Within another hour I had learned that Mr. La Cour had left Winton by the evening train the day before. He had appeared on the station platâ€" form, as usual, just as the train was coming in, and Hutton had noticed nothing unusual in bis appearance. While I was puzzled as to where he had hidden himself between the time of the tragedy and the evening hour when Mr. McClure‘s agitation became evident, my calmer reason of the morning strengthened my conâ€" viction that it was the man known to the Arms family as La Cour who had been the cause of Mr. McClure‘s distress and of his driveyafter nightâ€" fall in the covered buggy.
