 * Just after midnight Sam Woods, set off on his nightly routine around the city, as he started to drive an idea came to his head that the killer would strike Mantoli’s daughter, so he swung the car around and headed to the Endicott’s home, as he hit the gravel he notived a car coming and pulled it over, inside was Kaufmann, and he said he had just been up at the Endicott’s to discuss the festival. He told Woods to not disturb and to follow him back to town. **


 * Gillespie waited a long-distance call to the motel and asked if a Mr. Kaufmann was staying with them, they replied and gave the information out. Gillespie hung up and at that moment Arnold popped his head through the door and said that Ralph at the drive-in said he saw a possible suspect. Gillespie asked for any car description and then told Arnold to have him hauled in for questioning. **


 * A few hours later a man named Gottschalk came in and told Gillespie his story and that he didn’t see anything and thought the town was dead.
