"Now," he continued, II want you to
instruct your butler-whom I under
stand has been with You for a number
Of years-to secure the prints Of all
the servants under your roof. Tell him
to make any excuse for it that he
wants to, but I must secure a complete
collection. Kindly have them sent to
my room the first thing In the morning.
Meanwhile, don't worry. If my In
structions are rigidly carried out, your
necklace should be discovered before
nine O'clock"
But Sweeney underestimated BY
some two hours. It was eleven o'clock
on the following. morning before he re-
ceived the complete set of finger
prints, and ten minutes later a pair Of
handcuffs was dangling from the wrists
Of William Sinclair, valet Of one of the
titled guests, and, az it afterwards de-
veloped, a man with a lengthy prison
record. The necklace was discovered
stowed away In the false bottom of

As Sweeney started back toward

him to be more careful in the future
not to attempt a theft unless he wore
