/ couldn't speak; Peter. however,
voiced my thought:
THAT goes with the Theory that
the attack was made by some one In
the rear of the new-book alcove."
"Yes; II is further sustained by the
fact that In the dust on that fourth
shelf, between the front and rear
ranks of books, We found fresh
streakS, such as would be made by
fingers thrust in from the rear. And
Professor Harrington says be made
them"
"He admits he was there!' gasped.
"Candi6ly; says he reached into that
shelf from the rear to search for
books. Yet he absolutely denies hav-
ing seen Mr.. Grosvenor then or at any
other time that morning, or having
any knowledge whatever of the
spring-lancet."
After long silence, Mr.. Almy

who's the witness?" demanded Pc

'"That'll come out. too. It won't be
long to wait"
"Wait I" echoed Peter, in tone of
frenzy. "Wait what for? To
tell that girl whose grandfather and
cousin were thieves and liars that her
uncle is a murderer? You take II
lying down, seems to mel Isn't there
anything a man can do"
Mr.. Almy looked him up and down
in rather a kindly manner. He an
swered quietly:
There might be. Do you want to
come along and find out?"
And so, as we reached Fourteenth
street, with Washington and Lafayette
exchanging patriotic raptures across
sea of parked taxicabs in spirit of
rainbow hope strangely at variance
with that afternoon of gloom, the two
men disappeared into the subway.
leaving me to pursue my solitary way
back to Darrow's, thinking of how.
fast Monday, Professor Harrington
had looked sharply down the aisle

the yellow note from the basket, and

the aisle on fuckers heels. and not

"How did Mr.. Grosvenor come to
show this paper?"
"He picked 1t up Of the floor," said
fuckers voice. "The young lady with
the yellow hair had laid 1t down on
the table, on some books she had
brought the professor. 1t fell off when
she swished round to go back up the
aisle. 1t flew over to the edge of that
alcove, right near where you're stand

Sand then Mr.. Grosvenor picked it
up?"
"Yes, sir. He had been feeling In
his pockets could see him well be-
cause the light In that alcove was on,
and was in this shadow here-and as
he kept feeling, he happened to turn,
and caught sight of the paper which
had been lying on the floor a little
while then. He grabbed 1t, and took
it in his left hand, and took that little
brass box in his right, and spread the
paper over the box, and pressed some
thing. Then there was a click-the
first"
"That was at ten-forty," said Mr..
Almy. "Then what. Tucker?

"Why didn't Tucker give any
alarmr"
"He was scared stiff. You see, while
there's no great harm In him, he had
just got out of the city prison on a
disorderly conduct charge. He was
hunting his first job since, and natu-
