#7

Synopsis

Concerned about the number of hatchet murders in the community, Mrs. North begins to believe that her part-time maid may indeed be the culprit, and circumstances around the house seem to verify her conclusion. Later, scared to death, she murders the maid when suddenly her husband enters the home and tells her that the real killer had been caught hours before.
