A small table in the center of
the room had been set for after
noon tea for two. One side ofthe
table had been cleared, and pen
and ink and paper stood there.
The explanation of the writing
materials was found tightly
clutched in Delays left hand.
It was a will dated that day and

message in person.
Il have not seen my daughter
for FIVE hours" she told the po-
lice. Il am afraid something has
happened to her"
The police Immediately sent
out general order for a search
for Mrs. HOW'LL.
No one could be found who had
seen Mrs. HOW'LL after 5 o'clock
of that day. At that hour she had
left her mother saying she was
going to have tea with Delay in
his sitting room.
The coastguards who patrolled
the cliffs near the hotel had seen
Mrs. HOW'LL earlier in the day.
She had been. walking on the
cliffs with Delay, and Delay had
appeared to be pleading with her.
At times he stopped and grasped
both her hands. She seemed to
be refusing his plea, whatever it
was.
The days passed, and no other
trace of Mrs. Nowill could be
found. The police search had ex-

said she had been in the water
several days, but would not ven

would they say whether she had8
come to her death by drowning,
or had been killed before beingt
thrown into the water.
Sidney Nowill, the husband,
showed no particular emotion
when told of the finding of the
body of his wife.
So this is the sum of the known
facts in connection with the ac-
tual tragedy:
Mrs. Nowill and Delay walked
on the cliffs together in the after
noon. He urged her to some
course of action she refused to
take.
After their walk they returned{
to the hotel together. Their diff
ference on the cliff top had made
so little impression on Mrs. No
will that she told her mother she
was going to have tea with Delay.
Within the next few hours De-
lay, the millionaire gentleman of
leisure, hanged himself, and Mrs.
HOW'LL disappeared.
Either that day, or within the
next few days, Mrs. Nowill's
