been forced to yield to Captain Will

latter would have been superfiuous.

In "A sidewing of the building. at

where many valuable articles were
kept during the absence of the own
ers. The only entrance was through
strong door with a double lock. and
the one window, which also opened
upon the passage. was protected by an
iron grating. which, though not heavy,
was remarkably strong. In addition.
the corridor was closed by second
door. and Edward kept the keys of
both in his pocket. No assistance
could come from outside and her
