The sheriff and all them what was trying to figure out what begun the fire what caused Mary Lou to get burnt up, looked through the smoldering leftovers all night. They had put out what they called an all-point-bulletin looking for Graham. They did not know nothing about his fooling around with Marlyss at the time, but a lot of folks knowed how Mary Lou treated him and knowed he had a lot of good reasons to bump her off. But ever thing come to a head early the next morning when they heard this coughing coming from the gazebo what Graham had built on the lake. When they looked inside there sits Mary Lou and beside her there were her mynah bird. It were coughing up a storm, something what it learnt from Mary Lou. "Cigarette cough," she said. And both the bird and Mary Lou went in to a coughing spasm what lasted for five minutes.
