But the time element. Conkling arrives late at night, having no communication with the deceased(s) since 7:30 or 8:00, presumably close to the time of death. Was he expecting to talk with them? Was he worried that he was unable to reach them? Suspicious?

As the first civilian on the scene after the murders, it must have been a pretty hair raising sight for those two associates. What does one think upon discovering such a scene? Might he not have had reason to fear that the killer(s) would still be around? Might he have not had reason to think he might have been included in the party if he had been there?

Well why weren't the two of them there earlier? They were supposed to spend the night at Bluebell Lane. Conkling lives in Pequannock. Why should they only have shown up at 1 a.m.?

>>>>first civilian on the scene after the murders<<<<

Wasn't it reported at first that the people that discovered the bodies were workmen that were scheduled to do some work? Then later reported that they were associates. Where did that reporter get the information that they were workmen? Did they try to hide the fact that they were associates? Could they have been who (if anyone was) the phones were used to call.
