person in, would you? Still.
there you are. You never know,
as they say"
II reckon it was a blarsted
shame, though" said Miles. ITO
go and cut her throat like that.
She'd never done anyone any
harm"
"Ah," said Fellowes. "but when
they gets in a mess over money
they'll do anything. How much
was it he'd had off of 'er? Six
thousand quid, wasn't it? And
nothing to show for it. He had
to do something to keep her
quiet"
II dare say, but that's no
reason to go on like e did," OBJ
served Enid. "And then shooting
the doctor as well. No one can't
say he didn't deserve all he got.
What was it that lawyer called
him? A 'homicidal opportunist',
wasn't it? He certainly took his
opportunity all right."v
"That's what made it so hard
to get him." I ventured to OBJ
serve. I have learned not to give
my opinion too freely of late.
Eyes. And what I say now"
said Enid, lis what I've said all
along-it was really clever Of
Sergeant Beef to have spotted
him. Really clever, it was"
"Hear, hearw said FellOWes.
The sergeant sucked his mus
tache. "Oh, 7 don't know" he
said, there was nothink in it. I
just went a'ead and carried out
ordin'ry instructions. 'Ad a look
at the bloodstains, and the rest
followed. That's where it came
in. T told those gentlemen 90
came down to investigate right
from the start that it was too
simple a case for them"
Unfortunately, sergeant, they
have been told that so many times
by the police that they couldn't
be expected to believe you"
well, but it was. What was
there to it? Them inkstains, and
then the stains on Williams
shirt, and that bit of pillow case
wot ed been burning. That's all
it was, and the rest came on top
of it as easy as wink. 1t wasn't
the case for them at all. I mean,
wot they want is something COM
plicated. This was just a police
businessmen even worth bring
ing Scotland Yard down. There's
things of this sort 'appening
every day. And all you ave to
do is carry out the ordin'ry in
structions, take your notes, and
there you are. Only I wish to
gawd I could make up a story
like they can. Genius I call that.
Well, wot about another game OF
darts ?"

CHAPTER so

WHEN Sergeant Beef finished
at last, Mgr. Smith got. up to
leave us. He bore no grudge
against the sergeant. and like the
good sportsman he was enjoyed
being wrong at last. "You see,"
he explained, "by the very nature
of things it has never been posi-
BILE for me to be mistaken before.
And while there is error in a man,
a man may be in error"
He beamed round on us and
picked up his parasol.
Where are you off to-" I
asked.
1T must go to the vicarage," he
said, and scuttled out. We heard
that it was several hours before
he returned from the gloomy
vicarage, but what had passed in
that time it was not our business
to inquire.
When he had left the room I
was seized by yet another doubt.
but, sergeant" I said, there is
one matter which you haven't ex-
planned. And now I come to
think of it, it is a serious one.
What about the vicar? You can
not account for all his movements
so simply. They were really most
peculiar. First of all his ques-
tions to me. Then all that time
when he said he was out in the
orchard, then his being by the
side of the corpse so soon after
the murder, and finally his saying
that he had sinned. What does it
all mean? Was he really mad?"
Mad? No" said Sergeant
Beef. "'E isn't mad. That was
just is way of trying to get out
of it-defend 'imself, like"
Defend himself? Then he did
have something to do with the
murder?"
mo. Not that. But 'aven't
you really guessed, sir, what it
was e was ashamed of? It's as
pain cso Tic nOSC Va yOOA low
II can't say have-unless 1t
was this interfering puritanism of
his."-
mo, not that. Though it's all
part of it, You see the kind Of
man he was? Always seeing
something wrong when there was
nothing to see. Well, you know
what goes with that, don't you?
A nasty mind, that's what! No
wonder e was ashamed of 'imself.
When he left here that night,
where did he go? Out in the
orchard, pacing up and down :?
Not e! e knew Mrs. Thurston
would be going to bed in a min
ute, and p'raps didn't trouble to
draw the blinds. And out e goes
in the garden to see whether e
could see anything e shouldn't.
Henderson daily dispatch., 1938-03-12

| That's how e came to ear the
screams, and that's why he was
guilty afterwards"
'Tn fact" drawled Lord Simon,
'as Monsignor Smith would say
if he were here, he was not only
q Nosey Parker, but a Peeping
Tom"
The public bar of the Red Lion
was brightly lit, and the beer
glowed happily in glass tankards.
Enid, behind the bar, watched
placidly, while Sergeant Beef and
I attempted with zeal to win a
game of darts against Fellowes
and Miles.
"Police versus criminals, you
might call it," Enid had observed
when we started, with pointed
reference to my efforts of some
months ago to assist investiga-
ton of the Thurston mystery
and not without recollection of
