Synopsis of Preceding Chapters

DR. GEORGE LESTER, an eminent young
- English toxicologist, was trespassing on the
fishing preserves of British peer, when he rem
dered slight service to Miss Edith Holt, secre-
tary to the Earl of Arncliffe, of the estate
He also encountered Harry Warren, domneer-
ing individual, who was Arncliffe'S agent.
Lester was subsequently called to the castle,
the regular physician being absent, and found
Arnclffe dead. He announced that the Earl had
been poisoned with arsenic.
Lester learned from Edith that Arncliffe had
been his Uester's) former patron and made a
hobby of collecting and studying poisons.
Angler, Arnciffe's solicitor arrived at the Hall,
and announced that the Earl had feared he was
being poisoned and left ten thousand pounds to
go to the person chiefly responsible for the con-
victon of his murderer
Warren was credited with trifng with the
named May Mannering
Arnclifes will left the bulk of his property
to Edith.
Lester was impudently confronted by Warren
and promptly knocked the latter down He

with Edith.
of Arncliffe's death was held at the Hall. Much
interest was manifested in the testimony that
Edith had secured three hundred pounds from
the Earl shortly before his death. The Coroner
announced that witness from New York had
just arrived. This was William Lincoln Brad
shaw. nephew of Lord Arncffe's, who had
written letters 20 the latter that evidently had
been intercepted.
The three hundred pounds that Edith had been
given were for her brother, but as the latter
scapegIace she feared that if the purpose of the
gift was known it would ruin his future.
Edith insisted that she would give the Arm
cliffe fortune to Bradshaw.
Warren had been embezzlng thousands of
pounds from Lord ArncliHe and in getting pos

murderous blow on the head, without the lawyer
seeing him. The latter was not killed. In rush

seen the deed and secured possession of the books

Lester walked away abruptly. Then,
moved by a sudden impulse, he turned
back Here he said with something
of apology in his voice, take this, y and
dropping a sovereign into Brading's un-
suspecting palm, he nodded and went off
at brisk pace.
The fact was that Lester began to feel
a trihe ashamed of himself. In his fiery
zeal for Edith he had behaved rather like
the hero of a melodrama, and he had all
the true Englishman's horror of betraying
emotion of any sort. Then again, this
busybody of a detective was acting only
according to his lights, and those lights
meant what the average man calls a dis
agreeable prying into other people S
business
Brading's income, what with matters
of illicit generosity and ct ceteraS-many
ct ceteraS-approximate to five hundred
pounds a year, and Testers sovereign
was the most unkind cut of all. He look
ed at it and flung it to the ground, stamp
ing upon it in a sudden access of fury.
The impudence of it" he muttered.
The sovereign twinkled up at him
from the gravel.
"I'll get level with him before I've
finished" he growled; but the sovereign
sparkled SO that he picked it up and put
it in his waistcoat pocket. And then he
laughed grimly.
There were two letters" he said.
LET me see whether | have managed
to keep the best one You're clever, Dr.
Lester, but you've made mistake this
time"
Edith had, in fact, posted two letters,
and Brading had given Lester only the
first that came to hand. Now he sat
on a grassy bank to investigate.
"'Sidney Holt" he read on the
enve1op-''I don't like that-and US.
Al don't like that either"
He produced little implement like
a pair of miniature curling -tongs, and
inserting it in the corner of the envelop,
gripped the edge of the letter and began
to twist. This is an invention for which
the world is indebted to the Russian
censor. In two minutes Brading had
the letter out and in front of his eager
eyes. He read:
My DEAR BoY-Come home at once. l am
IN dreadlul trOuDle- GU can put Inl1lgS rlgnt
for me- Lord Arnclife's letter will explain that
he gave the three hundred pounds to start you
in America. Tell nothing to anyone until you
have seen me.
Brading read the letter through many
times, but could find only transparent
honesty in every line.
Sometimes, =" he murmured, carefully
returning it to the envelop, Il am almost
afraid that the young lady is innocent. "

we will say no more about it. y
Miss Hollis letter." exclaimed Brad
ing, assuming an expression of wooden
surprise. Il don't"
Don't waste your fnesse on me, my
man, if you pleased" said Lester sharply,
g. watched the whole business from my
window, from the time you fixed up your
contrivance in the mail-box until you
went back and fetched it away, and with
it Miss Hollis letter-the letter you are
now carrying in your breastpocket.
Brading, finding himself cornered, tried
buster Look here" he began in the
pompous tone of the policeman, "you
must not interfere with me in the execu-
ton of my duty! l have authority for all
| do, and it is a serious matter to attempt
to defeat the ends of justice"
Don't talk nonsense, Brading," said
Lester contemptuous1y. You have no
authority to rob letter-boxes. You know
as well as l do that it is an offense which
might send you to penal servitude. How
ever, am not going to argue the point
with you. Give me that letter, please"
Brading tried another tack. ut is all
taking letters from the box, but am not
to be blufed by you or anyone else. You
may accuse me; your accusation will take
lot of proving"
Lester laughed-a laugh that had in it
a quality which made the detective eye
him alertly. In the course of long
experience of hard men he had never
heard that kind of laugh without some
body receiving bodily injury in the near
future.
1T will not take any proving" said
Lester CURLY. q am bigger man than
you Brading, and a younger man and
stronger man. If you do not give me
that letter this instant l shall remove
it from your coat by the Use of as much
force as may be necessary"
Brading looked Lester up and down
with glance of bitter annoyance. There
was no mistaking that the young doctor
meant each word he said, and though the
detective was brave enough in the dis
charge of his duty, he saw himself at dis
advantage in every respect. Physically
he was no match for Lester, and in any
case he knew very we'll that his tampering
with the mails was indefensible. The
detective therefore surrendered at dis
cretion and handed over Edith's letter
with as good a grace as possible.
There you are, sir" he said. ''You
must have your own way because l am
in the wrong; but let me tell you, you are
making great mistake. If the young lady
is innocent, it can't do her any harm"
No harm" interrupted Lester indig-
nantly, Ito have her private cores
pondence tempered With"
Bless you, SRI" said Brading, if
it is just harmless correspondence, l
should not remember a word of it five
minutes after l had read it. l have
enough to keep in mind without bother
ing myself with other peoples private
affairs. But one thing is certain. There is
a man in this case, and when we get hold
of that man we'll be on the right track"
The detective noted with instant salts
faction that Testers bronzed cheek paled
a little. Here then was the opportunity.
He had already suspected that the young
doctor was in love with Miss Holt, and a
