"Hey!" exclaimed the druggist. "Who would you accuse?"
"Not Haley, that's sure."
"Nobody but the committee, the janitor, and Haley knew anything about the coins," the druggist said earnestly. "They were delivered to me last night right here in the store by Mr. Hobart, the lecturer. He came through from Middletown a-purpose. He took the boat this morning for the Landing. Now, nobody else knew about the coins being in town——"
"Who was here with you, Mr. Massey, when the coins were delivered to your keeping?" Janice Day interposed, for she had been listening.
"Warn't nobody here," said Mr. Massey promptly.
"You were alone in the store?"
"Yes, I was," quite as positively.
"What did you do with the trays?"
"Locked 'em in my safe."
"At once?" again asked Janice.
