"On April sixth you deposited forty thousand dollars in cash in the Second National Bank."
He paled. "Anything more?"
"Do you care to explain where you got it?" I asked.
"Not to you," he said proudly. "Go on with your story."
"My first clue was in the cryptic letter found on the stage."
"I remember. You couldn't translate it."
"But I did."
"What's it got to do with me?"
"Nothing. But I found a second letter written in the same cryptogram and about the same matters in your pocket."
