Whenever I stirred she stopped her chattel~ ing and leaned toward me, and watched me like a cat over a mouse- hole. I wondered how I could have considered her an agreeable travel- ling companion. I thought I would have preferred to be locked in with a lunatic. I don’t like to think how she would have acted if I had made again, I did not open it, and I reached Marseilles alive.

I felt among the things at the top of it, but failed to touch the cigarâ€"case. I shoved my hand in deeper, and stirred the things about, but still I did not reach it. A cold wave swept down my spine, and a’sort of emptiness came to the pit of my stomach. Then I turned red-hot, and the sweat sprung out all over me. I wet my lips with my tongue, and said to myself, ‘Don’t be an ass. Pull yourself together, ull yourself together. Take the things out, one at a time. It’s there, of course it’s there. Don’t be ~ GORYBIE-H'E ? “So I put a brake on my nerves and began very carefully to pick out the things one by one, but after another second I could not stand it, and I rushed across the room and threw out everything on the bed. But the diamonds were not among them. I pulled the things about and tore them open and shuffled and rearranged and sorted them, but it was no use. The cigar-case was gone. I threw everything in the dress- ing-case out on the floor, although I knew it was useless to look for it there. I knew that I had put it in the bag. I sat down and tried to think. I remembered I had put it in the satchel at Paris just as that woman had entered the compartment, and I had been'aione with her ever since, so it was she who had robbed me. But how? It had never left my shoulder. And then I remembered that it hadâ€"that I had taken it ofi when I had changed my coat and for the few moments that I was searching for Natalie.
