about my visitor to him-at all events not
until kfourd out who or what the intruder
was.
THAT evening I returned to the hut
after my days work. l had found my
first nugget, which, however, was a very
small one. and was entering the door, when
l saw my brother sitting on n stool, with a
coat across his knees, which seemed to per-
plex him very much. When he saw me
he called me, and asked me if ! could &C.
count for two holes which were in the back
of the coat he was examining. of course,
I knew nothing about them. He said he
had left the coat hanging in the corner, and
had lust found it dow behind the chest,
and with those two holes, which he thought
very like pistol shots through the back.
1.-THE explanation flashed across my
mind Immediately: my midnight robber
was nothing else than my brothers coat
hanging on the WALL On examining it
further | found the loop by which it hung
was cut, evidently by one of the shots, and
this accounted for its falling.
Il need scarcely say what laughter it
caused when l told my brother this but
small adventure as it seems. / shall never
forget my night with the gold robber."
