The trolley stop was about two blocks from the plant. Eddie saw a seat next to an elderly woman who appeared to have come to town for groceries. The trolley was crowded, and she had two sacks of food in the empty seat next to her. Reluctantly, without saying a word, she put the sacks in her lap and Eddie sat down. He had not been seated for more than a minute, before he nodded off. When the lady next to him squeezed past to get out, he woke up and saw a newspaper sitting on the seat across from him. He picked it up and found the story of the murder on the front page. There was no real information other than a short background on LaRue and the fact that he was employed at Aron's. Luckily, his name was not mentioned, at least not yet. For some reason, he knew that before this was all settled, his name would show up in the papers, connected to the murder. His stop came, and he took the paper with him to read later.
