Safe, whew!
Hall
Major Chutney, hmmm, spicey!
a tab, not the pop though! As you open the door to the parlor you interrupt an elderly man in a brown military uniform. He is speaking to an elderly woman who is sitting on a red divan. After an appraising glance he walks over and extands his hand to your, which he gives a hearty shake .
a tab, not the pop though!"Well, you must be the detective chap, friend of John's?"
a tab, not the pop though! After pausing for you to nod he continues.
a tab, not the pop though! "Dreadful business. I always knew that girl was bad news. Raised with no morals mind you. Simply dreadful. Not to throw bad light on the Redly's mind you."
a tab, not the pop though! "Who -" you begin, but the Major is already speaking again.
a tab, not the pop though! Mrs. Chutney, his wife. "Mrs. Mars family, the Redly's, you know her maiden name. That cousin of hers, Jessica, always has been one to "associate" with many men, simply disgraceful. In a way I am not the least surprised."
a tab, not the pop though! "But why would Mrs. Redly murder the cook?" You ask. You know that there is always a motive for murder.
a tab, not the pop though! Major Chutney and his wife both turn a shade of pink. The Major coughs and seems quiet uncomfortable. You decide that it is time to hunt for clues elsewhere and depart.
