The ex-F.B.I. man, it developed, had made a noble effort
to polish off all of the liquor in the Katzenjammer Bar in the
500 block of Çamp Street. He had made his way back to his office
where he became embroiled in a heated argument with Martin, a
sometime private detective and hanger-or at the former's office.
The imbroglio erupted as the result of an injudicious
observation by Martin, who also had been imbibing rather freely.

Martin had been so rash as to inform Banister, during the course
of their quarrel, that he had not forgotten certain unusual
things which had been happening at the office during the summer.
This was not just another drunken donnybrook between two
men which, at the end of the shouting, was over and done with.
It would have a lasting effect, quite disproportionate in its
enormity to the incident itself. Where Banister had been out of
character in beating Martin, the latter -- hurting not only in
his head but in his pride -- abandoned his customary unassertive
character, his long playing role as the feckless, but unassertive
runner of errands and a reaction which Banister could not have
anticipated seems to have been triggered within the mousy
exterior of the Jack Martin of old.
It should be observed that a .357 magnum -- such as the
weapon with which Banister massaged Martin's head -- is not an
ordinary hand gun. It is extraordinarily heavy in order to
support its increased muzzle velocity. The brief altercation had
converted Martin, in a matter of a minute or two, into a hospital
case and a police patrol car carted him off to Charity Hospital
on Tulane Avenue. It also had an even more dynamic result. It
