That night Perry Mason spent the evening with his family. The time had passed so quickly. Sally had now finished the third grade and was now an official fourth grader. As she showed her mother and father her report card she beamed with pride. She got all A's and S 's for behavior once more. She not only was kind but smart also.

The family went out to their favorite pizza house for a big celebration . Perry Jr. could now sit in a high chair with a belt to hold him in. He was very fidgety and might try to crawl out now. He sat there with his baby fruit while the rest of the family ate pizza. Soon he would be joining in with the rest of the family.

When everyone got home Sally went to her room to get dressed for bed and daddy got to spend some time with his son. Perry was sad that he had so few daddy and baby moments. As he was changing his name sake for bed Perry Jr. giggled when he rubbed his belly with lotion. It was the first time that he had heard him giggle and it was so exciting.

But changing the baby was becoming a chore. He was grabbing everything in sight and rolling back and forth every time his father tried to put his diaper and clothes on. It was the beginning of the fun months. Soon he would be crawling and then walking.

After the children were in bed Perry went to his study with Della to go over the briefs. He called Larry Davis and put him on speaker phone so that Della could hear what was being said. "I have something to discuss with you tonight. It seems that Brian Capron and his girl friend Carrie own a white Impala Chevrolet . When Paul Drake went to Carrie to serve a subpoena she acted very strangely." he told him. "In the morning both Brian and Carrie will be in court."

Larry had a feeling that something was going on that was like that. "I will be looking forward to cross examining the both of them. Perhaps we can wind this case down tomorrow." Larry told Perry and Della with hope in his voice.

"Yes. I think we can." Perry told him.

In the meantime Carrie was at home worried to death about court in the morning. She now knew that Perry Mason and Larry Davis both knew about her car and how it had been seen going up to the cabin that day. But, she had done nothing. She didn't know what to do. She called Brian, but he didn't return her call. She paced back and forth in her bedroom worried sick.

Brian was now sure that Mr. Mason had figured out who the person was in the Chevrolet. He had been a fool thinking that no one would find out about him and the cabin. But, he had gone up there and the cabin had been empty. He saw some things in the cabin, including the sweater but he did not look at the name on the sweater that day at all. He had left .

The next morning court came early once more. As Perry looked around the courtroom he saw both Brian and Carrie. He was sure that these two people at least held the key as to who the murderer was and could not wait for the testimony that they were going to be giving.

The courtroom was crowded that morning again. There were many witnesses who had been subpoenaed by both the prosecution and defense. But because Mason was assisting the new lawyer there were students and just curiosity seekers attending the trial as well.

The first person to be called to the witness stand was Barry Martin. Barry was very nervous when he took the stand and Larry Davis took advantage of this "Mr. Martin is it true that you and Larry Barber wife were having an affair?"

Barry cleared his throat and said "Yes, But I didn't"

"Just answer the question." Larry intervened. "Did you go to the cabin on the day of the murder?" Larry Davis demanded.

"No. I was at home most of the day. Then I went to town and met with Gina. We spent the day together."

"Were you at the bar the entire day?" he asked.

"Most of the day. Yes." Barry admitted.

"What time did you see a white Chevy Impala on your street?" Davis asked him.

"It was about ten in the morning." Barry answered.

"Did you see any other strange cars that day?" Larry Davis asked.

"No sir. I did not." Barry answered and then he was allowed to stand down.

"I reserve the right to recall the witness." Larry put in.

The next person to take the witness stand was Gina Parker. Attorney Davis knew that he would have to question her carefully. She was the widow of one of the victims and the court would frown upon anything that he said without delicacy. "Mrs. Parker, can you please tell me if you saw anything that day?" he asked her.

"No I did not see anyone. As a matter of fact I didn't know that he was at the cabin. I didn't see him at all." Gina told the court.

"Do you know anyone who drives a white Chevrolet Impala?" Larry Davis asked her.

"No. I don't think so." she told him.

"Thank you. You can stand down. But I ask for the right to recall the witness." Larry Davis told the court once again.

The judge looked at the time and announced that court would be taking a break for lunch and would reconvene at two. As they all headed out of the courtroom to get some lunch, Perry sent Paul out to check the parking lot for any chevy Impalas, perhaps once that had been newly painted. Perry knew that they were close to finding out who the murderer was and now he had to make sure that he and Davis checked each and every possibility. He had high hopes that the murder would be solved that day.
