individual, who will appear upon the
scene later on. He has not yet re-
ceived his cue. But, since you mention
him, we may put him down in the cast
as X the unknown quantity of the
problem; for I do not yet know his
name. Now, then; let me see. Where
was I? Your interruption has made
me lose the thread. Oh, yes; the men
were in this room. Arbogast, nervous
and excited, paced back and forth,
like Gagged animal. Chatham was
more collected. 1t was warm in the
bank, as compared with the intense
cold outside; he removed his overcoat
and threw it over the back of that
chair in the corner. This fact is
shown by the direction of the footsteps
toward. the chair, and by mark di-
rectly below the arm of the chair
where the garment trailed upon the
wet floor. Chatham's carelessness was
fraught with serious consequences;
for, as luck would have it, there was,
in one of the pockets of his coat, an
important letter, which slipped out
and fell upon the floor superscription

self, which l have pieced together.
You will see that it Is soiled only upon
the back, and here near the chair is
the faint oblong mark which is left
upon the floor. Chatham went to the
telephone in the cashiers office. He
probably did not see the letter fall.
1t caught Arbogast's eye, however;
and you can imagine his surprise when
he saw that it was addressed to his
wife. What had his accomrliee to
write to his wife? Arbogast evidently
was not restrained by any feelings of
delicacy in the matter, or else he was
already suspicious of Chatham; for
he picked up the envelope, tore it open,
and read the letter which lies before
you, as l have pieced it together. 1t
makes interesting reading. l do not
wonder that Arbogast lost his head
when he saw it. Read it for yourself"
