Illingworth looked with undisguised

These are the fingers of 4 left hand.
The hand was turned upside down
that is, with the thumb downward
as 1t grasped the edge of the door.
1t grasped the door very tightly-con-
FulSlVely. One reason why the marks
are as plain as they are is that the
owner OF the hand smokes a great
many cigarettes. that his fingers are
much stained at the tips, and that
"htn ne sfasped this door he was
perSpiring--very likely with fear OF
apprehension. But the popularity
is that these fingers, following them
upward, are the first. the third and
the fourth. The second finger is
missing"
