The car was left at Quilici’s garage. The following morning Quilici discovered the car damaged, the upholstery cut, the window broken, and a pair of journalist’s scissors lying inside the car. He was dissatisfied with the explanation and so retired from the paper. The Fascist counsel Farmarci formally disclaimed any connection between the Fascist Party and Filinelli- Reuter.
