cidedly! -but as far as I was concern-
ed, easy 'enough to get on with, so
long as you were quick to anticipate
her wishes and to do just what she
wanted without fuss or question.
I found out all this within my first.
fortnight;•at Renardsmere House. And
during that fortnight I heard nothing
of the Portsmouth affair. I . never
saw anything in the newspapers about
h ugh I' took the trouble -to send
it,tog
to Portsmouth for copies'of the. local
papers. Of course I -heard, nothing
about either Holliment or'Quarter-
vayne. And:in Renardsmere nobody
=not even the' sapient policeman—
rd anythingor discovered ,'any-
thing about the wrecked car. The vill-
age carpenter, remarking that it was a
shame to see good stuff lying about,
removed all of the wreckage that was
worth removing to one of his sheds—
if nobody ever turned, up to claim it,
he said, he'd find some use for it him-
self. My own belief was that he
would. have'been quite'safe in using
whatever he liked just then—Holli-
ment in :throwing away that car )tad
'thrown a cover over the whole epi-
sode that was not meant to be lifted.
Ivry opinion was that he had cleared
out, and that 1''should never hear of
him and his strange doing again.
But at the end of that fortnight the
curtain -went 'iip once more—on Act
Two.
The landlord, of the Renardsmere
Arms was one ' Holroyd -Ben . Hol-
d a Yorkshireman, who had. drift-
ed
ed South as groom, ' or coachrszan in
his younger days, •saved money iii his
various situations,; and had! eventually,
onie years' service with Sir
after s .
William Renardsmere, changed his
mode .of life and. taken over the licen-
ce of the village inn. ' He was a
shrewd, sharp fellow, ably assisted in
his business by his wife,' who had
been cook at one of the big houses in
the neighbourhood; in addition to his
g
trade as licensed victualler he carried
on another in hay, straw, and horse -
corn. Lady Renardsmere had exten-
sive dealings with hurt in these things
and it was part of my job to go down
and pay his weekly bill every - Satur-
day morning. And on the third Sat-
urday after my settling down at Ren-
arclsmere House, being at the inn for
this purpose, Holroyd, when I lad'
squared his book, gave me a glance
which seemed to suggest privacy and
mystery.
Mr. Cranage!" he said, bending ov-
er his liar counter-, "There's a word
or two :l wanted to say to you—be-
twecn ourselves, like."
"Yes?" I responded. "What, .now?"
There was tio one but ourselves in
the bar' -parlour, the morning' being
still early, but he lowered the tone, of
his voice almost to a whisper, at the

"He ,was certainly about as
frightened as a man. can be,"
"Lest the •Chinaman whose, face you
saw at the window should get in?"
"1 suppose so, But then, he , was-
frightened;; long before that, He be-
came mprtally frightened as soon as !.

"Well, you were with him a fair lot,
Mr. Cranage! Didn't he drop any-
thing that gave you an idea as. to the
causes of his fright?"
"No! -nothing whatever. 1 made
out—got a notion you know—that for
some reason or other the Chinaman
who had looked in at the window
wanted,: to get at hini and 1 suppose
at Quartervayne, ` But he didn't tell
me why."
'The two detectives , exchanged a
whisper: or two; :then Jifferdene spoke
to Mr. Shen. And Mr. Shen turned

"You arerquite sure that the face.
