at Ethel r1amilton's request, went over
the deceased's papers. He was struck
by the number of gold and silver mine
prospectuses which poor Hamilton had
accumulated. AS he tossed them one
after another into the wastepaper bas-
ket he observed some pencil memoran-
da, in the generals handwriting. on a
prospectus from which the wrapper had
not been removed The Dullwitch post
mark caught his eye. This struck him
as odd. Prospectuses pre not usually

over the contents of the basket on the
floor, and found several torn wrappers
which he minutely examined. Then

had received from day to day, he Pc

CHAPTER II.

| C1AfIE0 IL.
Hedford explained to the two girls
| that he was summoned away for few
days on business Of the most urgent
nature. Before leaving he handed to
Ethel Hamilton a twenty-pound bank
lnote which he found in the generals s
writing desk. Owing to the fact that
he had placed it there himself no one
had a better right to find 1t.
The specialist was a kindly man,
although vivisectionist.
The next evening bedford arrived at
Dullwitch. He was met at the station
| by Trowbrigg. Dullwitch Is n small
country village on the Great Northern
line, some seven or eight miles from
the large manufacturing town of Star
| lington.
The detective took much interest In
| thre poe arrangements of the village.
Surgeon Colonel Hedford had apparent
ly no other object in life than golfing,
to which fascinating pursuit he devoted
himself with great energy. He got to
know many of the golfers.
on the third morning of his stay in
Dullwitch, he was met on the links by
| Trowbrigg, who took from his pocket a
newspaper the Starlington News Let
ter, and pointed to a paragraph marked
in blue pencil: "Dullwitch Hospital

five hundred pounds to the treasurer OF
the Dullwitch hospital. If the other
life governors would follow his prince

Hedford read no more. The hospital
was situated at the outskirts of the vii

| modest subscription of five pounds. Dr.
Grey was much pleased with the inter-

Surgeon Colonel John Hedford. late
of the Indian medical service, lived in
tho large provincial city OF Salchester.
During long residence In India he had
given much time and study to the ac.
ton of poisons on organic life. HIS
knowledge of the subject became so eX-
haustive that had he lived In the time
Of the Borgias the lucrative appoint
ment of court poisoner would have been
his. AS 1t was, however, his speciality
enabled him to supplement his income
by acting as an expert when called on.
His book on toxicology, which he mod
estly entitled 'Some Remarks on the
Nature and Effect of Indian Poisons,
had been favorably reviewed by the
Lancet and the British Medical Journal
and bade fair to become text book in
the schools.
One morning he was watching the
death throes of mouse to which he had
administered a new ptomaine, when a
letter, marked "immediate," was deliv-
ered by u commissionaire. 1t read as
follows:

Now cast your net wherever you wish

So cried the stars to the fishermen three

All night long their nets they threw
