RAGE IN HEAVEN

FOR THE

FOLLOWING

WEEKS the house was ns silent as the grave. Philip stayed In his room and ate his meals as If he were a man in solitary con- finement. And until the late hours: of the morning, he would write in his diary, his pen flying, his lips twisted into a pecullár smile.

One night Stellu could bear it no longer. She knocked door and when she stepped in, Philip was sitting before the fire- place scanning-some letters.

By James Hilton

author of "Goodbye, Mr· Chips”-·· and

"Lost Horizon".

The Story So Far:

Seemingly normal, intelligent and attractive Philip Monrell has married Stella Bergen, a beautiful refugee who has been a companion to his mother. They are happy but the erretic, morbid side of Philip's nature develops more and more. on his

He secretly killa Stella's pet kitten because his friend, Ward Andrews, has given it to her. He becomes obsessed by the notion that she and Ward are in love..As head of a steel works he antagonizes the men and almost causes a riot. Then, one day, nearly crazed, he tries to push Ward into a steel furnace. That night, Word confronts him with it. They quarrel and Ward leaves to go to London. Philip has won but at the same time he feels that he has really lost Stella.

"Stella. This is an unexpected pleasure. Please alt down. I'm just reading your last letter to Mother."

She drew in her breath sharply. He had taken them from the post before they were sent. "YOU... you opened them?"

"Of course. All. And never onc word of complaint. Nobody can say you're not a loyal wife,"

All at once, he rose and come toward her. "We're so unhappy, aren't we darling?" he asked gent- ly. "All three of us. You, be cause you love Word and have to stay with me. Ward, because he loves you and can't have you." And I, because nobody loves me.".

Now his voice softened even more. "We must put an end to it, Stella. We two together." His eyes were glittering madly. "Then I'll have you all to myself at last." Slowly, his hands weni toward her throat. "Don't be frightened dar- lag. It's so easy and you know I wouldn't hurt you-"

Her terrified scream cut through his words. "Nol Not Don't!"

Sobbing hysterically, she ran from the room.

THAT NIGHT When the high, Philip watched her as she crept out of the house, wearing a coat and carry- ing a suitcase. So she was gone. He felt all twisted Inside. She was running to Ward. What he had always feared, had happened.

The next day he telephoned Ward in London. and, just as he had expected, Stella was there. with him. No, Ward

Then he replaced it in the door crack and tied it to the bell rope in such a way that it seemed as if the knife handle were the bell handle..

His next step was to spray the grass between the French win- dows of the drawing room and the garage. The earth was soon soak- Ing wet.

But Philip was, his most persu- asive self. "Oh, I know, she was perfectly right. I deserved it. She can have the divorce whenever she. wants. I'd like to talk to you about that as soon as possible. No, Plense, not in London. I'd be too neur Stella. You know how feel,"

And so it was arranged against Steila's better judgment, Ward was to come out to Chassingford late the next day.

Now Philip began to talk gally, feverishly, about everything under the sun. His eye was on the clock however.

But finally Ward eút in.brusque- ly. "I haven't much time; Philip. Hadn't we better get down to bus- nesa? You said that you'd like to tolk over arrangements for tho divorce

There was a sound from outside. Philip had been waiting for it. That was Clark returnnig. Now, all at once, he raised his voice angrily. "Ward, I should have thrown you put of the house long go when you were cheating mo and lying behind my back. Yes, let's drop the pretence. I thought you were my friend and you stole my wife.

"If you don't stop," Ward · shouted back, I'll break your neck. - Leave Stella out of this. She's left you and that's that."

But, all at once, Philip was calm. Ward, I'm sorry," he said with the deepest sincerity, He was satisfied now. Clark must have heard the noise of the quarrel.- "When I'm upset.. I say horrible things, - Yes, I'll give her the di- vorce. Please go now.

was blowing when Clark walked into the library. The French windows were open. A dim light was burning: Then sud- denly the old man uttered a cry and started back in horror.

Philip Monrell was lying on the floor dead, a hunting knife cm- bedded in his heart!

The arrest and trial of Philip Monrell's suspected murderer was swift and dramatic. There seemed to be no question of it. Ward Andrews had killed his best friend.

Standing there in the courtroom Stella watched Ward, erect and pale in the prisoner's dock, listen- ing to the evidence against him. His footprints had been found in the

garden. His fingerprints were on the knife. Clark, the butler, had heard his master voice his fear against "enemies." And later, there had been the violent quarrel between the two men.

The Solicitor General faced the Jury. "Gentlemen, you have only to unk yourselves one question.. Did Ward Andrews kill Philip Monrell? If the answer to that question is 'Yes' then you are bound to return against the pri soner the verdict of GUILTY OF WILFUL MURDER."
