/ The high whinnying voice died
away Neville slumped down and be-
gan to cry quietly.
''Oh. God" said Mary Adm
She was white TO the lips.
Battle said gently. In low voice:
I'm sorry, but I had TO push him
over the edge. There was pre-
ciolB little evidence. you know"
Neville was still whimpering. His
voice was like a child's.

II knew you were dead scared

got that colorless, reserved way
people have who are holding some
very strong emotion In check. II
might have been love or hate. but
actually II was fear, wasn't IT."
She nodded.
II began to be afraid OF Neville
soon after we were married. But
the awful thing Is, you see, that I
didn't know why. began to think
that was mad"
1T wasn't you," said Battle.
Neville seemed to me when 1

Interesting" said Battle. HE
played the part Of the good sports
man, you know. That's why he
could keep his temper so well at
tennis. His role as a good sports
man was more important to him
than winning matches. But 1t put
a strain upon him, Of course: play
ing a part always does. He got
worse underneath"

with shudder. Always under

Perhaps he did" said Battle.
Audrey turned a startled face to
him.

brood over 1t, though. Mrs. Strange.

MacWHIRTER told OF his res
cue from the clii the preceding
January and OF his wish to revisit
the scene. He went on:

thoughts. II must have been, sup
pose, In the neighborhood Of IL
o'clock. I looked across at that
house on the point-Gull's Point,
as know It now to be-"
He paused and then went on
There was a rope hanging from
a window OF that house into the
sea. saw a man climbing up that
rope :"
Just a moment elapsed before
they took It in Mary Adm cried
out:
Then II was an outsider after
all? II was nothing to do with any
Of US. II was an ordinary burglar"
mot quite 50 fast" said Battle.
1T was someone who came from
the other side Of the river, yes,
since he swan across. But some
one In the house had to have the
rope ready for him, therefore some
one inside must have been con-
cerned."
He went on slowly.
And we know Of someone who
was on the other side OF the river
that night-someone who WASH t

past IL and who might have been
swimming over and back. Someone
who might have had a friend on

He added: Eth. Mr.. Latimer7-

you didn't" said Battle. But
you did want to hang the woman
who left you for another man.
You're bit unhinged mentally, you
know. Have been ever since you
were a child. I've looked up that old
bow and arrow case, by the way.
Anyone who does you an injury has
to be punished-and death doesn't
seem to you an excessive penalty
for them to pay. Death by Itself
wasn't enough for Audrey-your
Audrey whom you loved-oh. yes,
you loved her all right before your
love turned to hate. You had TO
think Of some special kind Of death,
some long -drawn-out specialized
death. And when you'd thought Of
II, the fact that II entailed the kill
ing of a woman who had been
something like a mother to you
didn't worry you in the least :"
Neville said, and his voice was
quite gentle:
-All lies! An lies! And I'm not
mad. I'm not mad"
Battle said contemptuously:
"F1icked you on the raw, didn't
she, when she went of and left you
for another man? Hurt your van
ity! To think she should walk out
on you. You salved your pride by
pretending to the world at large
that you'd left her and you mar
RED another girl who was in love
with you Just to bolster up that be-
lief. But all the time you planned
what you'd do to Audrey. You
couldn't think Of anything worse
than thls--to get her hanged. A
fine idea-pity you hadn't the
brains to carry II out better!"
Nevile's tweed-coated shoulders
moved. a queer. wriggling move
ment.
Battle went on:
"Childish--all that niblick stun
Those crude trails pointing to you!
Audrey must have known what you
were after! She must have laughed
up her sleeve! Thinking didn't
suspect you! You murderers are
funny little fellows! So puffed up.

and resourceful and really being
quite pitifully childish. :"
II was a strange queer scream
that came from Neville.
