| Transcript | I don't remember whether he said he followed his own advice." Mr. Breen broke in. He'd been listening to everything with the same worried, hunting look. "I seem to remember there always used to be a little suitcase at the foot ofhis bed," he said. "And it's not there now." He continued to look worried and puzzled. "After you found his keys," Jack addressed him, "I went up and searched every inch of the roof. I found three items that could have been Mr. Manning's - a backgammon doubling cube, a lens cap that fitted his binoculars, and a matchbook wixhfive matches left in a pattern of two side by side, one alone, and two one space apart." "There's/?^ of us," Breen groped. He touched the side of his head and winced his eyes. "I knew I'd remember," he said guiltily. "When I found the keys they were on a scrap of paper, holding it down. I started to pick the paper up too, though I never thought it might be important then, but it blew off the roof. It was ragged along one side, like it was torn out of a spiral notebook. I think it had writing on it, tiny capitals." They looked around at each other for a while. Then, as though by common consent, they went up to the roof together and watched the rising of the Loners Moon, which is also often the Overlapper linking each year with the next. @ FRITZ LEIBER 1979 IN MEMORIAM Lief Andersson Dennis Dobson Ron Graham Brian Lewis Richard C.
