldn’t stand for it. The bandit shot him — and got away.”
