He has been aceused‘in our hearing of a most serious crime, and I insist that you remain until you have heard me clearhis character.” “ , ' ‘ ' ‘ “Y on !” cried the Baronet. ‘ ~ ' “Yes,” answered the young 'man briskly. “I’would have spoken sooner,” he explained, “but that I thought this gentleman”â€"he in- clined his head toward the Queen’s Messengerâ€"“was about to con- tribute some facts of which I was ignorant. He, however, has told us "-vwâ€"v v _ nothing, and so I will take up the tale at the point where Lieutenant Sears laid it down and give you those details of which Lieutenant Sears is ignorant. It seems strange to you that I should be able to add the sequel to this story. But the coincidence is easily explained. ram the junior member of the law firm of Chudleigh Chudleigh. We have been solicitors for the Chetneys for the last two hundred years. Noth- ing, no matter how unimportant, which concerns Lord Edam and his two sons is unknown to us, and naturally we are acquainted with every detail of the terrible catastrophe of last night.” The Baronet, bewildered but eager, sank back into his chair. “Will you be long, sir ?” he demanded. ' “I shall endeavor to be brief,” said the young solicitor; “and,” he added, in a tone which gave his words almost the weight of a,threat, “I promise to be interesting.” 0 - . r .n .1 no A Jmn__ (KT 2...} :lh ‘U.LAI\JV 3V vv -â€"â€"-â€"v â€"â€"777 , 1" c “There is no need to promise that,” said Sir Andrew, “I find it much too interesting as it is.” He glanced ruefully at the clock and turned his eyes quickly from it. _- - . . :nL-“l’ Uu‘llku AALU v v v-l .le-vvâ€"J _- , “Tell the driver of that hansom,” he called to the servant, “that I i . take him by the hour.” I - “For’the last three days,” began young Mr. Chudleigh, “as you i have probably read in the daily papers, the Marquis of Edam has been l at the point of death, and his physicians have never left his house. I Every hour he seemed to grow. weaker; but although his bodily strength is apparently leaving him forever, his mind has remained clear and active. Late yesterday evening word was received at our ofice that he wished my father to come at once to Chetney House and to bring with him certain papers. What these papers were is not essen- tial; I mention them only to explain how it was that last night I hap- pened to be at Lord Edam’s bedside. I accompanied my father to Chet- ney House, but at the time we reached there Lord 'Edam was sleeping, and his physicians refused to have him awakened. My father urged that he should be allowed to receive Lord Edam’s instructions concernâ€" ing the documents, but the physicians would not disturb him, and we all gathered in the library to wait until he should awake of his own accord. It was about one o’clock in the morning, while we were still there, that Inspector Lyle and the oficers from Scotland Yard came to arrest Lord Arthur on the charge of murdering his brother. You can imagine our dismay and distress. Like every one else, I had learned from the afternoon papers that Lord Chetney was not dead, but that he had returned to England, and on arriving at Chetney House I had been told that Lord Arthur had gone to the Bath Hotel to look for his brother and to inform him that if he wished to see their father alive he must come to him at once. Although it was now past one o’clock, Arthur had not returned. None of us knew where Madame Zichy lived, so we could not go to recover Lord Chetney’s body. We spent a most miserable night, hastening to the window whenever a cab came into the square, in the hope that it was Arthur returning, and endeav- oring to explain away the facts that pointed to him as the murderer. I am a friend of Arthur’s, I was with him at Harrow and at Oxford, and I refused to believe for an instant that he was capable of such a crime; but as a lawyer I could not help but see that the circumstantial evi- dence was‘stronglv against him. “Toward early morning Lord Edam awoke, and in so much hotter a state of health that he refused to make the changes in he papers ‘ which he had intended, declaring that he was no nearer death than ourselves. Under other circumstances, this happy change in him would have relieved us greatly, but none of us could. thinki‘of anything save the death of his elder son and of the charge which hung over Athur. I “As long as Inspector Lyle remained in the house my father‘ i decided that I, as one of the legal advisers of the family, should also ‘ I remain there. But there was little for either of new do. Arthur did i i not return, and nothing occurred-until late this morning, when Ilyle 1 ‘ received word that the Russian servant had been arrested. He at once- . drove to Scotland Yard to question him; (,Hecame back to us in an hour, and informed me that the servant had refused to tell anything of what had happened the night before, or of himself,-‘or of the Princess Zichy. He would not even give them the address of her house. i “ ‘He is in abject terror,’ Lyle said. ‘I assured him that he‘was not suspected of the crime, but he would tell me nothing.’ “There were no other developments until two o’clock this after-- noon, when word was brought to us that Arthur had been found, and. that he was lying in the accident ward of 'St."'George’s'H'ospithl. ' Lyle and I drove there together, and found him propped up in bed with his . head bound in a bandage. He had been brought to the haspital the night before by the driver of a hansom that had run over him in the fog. The cab-horse had kicked him on the head, and he had been car- ried in unconscious. There was nothing on him to tells-who he was, 5, it was not until he came to his senses this ifternobn that the h tel authorities had been able to send word to his people. Lyle at once informed him that he was under arrest, and with what he was charged; and though the inspector warned him to say nothing which-might he used against him, I, as his solicitor, instructed him to speak freely and town as all he knew of the occurrences of last night. ‘It was evident to any one that the fact of his brother's death was of much pester concern to him, than that he was accused of his murder.

My only reason for not doing so was because I thought he was still angry with me. -I shall return with you immediately, as soon as I have said good-by to the 'Prinoesa'lt is a final good-by. After to-night, I shall never see her again.’ “ ‘Do you mean that ’9" Arthur Cried. “ ‘Yes,’ Chetney answered. ‘When I returned to London I had no intention of seeking her again, and I am here only through a mistake.’ He then told. Arthur that‘he had separated from the Princess even before he went to Central Africa, and that, moreover, while at Cairo on his way south, he had learned certain facts concerning her life there during the previous season, which made it impossible for him to~ ever wish to see her again. Their separation was final and complete. ‘ “ ‘She deceived me cruelly,’ he said; ‘Ilcannot tell you how cruelly. During the two years when I was trying to obtain my father's consent to our marriage she was in love with a Russian diplomat. During all that time he was secretl/y visiting her here in London, and her trip to Cairo was only an excuse to meet him there.’ V'-- v “ ‘Yet you are here with her to-night,’ Arthur protested, ‘¢ few hours after ydnr return.’ - “ ‘That is easily explained,’ Chetney answered. ‘A's I finished din- ner to-nightxat the hotel, I received a note from her from this address. i In it she ' she had but just learned of my arrival, and begged me to come to at once. She wrote that she was in great and present trouble, dying of an incurable illness, and without friends or money. She begged me, for the sake of old times, to come to her assistance. During the last two years in the jungle all my former feeling for Zichy has utterly pmsed away, but no one could have dismissed the appeal she made in that letter. 80 I came here, and found her, as you have seen her, quite as beautiful as she ever was, in very good health, and, from the look of the house, in no need of money. ' a' garret, and she laughed, and said she had done so because she was afraid, unlem I thought she needed help, I would not try to see her. That was where we were when you arrived. And now,’ Chetney added, ‘I will say good-by to her, and you hsd'better return home. No, you can trust me, I shall follow you at once. She has no influence over me now, but I believe, in spite of the way she has used me, that she is, after her queer fashion, still fond of me, and when she learns that this good-by is final there my be a scene, and it is not fair to her that you should be here. So, go home at once, and tell the governor that I am following you in ten minutes! . “ ‘That,’ said Arthur, ‘is the way we parted. I never left him on more friendly tom I was happy to see him alive ngain,I was happy to think he had returned. in time to make 1m his quarrel with mv ‘h‘er, and I was happy that at last he was shut of‘thst woman.
