Synopsis
The Liberty Ship Murder on Hull # 13, it will not be remembered for the murder which was of no importance except to the participants.
What will be remembered are the antics of the shipyard stud by many of the young women on their lonely nights?
My job was as an agent sent to the ship yard to investigate the demise of a woman worker. My interest was soon diverted to this brawny and horny young rigger named Kelley.
Kelley worked hard at getting the ships ready for war. He also was very interested in helping as many girls and young women as possible from going man hungry. His dedication to the Liberty Ships and the ladies make interesting reading.
Dead, she is dead. The man shook Ernest to reality. The slow learner had stood guard on the topside of the liberty ship. A man had gone down and forward to visit a woman worker reputed to be selling favors through the back door opening of her drawers.
The man covered his badge nu¬mber on his shirt with the bib of his overalls from Ernest and hurried away quickly. He went toward the huge gangway exit. This was to fool the retard. Ernest saw the man turn aft to his job aboard the ship but did not know the worker. His overall figure looked no different to describe than of a hundred other workers on the liberty ship.
Ernest went on with his business as usual. When he was walking around below he saw the body of a dead woman. Ernest was confused, but finally came up and reported finding the dead woman.
The shipyard officials called the police and they sent me to find out how the woman had been killed and who had done it.
The End
