 Samuel Honeybun, retired Eng fish countryman, finds blood in his rain gauge on the morning of the murder of Sir Francis Lathrop.
 Sir Guy Lathrop Is suspected of the murder, and Inspector Roake of Scotland Yard Is prevented from ar resting him by Sir Guy going Into hiding. Meanwhile
 Adrian Klyne, private detective employed by Margaret, daughter of the murdered man, who is engaged 10 marry Sir Guy, suspects Honey bun, his son, James Honeybun. and
 Wilmot Honeybun's chauffeur, who Is in love with Adela Larkin, daughter of Rev. Septimus l.arkin, who figures in the mystery through the finding of blood in his rain gauge, shortly after the murder of Sir Lathrop. Rev. Larkin has received letter | from
 Silas Stampage, who found blood in his rain gauge on two occasions, at short intervals, during the in- ! vcstigation of the murder. He tells the pastor that Lord Bulpeter" Ca pose assumed by klyne to trick Roako). is a fraud, He suggests Adela prevent further activity Of the bothersomc Lord Bulpeter." : NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY "A letter from your Uncle Silas,' , he said, handing her the document and watching her as she read. "l think you told me that you had met this Lord Bulpeter, whose 1 services Roake has communicated, '" he said as she passed the letter back, What age should you say he is?"
 Adela screwed up her eyes, as i though 10 tathom her fathers in tention in putting the question. ! Unless he Is made up to look { younger than he is I should put { him down at about thirty i've" she replied
 Then he is an inspector" de- clared Mir Larllin. You have seen what your Uncle Silas writes about : his age. No one would he so silly as to try 10 deceive a Scotland Yard detective by disguising himself"
 Why have you shown me this I1tt Hpt te l,o& to do'" Adela inquired of her par ent,
 AS Inspector Roake seems un- able 10 help himself it is our duty as good citizens to help him." the Rector reloined. This false Lord Bulpeter will be the undoing of him otherwise - upset his plans for the arrest of Sir Francis Lathrop's mur- derer, A hint might be dropped tc - CT - our executioner - mear Wilmot the chauffeur h Roake's understudy would make al ornamental addition to Kingdom Come"
 why not call a spade spade father"" said Adela. You want tn chauffeur to do the self-styled Lorc Bulpeter in. I agree that he Is ; danger and I subscribe to the viev of Uncle Silas that this man can not be his former patient. He is cer tainly not a fat, lethargic, littl' creature over fifty years of age. H is fairly tall, brisk. and he canno be a day over thirty-fve, if st much. If you will leave the matte to me I will undertake to clip tli gentIemans claws"
 You will set Wilmot on to him :?
 Tn a case of this kind, father even to you I had better not b more specific. If. ater, yor have ( deny knowledge yU1r denial vii come more naturally if 1t is genu inc"
 Adela, as sly little miss as eve chivied men, prepared for the fra by sallyine forth in her smartes low cut blouse and most beWitchin hat. Her walk took her past th Il inn. and the only mistake she rad was that when Lord Bulpeter CT took her she rather overdi. he start of astonishment.
 You nearly made me jump ou of my skim" she exclaimed,
 That would have been rough 0 your skin" was the gallant repl, If my eyes do not deceive me see convenient hayrack in yonde meadow. Come, let us seek it friendly shelter for our conference
