Johnny Dollar. From special investigator Johnny Dollar at the Cronin Estate Wells Falls, New York to the home office, Shorty Mutual and Trust Company Hartford, Connecticut.
Assignment the Cronin Matter. Protection of a half million dollar necklace. Expense account continue. Item 10, $135. One tweet, sport jacket to be purchased on my return. Both lapels and one shoulder ripped by a bullet.
Also one pair of slacks to match. Destroyed a few minutes later in the mud slush and underbrush in the grounds of the Cronin place while pursuing a suspect who'd already tried twice to kill me and who made a third go at it when I stepped out of the side door of the house.
I'll wait in the door quick. Boy, that was close. Yeah, you can see the door opening but he can't see us not in this mess. He's desperate. He's shooting blind. Look, Shorty, why don't you go on back in the house?
