Harry Rex had pulled out his pocket planner

Harry Rex had pulled out his pocket planner. "What day was this?" Spain removed his, and as all busy lawyers do, they compared their recent movements. "Monday, May the first," Spain decided.
"That was six days before the Judge died," Harry Rex said.
"I'm sure that's the date. It was just a strange scene."
"Well, he's a pretty strange guy."
"He's not running from the law or anything, is he?"
"Not at the present," Harry Rex said, and they both managed a nervous laugh.
Spain suddenly needed to go. "Anyway, when you see him again, tell him I'm still mad about the late hit,Replica Designer Handbags."
"I'll do that," Harry Rex said, then watched him walk away,Discount UGG Boots.
Chapter 38
Mr. and Mrs. Vonner left Clanton on a cloudy June morning in a new sports utility four-wheel drive that promised twelve miles to the gallon and was loaded with enough luggage for a month in Europe. The District of Columbia was the destination, however, since Mrs. Vonner had a sister there whom Harry Rex had never met. They spent the first night in Gatlinburg and the second night at White Sulphur Springs in West Virginia. They arrived in Charlottesville around noon, did the obligatory tour of Jefferson's Monticello, walked the grounds at the university, and had an unusual dinner at a college dive called the White Spot, the house specialty being a fried egg on a hamburger. It was Harry Rex's kind of food.
The next morning, while she slept, he went for a stroll on the downtown mall. He found the address and waited.
A FEW minutes after 8 A.M., Ray double-tied the laces of his rather expensive running shoes, stretched in the den, and walked downstairs for the daily five-miler. Outside, the air was warm. July was not far away and summer had already arrived.
He turned a corner and heard a familiar voice call, "Hey, boy."
Harry Rex was sitting on a bench, a cup of coffee in hand,moncler jackets women, an unread newspaper next to him. Ray froze and took a few seconds to collect himself. Things were out of place here.
When he could move, he walked over and said, "What, exactly, are you doing here?"
"Cute outfit," Harry Rex said, taking in the shorts, old tee shirt, red runner's cap, the latest in athletic eye glasses. "Me and the wife are passing through, headed for D.C. She has a sister up there she thinks I want to meet. Sit down."
"Why didn't you call?"
"Didn't want to bother you."
"But you should've called, Harry Rex. We could do dinner, I'll show you around."
"It's not that kind of trip. Sit down."
Smelling trouble, Ray sat next to Harry Rex. "I can't believe this," he mumbled.
"Shut up and listen."
Ray removed his running glasses and looked at Harry Rex. "Is it bad?"
"Let's say it's curious." He told Jacob Spain's story about For-rest hiding in the trees at the oncology clinic, six days before the Judge passed away. Ray listened in disbelief and slid lower on the bench. He finally leaned forward with his elbows on his knees, his head hung low.
"According to the medical records," Harry Rex was saying, "he got a morphine pack that day, May the first,fake uggs online store. Don't know if it was the first pack or a refill, the records are not that clear. Looks like Forrest took him to get the good stuff."
