Nick Carter, Master Detective - Mind Over Murder

In Nick Carter's office, Nick and Patsy are interviewing a stranger, a young man who has just called to consult Nick. Nick asks "How did you happen to come here?" The young man says "Well, I asked a policeman where I could find a good detective and he gave me your name". Patsy says "Suppose you tell us what's bothering you". The young man says "Well, three mornings ago, I woke up in a strange bed in a strange apartment. I had no idea where I was, until a young lady told me that it was her apartment". Nick says "Judging by the bandage around your head, you must have had an accident. Was that before, or after you woke up in this strange bed?" The young man says "It must have been before. I don't remember anything about it. The girl from the apartment said me she found me on the steps of her apartment house last Friday night, or rather Saturday morning as she returned from a party. Seeing that I was injured, she managed to get me up to her place and called her doctor. Well, the doctor said my injury wasn't serious, but I had to be quiet for a few days. So, she let me stay there for the night. The next morning, even though I was able to answer her questions, I knew nothing about myself. I had to tell her something, so I invented a name, told her some story about being from out of town, and having a bad fall". Nick asks "What name did you give her?" The young man says "John Powell". Patsy asks "Does that name mean anything to you?" The young man says "No, I just picked it out of the air". Patsy asks "What makes you think you may be a criminal?" The young man says "This" and empties his pockets. Patsy says "Good grief, Nick. Look at all that money". The young man says "Yes, there's over ten thousand dollars there, plus some very expensive jewelry".
