Watson of the Yard had expected him to get re- oults, and the lust thing he wanteS was to let his old friend down. But there it was; he had paid his visit, made a thorough search, and nothing more could be done in that direction. Perhaps the visit at the Inn would yield a better result, but he was cer- tain, in spite of his recent non-success, that the focal point of the mystery was still to be found at "The Whit* House." The arrival of the car at the Inn caused Mrs. Hamble to shake with ex- citement. This important-looking gen- tleman in uniform was a very differ- ent matter to poor plodding George Johnson, whose stupidity gave her in- creasing anger every tim? she thought about it. "Mrs. Hamble?" asked the Inspe; tor. "That's me, sir. You called abou' tbe affair last night, I s'pose? I tolc George Johnson to get on the tele- phone to you." Inspector I^aidley allowed a slight smile t pass over his grim face. "George Johnson! Who on Mirth i fjorge <>Jhnson?" "Why, Vs the village '->>pper 1 mean policeman. I told 'im particular to gu straight back to the Station and get on the telephone to you." "My instructions came from land Yc.rd, Mrs. Hamole." "Scotland Yard!" She vpoke the words in impressed awe. "Yes. Now, I want to get the full story from you. Please tell me every- . thing that happt-ned." By this time they wen- in UK- lami lady's private sitting- room, and Mr-. Hamble, still all of a fluster, was .lust ii>lf the back of a chair with her apron. "That's the most comfortable one," nhe remarked, seating herself oppo- site. "Well, it as likw this: the ^oung gentleman ho said 'i* name wat Pad den" "Padden? I understood ; t was Philip Crane." "I don't know anything about that. He tpld me 'is name was Padtten, and that 'e was recommended to Mnndling by a man called Smith."

"There, there, child; don't take on so. We both want to help you, don't we, Inspector?" "I have already told Miss Ferguson so." "Yoa are very kind," returned the girl. "But what do you mean about my friend's disappearance? Mrs. Hamble was telling me that he has n.crely gone ou 1 ; for a walk, and Jiat he's certain to come back here."
