ever, q victim. Merely a, dog
one of the Knayth deerhounds,
that has Tapped the pool OF water
among the stones, and is found
in the grounds-Nead. The cause
Of death? Strychnine poisoning.
No one pays any attention to
the incident. Nothing is thought
of it. Who, at such g. point,
would connect the dogs death
with the decanter from the dining
table? Miguel has covered his
action very we'll. You may well
think it an insane trick for him
TO play; but there is frequently
q strain OF insanity in criminals,
even in their cunning. The man
was mad with baffled desire, and
greedy for vengeance.
Miguel for the time has failed.
But he is safe. No action is taken
against him for his instrusion at
Knayth. Lady Tallbois has not
complained to the police. She does
not, apparently, want her connec-
ton with this half-breed advent
urer advertised. And she treats
him and his threats with contempt
You have seen her in the box.
Lady Tallbois is bitter, passionate,
vindictfve, an amazing woman,
but she has one Qua1ity-courage.
Courage even to folly.
Miguel clearly is still watching,
still shadowing her-stiIl hoping
for a better opportunity. And
fate plays into his hands. What
happens next? Lady Tallbois
misses the Knayth pearls. she
believes-or has it suggested to her
that Mrs. Mottisfont knows the
truth about the pearls.
I'm q London street, an anony.
mos letter, most slxillfuliy con.
coet ID, is thrust into her hand
bid4fng her go to Mrs. Mottisfont
ana OAaim the necklace. Impulsiye
and credulous always, she goes
forthwith to act ON that advice.
She has told you that she lost
the letter. It falls into the hands
Of Miguel Casas. Whether by ac-
ctdent or design, DO not know
or care-the one thing sure Is
that Miguel had the letter, for
It was found on his dead body
and you yourselves have seen IT,.
Miguel, therefore, knowing Eng.
lish and speaking and reading II
f1uently-was at once in possession
Of the knowledge that Lady Tallboie
would to a certainty confront Mrs.
Mottisfont. at the very hour given
that she would find her alone,
and q scene was inevitable. The
cunning brain OF the Floridan
seized upon all the possibilities OF
the situation very swiftly. Here
was p chance well worth trying
and evNrvthiuns in HIS favnR. ~ he
could only forestall Lady Tallbois
