You see, I've figured II out that those
things of Tuppences are plant too,
and she's no more drowned than am.
The way reason Is this: as q last
chance they'll let Jane Finn escape In
the hope that she's been shamming this
memory stunt. and that once she thinks
she's free she'll go right" away to the
cache. or course lis an awful risk
for them to take, because she knows
all about them-but they're pretty des-
perate to get holS of that treaty. But
