Worlds of Tomorrow April 1963 Extensive research did not uncover any evidence that He was as ancient as time—and as strange as his own frightful battle against incredible odds! I In his room at the Elsby Commercial Hotel, Tremaine opened his luggage "Fred, Tremaine here. Put the buzzer on." A thin hum sounded on the wire as the scrambler went into operation. "Okay, can you read me all right? I'm set up in Elsby. Grammond's boys are supposed to keep me informed. Meantime, I'm not sitting in this damned room crouched over a dial. I'll be out and around for the rest of the afternoon." wait another. I don't mind telling you certain quarters are pressing me."

I was happy in the lab. Headaches, nightmares and all. Hyperwave is my baby, remember? You elected me to be a leg-man: now let me do it my way." "I felt a technical man might succeed where a trained investigator area—" brings you back to the boondocks?" "Let's go somewhere and sit down, Jess." In a back room Tremaine said, "To everybody but you this is just a visit to the old home town. Between us, there's more." pattern—" something ..." groceries and hikes back out to his place by the river." "Well, what about him?" I've forgotten. Wanted me to come out to his place and he'd teach me. I never did go. We kids used to play in the caves near his place, and sometimes he gave us apples." ordinary American. But up close, you feel it. He's foreign, all right. But we never did know where he came from." "How long's he lived here in Elsby?" "Beats me, Jimmy. You remember old Aunt Tress, used to know all about ancestors and such as that? She couldn't remember about Mr. Bram. She over again." "I remember Soup," Tremaine said. "He and his bunch used to come in the drug store where I worked and perch on the stools and kid around with me, and Mr. Hempleman would watch them from over back of the prescription counter and look nervous. They used to raise cain in the other drug store...." on fire." "What was the idea of that?" frowning. "This would ha' been about nineteen-oh-one. I was no more'n foot, of course, broad backed, curly yellow hair—and a stranger to there and Miss Linda made her play, right there in front of the town, practically. Just before sundown they went off together in that fancy and eyes open for anything that might build into a lead on this, Jess. Meantime, I'm just a tourist, seeing the sights." "What about that gear of yours? Didn't you say you had some kind of detector you were going to set up?" "I've got an oversized suitcase," Tremaine said. "I'll be setting it up in my room over at the hotel." "When's this bootleg station supposed to broadcast again?" Back in the street, Tremaine headed south toward the Elsby Town Hall, a squat structure of brownish-red brick, crouched under yellow A thin man with garters above the elbow looked over his shoulder at Tremaine. "We're closed," he said. "I won't be a minute," Tremaine said. "Just want to check on when the The man came over to the counter, eyeing Tremaine. "He ain't going to sell, mister, if that's what you want to know." "I want to know when he bought." The man hesitated, closed his jaw hard. "Come back tomorrow," he said. to save a trip." He lifted his hand and scratched the side of his jaw. A folded bill opened on the counter. The thin man's eyes darted toward a two-foot-square book lay open. An untrimmed fingernail indicated a line written in faded ink: "May 19. Acreage sold, One Dollar and other G&amp V consid. NW Quarter Section 24, Township Elsby. Bram. (see Vol. 9 &amp cet.)" "Translated, what does that mean?" said Tremaine. "That's the ledger for 1901 means Bram bought a quarter section on the nineteenth of May. You want me to look up the deed?" The man was looking at the book with pursed lips. "Nineteen-oh-one," "I guess you're right." The clerk looked sideways at Tremaine. "Lots of funny stories about lights. And they used to say there was money buried out at his place." "I've heard those stories. Just superstition, wouldn't you say?" "There's one story that's not superstition...." Tremaine waited. "You—uh—paying anything for information?" "I want nineteen-oh-one, if they go back that far." "What date was it you wanted?" "Nineteen-oh-one the week of May nineteenth." dark. But they're still flimsy, mind you." "I'll remember." The woman stood by as Tremaine looked over the front page. The lead article concerned the opening of the Pan-American Exposition at Buffalo. Vice-President Roosevelt had made a speech. Tremaine leafed over, reading slowly. On page four, under a column headed heads, skimmed an article here and there. The librarian went back to her desk. An hour later, in the issue for July 7, 1900, an item caught his eye: A Severe Thunderstorm. Citizens of Elsby and the country were much alarmed by a violent cloudburst, accompanied by lightning and thunder, during the night of the fifth. A fire set in the pine woods north of Spivey's farm destroyed a considerable amount of timber and threatened the house before burning itself out along You'll have to come back tomorrow." Outside, the sky was sallow in the west: lights were coming on in "What's the matter? Run out of signal?" "What's it to you, mister?" "We could be." "Mind if I have a word with him? My name's Tremaine." "Oh," said the cop, "you're the big shot from Washington." He shifted chewing tobacco to the other side of his jaw. "Sure, you can talk to Tremaine?" "I thought you were going to keep your men away from Elsby until I gave the word, Grammond." "That was before I knew your Washington stuffed shirts were holding out on me." "The smallest hyperwave transmitter Uncle Sam knows how to build weighs three tons," said Tremaine. "Bicycles are out." "Why did you come today, James?" asked Miss Carroll. "Of course." "How long has Mr. Bram lived in Elsby?" Miss Carroll looked at him for a long moment. "Will what I tell you be to be in the national interest." "I'm not at all sure I know what the term 'national interest' means, year." "This locket," said Tremaine, "do you still have it?" "There is one other thing," she said, "perhaps quite meaningless...." and neither does anybody else. Maybe it's a ring of Bolsheviks ... gun?" "In the car." "Better get it."
