had no way of finding out, n the
inquest was proceeding.
The report of the coroner physician
came next. The post-mortem examina-
ton showed that the bullet had en-
tered the chest in the fourth left inter-
costal spaee and had taken an oblique
course downward and backward, pierre
ing both the heart and llngs. The left
lung was collapsed, and the exit point
of the ball had been found in the mus
cles of the back to the left of the spinal
column. 1t was improbable hat such
a wound had been self-inficted, and
its oblique downward course pointed 20
the fact that the shot had been fired
from above. In other words. as the
murdered man had been found dead at
the DOT of a staircase, it was Probable
that the shot had been fired by some
one higher up on the stairs. There
were no marks of powder. The bullet,
a .3S-calibre, had been found in the
dead mans clothing and was shown
TO the jury.
Mr.. Jarvis was called next, but his
testimony amounted to little. He had
been summoned by telephone to Sun
nyside. had come over at once with
the steward and Mr.. Winthrop, at
present out Of town. They had beer
admitted by the housekeeper. and had
found the body lying at the foot of the
staircase. He had made a search for
a weapon, but there was none around.
The outer entry door in the east wing
had been unfastene6 and was open
about an inch.

nervous When the coroner called Mr..
John Bailey. the room was filed with
suppressed excitement. Mr.. Jameson
went forward and spoke a few words
to the coroner, who nodded. Then
Halsey was called.
Mr.. %Innes,' the coroner said, will
you tell under what circumstances YOU
saw Mr.. Arnold Armstrong the night
he died?"
Il saw him first at the Country
Club" Halsey said quietly. HE was
rather pale, but very composed. /

gasolene. Mr.. Armstrong had been
playing cards. When l saw him there
he was coming out of the cardroom,
talking to Mr.. John Bailey"
THE nature of the discussion-was
it amicable?'
Halsey hesitated.
'They We're having a dispute he
said. II asked Mr.. Bailey to leave
the club with me and come to Sunny
side over Sunday"
isn't it a fact, that you took Mr..
Bailey away from the clubhouse be-
tcause you were afraid there would be
blows?"
THE situation was unpleasant"
Halsey said, e~vasively.

could ave been s~elf-inhicted, but with
difficulty. and there had been no
weapon found.
The doctors examination, was over,
but he hesitated and cleared his throat.
Mr.. Coroner" he said, at the risk
of taking up valuable time, l would
like to speak of an incident that may
or may not throw some light on this
matter"
The audience was alert at once.
Kindly proceed, DOCTOR the coroner
said.

from Casanova" the doctor began. In
the absence of DIR. Walker, a num-
Der of Casanova people have been con-
sulting me. A month ago-1ve weeks,
to be exact-a woman whom / had

in deep mourning and kept her veil
down. and she brought for examination
a child, a boy of 6. The little fellow
was ill; it looked like typhoid, and the
mother was frantic. She wanted a
permit to admit the youngster to the
Children's Hospital in town here. where
| am a member of the staff, and l
gave her one. The incident would have
escaped me, but for a curious thing.
Two days before Mr.. Armstrong was
shot l was sent for to go to the Coun-
try Club; some one had been struck
with a golf-ball that had gone wild. 1t
was late when l left was on foot and
about a mile from the club, on the
Claysburg road, I met two people. They
were ~disputing violently. and I had no
difficulty in recognizing Mr.. Armstrong.
The woman. beyond doubt, was the
one who had consulted me about the
child"
AT this hint of scandal, Mrs. Ogden
Fitzhugh sat up very straight. jamie
son was looking slightly skeptical, and
the coroner made a note.
THE Children's Hospital, you say,
doctor" he asked.
Yes. But the child, who was en-
tered as Lucien Wallace. was taken
away by his mother two weeks ago. I
have tried to trace them and failed"
