"Marling!"
"Well-think of Marling a minute.
Hated Pell. Why? Suspected HIM.
Think of Marling in the cloister Sunday
night. The Monday afternoon-you
couldn't miss Markings face when Pell
went for him. 1t was Marling who was
going to see the ghost, If you remember.
If Pell had taken the book, and Marling
knew it. suppose the book contained the
instructions for conjuring up the ghost,
Grenofen?"
II can't see how a book in Newplace
library could have anything to do with
coniuring a ghost out of convict pris-
on" said I.
Did it every occur to you that Pell
might have been shot by accident?"
Somerfield put the question almost
casually. 1t made me SIT up.
You mean-why, Somerfield. you
can only mean one thing! That"
THAT the shot was meant for some
body else. In fact, it's perfectly clear,
Grenofen. Did you look through the
keyhole? A man who was going to fire
through the keyhole couldn't possibly
have aimed at Pell, who wasn't in the

Woodcot lane, LaXton's queer conduct
LaXton's knowledge that some fellow
would be proving about Newplace that

with something that was likely to hap

1--WE been wondering" Somerfield
unused. whether LaXton had any ink
ling of a possible shooting match and
was trying to stop it. BY the way,
Grenofen, LaXton's not come out as a
policeman yet Why? He's still running
the antiquarian stunt"
SIS he? Seen him lately?" asked.
YES" said Somerfield. This after
noon I met him coming away from
Newplace-in a dirty mess, earth all
over his boots and clothes. Just taking
leave of Marling and the cub. Said he'd
been exploring with them. He walked
along with me as far as the Lord Mel
son. Fact is, Grenofen, that's what
made me come on to see you"
Did he say anything about me
them" asked.
Eyes. Asked If you were home from
Hallam Bay. Whether I'd met your
cousin. Whether you We're specially
friendly with Fotherbury. He's got his
eye on you, Grenofen. But that wasn't
the most remarkable thing.
He harked back to what happened
in the library the afternoon Pell was
killed. Then he asked me whether I
saw you or anybody else take a book out
of the shelves that afternoon.
HE said Fotherbury had missed
book. 1t was in the library Friday.
Tuesday. it couldn't be found. And Mr..
Fotherbury wanted it badly"
What book?" asked.
"An old illuminated book. with
manuscript history of the abbey. Lax
ton said he wouldn't be surprised if it
was what had put Fotherbury on to his
excavations"
Nobody touched book that day, so
far as l remember"
II didn't see anybody touch book,
But it's not the loss that interests me
its the fact that Laxton's so curious
about it."
Yes, that's rather queer" I ad-
mitted.

whether Pell was in the library on Fri

CHAPTER XIV.
THROUGH THE KEYHOLE.

|
| - OMERFIELD'S discovery that
LaXton was a detective was nc
! great surprise to me.
That's been worrying me ever
since he came" l told Somer-
field although my suspicious of the
mans real profession were more recent
Then the people at the British Mu-
scum" Somerf1eld asked "how-?"
oh. that's quite easy. Laxton must
have been on the watch for news of
Pell. AS soon as Pells name appeared
il the Times that day, when it said
was taking a drawing of the new fresco
to the museum, Laxton or his superiors
must have fixed up the trap with the
he took me down to the cloisters, po-
liceman was written all over him."
"Of course he was after Pell.'
1T looked like that. But why?"
"At least three people could tell us
that, Grenofen."
Eyes, I know" said I. "But won't
ask Veronica. I don't think 'twould be
fair to ask Mrs. Seabroke. And il 1
asked old Seabroke-well, you can easily
guess"
Somerfield nodded. "It's awkward"
to be done. If the professor gets wise
to what happened last night, he won't
have any mighty computations about
asking. Will he. now? Spiriting away
the man he was after for the murder
of Pell! Have you realized it?"
My perception of reality was betogged
by Veronica.
Somerfield, looking on from outside,
was able to precipitate the confusion
a little. He had an analytical mind. All
these disconnections, he said, had to be
linked up somehow, and the only link
he could see was Laxton.
Old Fotherbury's excavations had
brought Pell down to Blackwater. Then,
there was a getaway by a convict. The
convict arrived at Blackwater, and on
his heelS-Laxton.
Pell was murdered in the act of re-
vealing a ghost and when we look for
the ghost we find-Laxton.
Something in the background, ;" said
Somerfield, between the Seabrokes,
Pell and the convict. Something that
even Iaxton can't see, for he doesn't
seem to have brought the Seabrokes
into the picture yet. Therefore, what
ever his knowledge, it begins later than
the Seabrokes;"
'No doubt about it," said I. "Lax-
ton begins with some connection be-
tween Pell and the convict. The Sea-
brokes begin much further back. You
remember that, Immediately before
Iaxton came to Blackwater, he'd been
in Devonshire. You remember the I'M
explained absence Of Veronica from
London that Saturday and Pell's alb
sence at the same time. You read that

LAWYERS DEATH
BARES MURDER DEN
Apartment of inventors, Held
in Staying, Revealed as
Trap to Intruders.

The Brooklyn apartment Of Pietro
and Leonardo Danna. italian inventors,
who were arrested Wednesday for the
murder in his Park Row ONCE Of Aaron
L. Applebaum, New York patent attor-
ney, formerly connected with the Patent
once here, was revealed yesterday as a
death trap to any one who sought TO IN
wade it, according to accounts reaching
here.
Diabolical arrangements of triggers
and cartridges, designed to explode by
the mere turning of @ key in q lock
or the opening OF a shutter, ana TUBES
of acid placed so that their contents
would SQUIRT on any one who trod on
them, were only discovered after two
detectives, sent to search the apart
ment, had suffered severe injuries from
splintered glass and shattered WOOD
when attempting to gain entry.
Detectives Near Death.
That Detectives John Ross and Joseph
Ryan came within half an men OF
death is not an exaggeration. Had the
38-cabiber cartridge inserted in bored
hole in the woodwork of the door been
placed a little deeper the bullet would
have penetrated the panel. instead, IL
merely shattered 1t.
Upon examination 1t was found that
about 6 inches below the lock was fast
ened a steel hammer attached to a
strong spring, held back by clip. To
the cIip was tied a light steel wire with
a loop, hooked around the knob OF the
spring lock on the inner side OF the
door, in which, just below the knob
the cartridge was inserted.
When Ross turned the knob by twist
ing the key in the lock, he pulled on
the wire, released the hammer and 1t
exploded the cartridge. Similar ar
rangements were found on each door
and window of the apartment.
Acid Traps In Floor.
The acid traps were set in holes cut
in the floor. It was disclosed later that
