(T&G News Service): The plan had worked well...Cleo would take a nice nap and Miss Simone would go to her manager.  Her manager would have no choice, but to pay her for the return of Cleo.  Pay her a lot of money. 

Of course, there was the small problem that Cleo might wake up before Miss Simone had finalized the deal.  Miss Simone had figured decided to tie and gag the hapless singer, but rope and tape would leave telltale signs of captivity.  Miss Simone wasn't about to use her own expensive silk scarves to tie up the singer.  No, she decided that she would use bandannas.  It seemed appropriate.  A county singer tied up with bandannas.
