          Jill leaves the Winter house.

WA:       Steven Cord has given up the weapon he had planned to use 
          against Rodney Harrington.  The weapon was a promissory note 
          signed by Rodney's father which involved a murder plot against 
          Martin Peyton.  Steven had determined to show the note to 
          Rodney to cause discension between Rodney and his wife, Betty.  
          Now, Rodney is fighting for his life in Doctors Hospital the 
          victim of a motorcycle accident.  An accident caused by Steven.  
          And there is no need for a weapon against Rodney.  Rodney has 
          been hurt enough, far beyond Steven's wishes.

Scene 3:  In the Winter home, Tom is sitting and reading as the phone 
          rings.  He calls for Jill to get the phone.  She doesn't 
          respond so Tom answers the phone himself.  He picks up the 
          phone.  No one is on the line so he goes upstairs to check up 
          on Jill.  Jill is gone.  Tom goes to Susan's room to ask where 
          Jill is.  Tom accuses Susan of forcing Jill to leave.  Tom

Scene 6:  In the Peyton mansion, Steven is pouring a drink.  He hands it 
          to Susan.  Susan says that Jill just took off.  He

          that he is not worthy to serve God. 

Scene 7:  Tom goes to the hospital and speaks to miss Choate.  She gives 
          him some messages and says that Mrs. Newton wants to see him.
