change was due not only to the fall
of the chandelier on the famous night

The reader must know that the
ghost had calmly been paid his first
twenty thousand francs. Oh, there
had been wailing and gnashing OF
teeth, indeed! And yet the thing had
happened as simple as could be.
One morning, the managers found
on their table an envelope addressed

The managers did not hesitate;
without wasting time in asking how
these confounded communications
came to be delivered in an office

locked, they seized this opportunity
of laying hands on the mysterious
blackmailer. And. after telling the
