door opened all eyes there turned to-

ton followed. The letter.
When the trial was resumed Maitre
Henri Robert questioned Daddy Ma

of the keeper. His wife was also
brought IN and was confronted by her
husband. She burst into tears and
confessed that she had been the keep

had suspected 1t. She again, how

Maitrc Henri Robert thcreupon asked

vocnte. "he has made me understand
that the death Of the keeper may have
been brought about otherwise than by
the hand Of Matthew. 1t will be in

Frederic Larsan was brought in.
His explanation was quite clear.

The murderer had In his hand the

This very simple explanati ton ap.
peared at once plausible and satisfying.
A murmur Of appreciation was heard.
"And the murderer? What became

HE was evidently hidden in an
obscure corner at the end Of the court
After the people had left the court,
carrying with them the body Of the
keeper, the murderer quietly made his
escape"
The words had scarcely left Lar.
sans mouth when from the back Of
the court came a youthful voice:

Everybody turned around. as.onish.
