Todd had escaped notice at the scene of the accident and now he was stumbling through the nearby thicket. He was confused but knew he had a rendezvous to keep with Carolyn. Nothing must interfere with that meeting. "Carolyn!" he cried as he pushed through the woods, a dazed expression on his face. "Carolyn!" Not far away, standing by a window of the Collinwood stable was Carolyn. her pale, phantom face peered out into the night. There was an air of extreme concentration about her. In a thin voice, she chanted, "I am waiting for you, Todd. You will find me. Come to me. Come to me!" |

The sheriff had come out onto the grounds and was now giving staccato instructions via the radio microphone. Professor Stokes, Jeff and the injured driver, Alex, were standing next to him. Julia, Maggie and the others were in the background. Alex, the driver, was saying, "We looked up. She was there. Just standing there." "That's when you left the road?" the sheriff said. "Yes," the driver told him. The sheriff spoke into the microphone again. "Every building on the property must be searched. We know Todd's on his way to her." Roger joined the group and went to Julia. He glanced down and watched her looking after the injured officer. "Is he going to be all right?" Julia said, "I think so. Someone should look in on Elizabeth." "I already did," Roger assured her. "She's still under sedation." "Just as well," Julia said, turning to give her attention to the injured officer. "That ambulance should be here soon now." |
Confusion reigned around the scene of the burning car. Both of the officers in it had been thrown from the vehicle by the force of the impact. Had they landed on hard asphalt this could have been fatal for them, but fortunately they had struck the comparatively soft surface of the lawns. But one of them was unconscious and the other was in shock and seemed to have a broken leg. Dr. Julia Hoffman at once rushed forward to attend to their injuries. Roger, Jeff and Maggie stood a distance away with several other officers. The intense heat from the burning car kept them from getting really close. Roger turned to one of the officers. "Is an ambulance on its way?" The young policeman nodded. "Sheriff has called the Ellsworth Hospital to send one. Good thing there was a doctor here." "I know it," Roger said grimly. "Any idea how badly those two are?" "Mike is still out of it," the policeman said. "And I think Alex is only suffering from shock. They're lucky to be alive." Roger sighed. "No doubt about that." "Any idea what happened to cause the wreck?" Jeff asked. The officer looked odd. "It's a mystery. I've talked to Alex but he's still confused. He raved on about seeing someone in the road. They tried to swing the car and avoid running whoever it was down. At least that's what he says. It could be just raving." Roger gave him a sharp look. "Later on you'll probably get a better account of it." "No question of that," the officer said. "Looks as if you had a good chance of losing that tree." "Unfortunate," Roger said. "But nothing compared to the fact two lives could have been lost. I hope that ambu- lance gets here quickly." "Shouldn't take long," the officer said, his eyes on the fire again. It was now beginning to ease some. Julia Hoffman came back to Roger, her pleasant fea- tures highlighted by the fire's rosy tint. "I've done all I can for them." "Will he live?" Roger asked. "He should," Julia said. "Unless he has injuries I don't know about. Only an X-ray can tell." Jeff turned to Maggie. "This has been some night." "It has," she was quick to agree. As they talked a fugitive Todd was hiding in the shrub- bery near the main building watching them. As soon as their attention was fixed on the accident he made a break for it and sneaked off into the darkness. |
