Meanwhile. let me see the inside of the
cabin"
The traces of the tragedy had been re-
moved, but the furniture within the
little room still stood as 1t had been
on the night of the crime. For two
hours, with most intense concentra-
tion, Holmes examined every object in
turn, but his face showed that his
quest was not successful one. Once
only he paused in his patient investi-
cation.

shelf, Hopkins?'

Something has been taken. There
is less dust in this corner of the shelf
than elsewhere. 1t may have been a
book lying on it's side. 1t may have
been a box. Well, well, 1 can do moth
ing more. Let us walk in these beau
tiful woods, Watson, and give a few
hours to the birds and the flowers. We
shall meet you here later, Hopkins, and
see II we can come to closer quarters

visit in the night"

silence, and ! had begun to fear that
it was a false alarm, when a stealthy
step was heard upon the other side of
the hut, and moment later a metallic
scraping and clinking.> The man was
trying to force the lock. This time his
skill was greater or his tool was bet

a creak of the hinges. Then a match

Exactly. Neligan was my father"
At last we we're getting something
positive, and yet it seemed long gap
between an absconding banker and
wall with one of bis own harpoons. we
all listened intently to the young mans
words.
1T was my father who was really
concerned. Dawson had retired. I was
only ten years of age at the time, but
was old enough to feel the shame and
horror of 1t all. 1t has always been
said that my father stole all the securi-
ties and fled. 1t is not true. 1t was his
belief that if he were given time in
which to realize them all would be well
and every creditor paid in full. He
started IN his little yacht for Norway
just before the warrant was issued for
his arrest. can remember that last
night. when he bade farewell to my
ties he was taking, and he swore that
he would come back with his honor
cleared, and that none who had trusted
him would suffer. Well, no word was
ever heard from him again. Both the
yacht and he vanished utterly. We be-
lieved. my mother and I, that he and it.
with the securities that he had taken
with him were at the bottom of
the sea. We had faithful
friend, however, who is a business
man, and it was he who discovered
some time ago that some of the securi-
ties which my father had with him had
reappeared on the London market. You
can imagine our an1azement. / spent
months in trying to trace them, and at
last, after many doubtings and diff
culties. L discovered that the original
seller had been Captain Peter Carey.
the owner of this hut.
Naturally, I made some INQUIRIES
about the man. I found that he had
been in command of a whaler which
was due to return from the Arctic seas
at the very time when my father was
crossing to Norway. The autumn of
that year was a stormy one, and there
was long succession of southerlv
gales. My fathers yacht may we'll
have been blown to the north and
there met by Captain Peter Carey's
ship. If that were so, what had become
or my father? In any case, IL
could prove from Peter Carey's
evidence how these securities
came on the market it

II came down to Sussex with the In
iention of seeing the captain. but IT
was at this moment that his terrible
death occurred. 1 read at the inquest
a description of his cabin. In which II
stated that the old logbooks OF his
vessel were preserved in 1t. 1t struck

OF this volume until he came to the en-
try which he sought. Then. with an
angry gesture of his clenched hand. he
closed the book. replaced it in the cor
ner and put out the light. He had
hardly turned to leave the hut when

that this would rouse the suspicious
of the stranger. The lock was a per-
fectly simple one, and only strong
blade was needed to push it back.
Holmes also suggested that we should
wait, not inside the hut, but outside

the farther window In this way we
should be able to watch our man if he
struck a light, and see what his object
