CHAPTER vi.

4 little man was striding about his
library with impatient stops. He
wore faded dressing gown. hand
some once, but remarkably shabby
now. and he wrapped it closely around
him though the heat of the weather
was intense. But Colonel Hope, large
as were his Golfers, never spent upon
himself superhuous farthins, espe-
cially in the way OF personal adorn-
ment; and Colonel Hope would not
havs fsat too warm. cas4d In sheep
skins, for he had spent the best part
Of his life in India, and was Of .
chilly nature.
The Colonel had that afternoon been
made acquainted with an unpleasant
transaction which had occurred In his
house. The household termed 1t q
mystery: he, scandalous robbery;
and he had written forthwith to the
nearest chief police station, demand
ing that an ofiicer might be dispatched
back with the messenger to investi-
gate It So there he was, waiting for
his return In impatient expectation,
and occasionally halting before the
window to look out on the busy Lon
don world.
The onicer at length came and was
introduced. The Colonel's wife, Lady
Sarah. Joined him then. and they pro-
ceeded to give him the outlines Of the
case, A valuable diamond bracelet,
recently presented to Lady Sarah BY
her husband, had disappeared in .
angular manner. Miss Seaton, the
companion to Lady Sarah. had tenn
porary charge Of the Jewel box. and
had brought It down the previous
evening. Thursday, this being Friday.
TO the back Of the drawing room, and
laid several pairs Of bracelets out on
the table ready for Lady Sarah, who
WAS going to the opera, to choose
which she would wear when she came
up from dinner. Lady Sarah chose
pair. and put. herself. the rest back
into the box. which Miss Seaton then
locked and carried to its place up
stAirs. In the few minutes that the
bracelets lay on the table the most
valuable one, diamond, disappeared
from It.
