For Them That Trespass Page #7

Come on

That's not the way to the depot is it?

We go by the tunnel,saves time

I know the road

Road is not here,this is our bit

Here,hold this while I light my pipe

So you killed Frankie

Frankie is dead,I won't wake her up again

Now I just make certain she doesn't

Wake

There is someone I got to do right by

Get the police quick,quick

And he confessed?

Yeah, he confessed but even that it is not good enough

Detective Inspector Benstead said

lots of people,when they are dying, confess of murders they never did

I've got to get corroborative proof he says

How would you get it?

From Mr Drew,I'm seeing him tonight

I phoned him at the theatre,he's rehearsing a new play

I said I got to see him,something new,you see, that concerned him

Get a taxi,says he,and wait for me outside the theatre

We'll go somewhere quiet

Somewhere quiet?

I'll take him somewhere quiet

Aren't you going home,Sir, it's getting very late

Don't worry Sir,people are saying it's the best thing you've done

-Good Night Sir -Good night

Is this where you live?

Yeah

This way Mr Drew

Why not sit down? The seats are free

It was Jim Heal then?

Yes it was,he confessed in the presence of witnesses

Will that clear you?

No.Not yet it doesn't.I need proof

In a word,just one word from someone else

-Who? -You,Mr Drew

Jim Heal said he killed her because she was with another man

All you got to do is to say it was you

It was you,was it not?

Logan,you accuse me of murder

now you are accusing being with an unknown woman in a room I've never seen

Haven't you Mr Drew?

Look.Look around

Can't you hear her?

Can't you hear laughing the way she did?

Sorry for nothing,Frankie, didn't she say that?

Didn't she?

If you are not going to talk I'll bet there's something here that will

Frankie had a hideaway somewhere

somewhere where she kept her valuables, like under the boards maybe

Didn't you never give her something,Mr Drew?

I'll bet I could find something if I look

Have you read Heal's confession?

Indeed I have.I've got a copy

May I see it?

Sure,I'll get it

"You are writing old funny things,

I'll put it somewhere safe read it when I'm old,and you're famous"

Is this what you are looking for?

This poem you wrote

What's it got to do with it?

Proof you've been in this room before

We are quite alone

And that's how it's always going to be until

Just you and me until you want to tell the truth

I was here that night

But I could never make you understand why I let you suffer like this

I was young ambitious,my life then was so sheltered,narrow minded

I had not only myself to think of

Then once I started it became more difficult

Worse,worse

I know I can't make it up to you but you can have all the money you need

Money.I don't want your money

Logan,it's my wife and children against yours

I gone so far I can't go back

I'm not going to speak

You are not going to?

I'll do anything else you ask me but

not that

Ah,Mr Drew maybe now you'll feel some of the things I felt for 16 years

In the end justice has caught up with you

I wonder how many of us would have the courage

Hello,brother.Is everything ookiedookie?

What?

Yes it is

-I must.. -I say

When the first leaves fall

Sure,sure,thanks a lot

Rosie

Rosie

I'm cleared Rosie

Herb,wonderful

I think I got to cry

You are terrible feeble Rosie, crying is not going to top me

Crying,when I got a proof I'm innocent

I bet you have hysterics when I get my pardon,love
