enough to convince him that something terrible had occurred. Mrs. Marker Is
 prepared to swear that the professor was still in his night clothes, and, in- deed, it was impossible for him to dress without the help of Mortimer,
 whose orders were to come at 12 o'clock. The professor declares that he heard the distant cry, but that he knows nothing more. He can give no explanation of the young mans last words, The professor-it was she,' but imagines that they were the outcome of delirium. He believes that Willough- by Smith had not an enemy in the world, and can give no reason for the crime. His first action was to send
 Mortimer, the gardener for the local police. A little later the chief con- stable sent for me- Nothing was nov ed before got there, and strict orders were given that no one should walk up- on the paths leading to the house. It

 When the light of the hall lamp fell upon our midnight visitor I had no diff fculty in recognizing him. It was young Stanley Hopkins. a promising detective. in whose career Holmes had several times shown a very practical interest.

Ii was a wild. tempestuous night, to- ward the close of November. Holmes and I sat together in silence all the evening. he engaged with a powerful lens deciphering the remains of the original inscription upon a palimpsest, I deep in q recent treatise upon sur- gery.

 Except Mir. Sherlock Holmes," said my companion, with somewhat bitter smile. Well, let us hear about 1t. What sort of job did you make of it?"
 T must ask you first, Mir. Holmes, to glance at this rough plan, which will give you a general idea of the position of the professors study and the vari- ous points of the case. It will help you in following my investigation"
 He unfolded the rough chart, which here reproduce, and he laid it across Holmes knee. rose and, standing be- hind Holmes, studied 1t over his shoul- der.
 Tt is very rough, of course, and it on- ly deals with the points which seem to me to be essential. All the rest you will see later for yourself.

The escape must have also been made along that line, for of the two other exits from the room one was blocked by Susan as she ran downstairs and the other leads straight to the professors bedroom. therefore directed my attention at once to the garden path, which was saturated with recent rain and would certainly show any footmarks.
 My examination showed me that 1 was dealing with a cautious and ex- pert criminal No footmarks were to be found on the path. There could be . no question. however. that some one had passed along the grass border

by an elderly man, who gave the name of Professor Coram. He was an in- valid, keeping his bed half the time and the other half hobbling round the house with a stick or being pushed about the grounds by the gardener in a bath chair. He was well liked by the few neighbors who called upon him, and he has the reputation down there of being very learned man. His household used to consist of an elderly housekeeper, Mrs. Marker, and of maid, Susan Tarlton. These have both been with him since his arrival, and they seem to be women of excel lent character The professor is writ ing learned book, and he found it necessary about year ago to engage a secretary. The first two that he tried were not successes, but the third, MT. Willoughby Smith, a very young man straight from the university, seems to have been just what his employer
