[Merton of the Movies by Harry Leon Wilson]@TWC D-Link bookMerton of the Movies CHAPTER XIV 22/55
Benson was forced to march back into the Come All Ye Dance Hall.
As he went he was wishing that Baird would have him escape and flee on his old pal. And Baird was a man who seemed to think of everything, or perhaps he had often seen the real Buck Benson's play, for it now appeared that everything was going to be as Merton Gill wished.
Baird had even contrived an escape that was highly spectacular. Locked by the detective in an upper room, the prisoner went to the window and glanced out to find that his loyal horse was directly beneath him.
He would leap from the window, alight in the saddle after a twenty-foot drop, and be off over the border.
The window scene was shot, including a flash of the horse below.
