As Suntolne waited n moment be

anNiouAy The blind man turned
himself on hts pillows so as TO face
Eaton more directly.
Just ten days ago" he said evenly

hand and for the same purpose.
Mrs wartien's statement to me of
her Interview with her husband a
half.hour before his murder. made II
certain that the object Of the attack
on him was to remove him. 1t
seemed almost Inevitable, therefore,
that the attack on me must have been
for the same purpose.
Il found that young man-your-
,0slf-had acted 50 suxpiciously both
before and after the attack on me
seAat both Avery and the conductor
IN charge of the train had become
ieonvinced that he was my assaifant,
