He looks very much like a Cavalier soldier supporters of the King from the English Civil War of the 1640s.Then gunshots are heard and Satterthwaite finds that two of the guests have been shot dead - soon followed by a sighting of the gentleman in the once-again newly replaced windowpane. Can Mr. Quin shed light on the mystery?Librarian's note: the short story was previously published in the print anthology The Mysterious Mr. Quin.
