"How do you account for the appear

the letter had been published. and, not
being ablo to find the copy had left

that some reporter had secured the copy
in come way unknown to me. Ever since
this terrible calamity I have been writing
all over the house, whenever had .

IN some way it was found out that had
registered the letter, and some one or
two men arranged to call, and, after one
had gone in to look at the rooms, the
other would ring, and. while his cali was
being answered by the servant, the other
made free with my papers. This is the
theory the rest Of the family advances as
the only one.
To solve the mystery. It might have
been several days before registered the

it might have been kept quiet until it
