Many years ago, I read a collection that contained a '40s short story
about an implacable robot that was pursuing a murderer through the
streets of future Somewhere in order to execute him for his crimes. 
The robot didn't need rest and would never stop.  I've long been trying
to find the story again, but without success.  I think it might have
been written by Henry Slesar, but at this very late date I'm not at all
sure.

Also, did anybody ever produce the memo that Ellison claims said
something to the effect of "Let's screw this little Jew and steal his
idea"?
