Bill nodded thoughtfully and went
back again to the letter.
II see. And you told Cayley that
you were t~elegraphing to Marks
dentist?"
Eyes. And then of course it was
all up for him. Once we knew that
Robert was Mark we knew every
thing"
How did you know"
Antony got up from the breakfast
table and began to fill his pipe.
well. let's see if / can go through
my own mind again. and tell you
how 1 guessed it. First of all, the
clothes"
"Yes?"
ITO Cayley the clothes seemed an
| enormously important clue. l felt
certain that, in that case, the alb
sence of the collar was unintention-
al. In collecting the clothes he had
overlooked the collar. Why?"
1T was the one in the linen
basket?"
yes. 1t seemed probable. Why
had Cayley put it there? The OBJ
vious answer was nat he hadn't.
Mark had put it there"
Go on" said Bill eagerly.
well. why had Mark changed
down there instead of in his bed
room? The only answer was that
the fact of his changing had to be
kept secret. When did he change ?
The"only possible time was between
lunch (when he would be seen by
the servants) and the of
Roberts arrival. And when did Cav
ley collect the clothes in a bundle
Again. the only answer was Before
Roberts arrival So another X was
wanted-to fit those three ccndi-
tons"
And the answer was thai a muir
der was intended, yer before Rob
ert arrived? ?"
Yes. Well now. it wasn't possible
a murder could be intended without
any more preparation than the
changing into a different suit in
V hich to escape. The thing was too
childish. Also,. if Robert was to be
murdered, why go out of the way to
announce his existence to you all?
began to feel now that Robert was
an incident only; hat the plot was
a plot of Cayley's against Mark
either to get him to kill his brother,
Or to get his brother to kill him
and hat for some inexplicable rea-
sol Mark seemed to be lending him
self to the plot" He was silent for
a little, and then said, almost to
himself, Il had seen the empty
brandy bottles in that cupboard"
You never said anything about
them" complained Bill.
Il only saw them afterward. ]
was looking for the collar, you re-
member. They came back TO me
afterwards; l knew how Cayley
would feel about it . . Poor
devil!"
GO on" said Bill.
well, then, we had the inquest.
and of course l noticed the curious
fact hat Robert had asked his way
at the second lodge and not at the
first. So I talked to Amos and Par
sons. That made it more curious.
Amos told me that Robert had gone
out of his way to speak to him.
parsons told me that his wife
was out in their little garden It the
first lodge all the afternoon and was
certain hat Robert had never come
past it. He also told me that Cay
ley had put him on to a job on the
front lawn hat afternoon. SO l
had another guess. Robert had used
the secret passage-the passage
which comes out into the park be-
tween the first and second lodges.
Robert, then, had been in the house;
it was a put-up job between Robert
and Cayley. But how could Robert
be there without Mark knowing?
Obviously, Mark knew too. What
sdid it all mean?"
when was this?" interrupted

1.-THE announcement at breakfast

had gone off we had the morning in
which to complete our arrange
nents. What | was chiefly concern
ed about was to establish as com
oletely Us possible the identity of
Robert. For this reason | suggested
20 Mark that, when dressed, he
should go out by the secret passage
20 the bowling-green, and come back
oy the drive, taking care to enter
into conversation with the lodge
keeper.
I'm this way l would have two
more witnesses to Roberts arrival

Mark, of course, was willing enough.
y He could practice his Australian &C
cent on the lodge-keeper. 1t was

ne fell into every suggestion which l
made. Never was a killing more
carefully planned by its victim.
"He changed into Roberts clothes

he was ready he called me in, and l
Inspected him. 1t was extraordinary

II peered into the hall. 1t was
empty. We hurried across to the
library; he got into the passage and
made off. l went back to the bed
room. collected all his discarded
clothes, did them up in a bundle and
returned with them to the passage.
Then l sat down in the hall and
waited.
"You heard the evidence Of

everything. but as it turned out it
was the luckiest thing which could

piece of evidence which l wanted;
evidence, other than my own, that
Mark and Robert were in the room
together.

The control of the railroads en-
