Nonsense said Evelyn again.
You have not yet examined the
facts. tha-er-data. Jim Field,
though a year older than the LaYdons,
was at school and college with them,
and n most constant visitor at Lay
don Manor. He was in the same
squadron in the Flying Corps and was
one of the three who were missing on
the 18th of November. 1916. The man

Cotty was really enjoying himself a
good deal---"returned to the Upton

amined the register with this result
he found that on December Z. 1914. q
marriage had taken place there be-
tween Pearl Harriet May Paliiser and
James Calthrop Field. As Sophy says,
that is surely 4 remarkable piece of
evidence"
Evelyn had the sensation of being
in a very thick fog. 1t is no use hit
ting out at fog, and it is no use to
try and run away. What on earth
was Cotty driving at? And what on
earth did he think he was proving
with his detective, and his registry
office, and all this rigmarole about
poor Jim Field having married Pearl
Palliser?
Later on Cotty conlided to Sophy
that he did not consider Evelyn Lay
don at all an intelligent youn. woman:
she looked at me blankly. and
seemed incapable of following what
really considered was very lucid

neither Jack Layton nor Jim Layton,
