when he had described all that had happened
in Brtargate and at Parminter; "but last

to a focus. Once having got a clew, they
worked marvelously well. They got hold Of
half a dozen photographs Of this Mr.. Foy,
who had been vain enough to get himself
photographed, at different times, by all the
leading photographers of Grandchester.
Provided with these, they went the round OF
the chemists shops, and found where my

two days and two nights, and while they
were there the young woman got worse, and
was SO ill that she had to be carried to the
station when the young man, who owned to
being her husband, took her away. He was

The inquest was reopened on Monday, and
the evidence against CASTOR Foy was SO
complete in all its d.tni s that the jury had
not a moments hesitation in order ng the
immediate release of George Caulf I'D, who
left Milldale by an afternoon train, and off,

that night. How happy he and his mother
were as they sat side by side in the railway
carriage on the journey back to London.
Il think it will be a long time before I
shall care to travel at night and alone" said
the curate. "The memory of that awful
hour between Grandchester and Milldale
would be too vivid"
