It took a lot of piec_ \ mg to put it together, but it's as when all the cut-outs fit, In the get the jewels a long time ago- a couple of years, I fancy. He` didn t content himself with mere, planning. He did a -lot_ of work while he yv_as waiting for his op- portunity. He knew the value of. the Missioner necklace, of course` xespec-ially `the value of the big Maharauee diamond that was its central stone. As nearly as I can make out his scheme, he hoped to_ steal the-collarette and dispose oflit months`; before it ohnnlrl ha miszgnd hv Mrs. Mis- should be missed by Mrs. l sioner. The only way to do that, I of course, was to substitute an 5 imitation for the genuine article. t Na1.urally,- _too, the imitation had t to be made without Mrs, Mis- esioner s knowledge, and the man he meant to have make it had to 1 have either the original as a ` copy or a very accurate drawing". 1` it was beyond all possibility, 't11-aty Griswold could get -the necklace into his possession long enough to have a bogus collarette made. Mrs. Missioner, in spite of _her inaiiy niillions, and like all wo- men of wealth, guarded her jew- els closely. She may intrust her Governnient T bonds and other` negotiable securities to attorn- eys or hanks, but s_he keeps her -jewels under her owneyes. None `of us know just how much she Vlthought oi` Griswold; but the l `cliances are that, even if she had heen engag`ed"to him, she would , not have let him have posses- lsion oi the Maharanee necklace for any length of time. .My ex- pcrience is that these rich New Yorkers don L helieve inAthrow- ing temptation in one anol.her s way--anyhow, not at any risk to , then'1selves." i .u\rA..-. ...\.....\-so nf dnzuliu-,fir\n` :H"{-E \d1spose 01 IL l1lU11bub_ umuiu 0F HEAD :QUAR`TERS HIUVV , l'(_ .UU11UUl., auu 1 uuuu .....u.. i-as if d` parcel `out when I m talking The1'e was least, 1iLt,lcTli1'L of the eiye1)1'0ws as he` utteredthe last word.
