BARLEY accepted his statement with
shrug of disappointment, and
turned his attention to the butler.
He was man of about fifty-five,
tall, with rather thin face of the IN
emotional kind common to buffers
Though he refused to meet Bartley's
eyes, he did not seem to be in the least
nervous. What had taken place that
night he evidently accepted as some
thing he could not help and need not
worry over.
BARLEY asked him first about the
men that were at the card party. To
my surprise the butler said he was
unable to give the names of all the
men, though he knew most of them.
BARLEY took down In a little red
notebook the names of such men as
he could remember. Then he asked
suddenly, And what was the name

The question seemed to surprise the
butler, but he answered, MIR. Law

New York to investigate q mys-
FERROUS attempted robbery of the
Robert Slyke home at Circle Lake.

an old case, Is interested and agrees
to solve the mystery. With his
friend, Pelt, newspaper man.
BARLEY goes to Circle Lake, the
pair becoming the guests of Bob
Currie, an old friend. The three
visit the Slyke home. Slyke re-
sents Bartley's coming, saying he
is satisfied the two men in prison
are guilty: BARLEY is not. Next
morning Slyke is found dead in
bed, apparently having shot him
self. Miss Potter, the dead mans
sister-in-law, the village police
chief Roche, and the family phy-
eician, Doctor King, all agree Slyke
killed himself, but BARLEY insists
he was murdered. Investigating.
BARLEY finds evidence that Slyke,
safter a card party he had given,
was shot on the tower of the house,
undressed, and placed in bed. Dur
ing his absence from the room
someone removes the revolver
from Sykes hand. A boy working
in the garage asserts he heard a
