     His double life

By day he is Mr. Lee Randall -

    respected citizen.

By night he is Jimmy Valentine -

    enemy to society.

7 Midnight.

8 "It's fixed. Cotton got in

   through the cellar."

9

  -- Next day. --

Detective Doyle is put

   on the case.

10 Doyle remembers having seen this particular cuff-button

    somewhere. -- ?

11 Jimmy and Cotton, his accomplice, make their

   "get-a-way".

12 Rose relates to her father her startling adventure with

a gentleman and a "cad".

13 Cotton "squeals".

14 ... and the iron door of Sing Sing closed slowly upon him

   for ten long years.

15

"As a beginning, I'll show

you Blinky Davis, the cleverest

pen and ink artist I have 
      ever seen."

16 "Perhaps, you would like to see a more romantic type."

17 "Here is a man who is doing ten years for opening a safe without tools or combination, simply by the sense of touch."

18 "Oh! Jimmy; Something's gone wrong with my safe. Open it for me; will you?"

19 "What's the combination?"

20

 Governor Fay, believing

Cotton's story was false and

 only told for revenge,

determines to assist Jimmy

 in securing a pardon.

21

  "... and when Valentine

secures his pardon, - and I hope that will be soon, - I am going to ask him how he was treated

         and if..."

22 "... he tells me you ill-treated

  him in any way, I promise
  you a little polite hell."

23 Pardoned.

24 "I'll get you! It may take a little time, a year, perhaps ten, but as long as we're both alive,

      I'm after you."

25

 On his way to thank Lieut.
Governor Fay for his liberty,

Jimmy eagerly listens to Red's

 plan for a new robbery.

26

"Drop in to see me some
afternoon next week Mr.

Valentine. I'll be glad to

      see you."

27 "That "dame" ... Eh?"

28 "Just one of the clerks I had

     to discharge."

29 "Red, I've got my chance. We go straight from now on."

30

 "I'm going to make you

watchman in a National Bank."

31 Two happy years have elapsed Jimmy Valentine has buried his past life and "alias".

He is now Lee Randall,
   trusted cashier.

32 The old offender is "sprung".

33 "No, Avery, I've opened

    my last safe."

34 "I'm not crazy. It's only the

 man who thinks he can beat 
   the law who's crazy."

35 "Remember, Jimmy, the old

thrills of the past..."

36 "I swore to go straight and

   I'll keep my word."

37 "...but a man can't live on

   two fifty a day..."

38 "It costs thirty cents a day to keep a man in Sing Sing."

39 "I tell you, Red, there isn't a crook who wouldn't go straight

      if he could."

40 Detective Doyle gets a chance.

41 Before leaving town, Governor Fay inspects

  the new vault.

42 "You'd better get me out of here, or I'll have lock-jaw

     in both hands."

43

 "I'm going to prove to Avery

that he is better than he thinks.

  He is going to watch that
  money until we come back."

44 "Rose, if ever anything happens, I want you to remember, from my soul,

    I love you."

45 "Red, you haven't forgotten

the greatest refuge of the 
crook, our old friend, the 
 Alibi - something which 
proves you were not where 
 you were when something 
        happened."

46

   "I was never Jimmy Valentine, Red.
 I never did that job in Massachusetts.
I was never in Sing Sing and I can prove

it. If I've got to use crook's tools to beat

Doyle, I'm justified. I'm living straight 
     and all the gods are with me."

47

"I am not Jimmy Valentine,
 and I don't know what you 
 mean. Furthermore, if you

don't desist from insinuating that I'm a criminal, I'll have

  the watchman eject you
     from the bank ...."

48

 "I think I'll call up 

headquarters, Mr. Doyle and find out if you really are a

       detective."

49 "... but you will have to prove

      that you are not
      Jimmy Valentine."

50 "Pardon me, you will have

  to prove that I am
   Jimmy Valentine."

51 "You can alibi yourself into Hell!, Valentine; but in 1902

  you were in Sing Sing."

52 "-- they haven't set the combination yet; nobody

     knows it --"

53 "My hands are like leather. Where is that man with the

     sand paper?"

54 "...but just to retain your respect; don't think I fell for

    that fake picture."
