Boyd picked up the receiver and heard the following: "Boyd, come quick, help, they'll kill me." Then came the sound of a falling body and all was still. After considerable difficulty Boyd and Coleman finally located the place where the message came from, and there they found Smith, the head bookkeeper for Hersey and Company, lying on the floor in a pool of blood. However, the man was not dead, so upon his recovery, he told of a man that looked like Mr. Hersey, the banker, who had ordered him to hand over certain bonds and cash, but, upon Smith's discovering his mistake, this crook had beaten him into unconsciousness. Everybody believed Smith's story, with one exception, Boyd. He had noticed that the man's pulse was regular, and that fact made him suspicious. However, he had Smith taken to his home, outside of which he kept watch. That night, Smith came out, and. followed by Boyd, made a trip to a house in the suburbs. Boyd, looking through a convenient window, discovered Wykoff, the master criminal, and his band, dividing the loot with Smith. Entering by another window, he held them up, but was frustrated by another crook, who came late to the rendezvous. At that minute, Coleman, for whom Boyd had sent before, entered. However, in the interval, Wyckoff managed to get away, but his band, including Smith, were grabbed. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
