‘Thanks. 1 was in the dance-room‘; when Rolllter and Fernandez and the Pachmann woman returned from the inquest feeling, as you can imagine, jolly fed up. I had been in charge of the whole place all the‘ afternoon and when the bunch 10-. turned they went at once to Fer-i narldez’ office. The whole thing was unmistakable; they're acting te-i gether. “The office opens on to~a smalll terrace and I strolled round there-I I'm not in the habit of eavesdrop-I ping but this evening what 1 did. I_ did deliberately. Fernandez and: Rtolliter were both very angry and: their voices came out on to the] terrace through a window whivch_ was slightly open. Fernandez has! got something belonging to Mrsft iewln which Ralliter wants. At? least Rolllter is certain that. he's’ -got it. Fernandez denies it. Sadie Pachmann was doling her best to pacify the two men. I heard Ibolll- . ter say quite clearly: ‘The will waai g

in her jewel case." It's a will a - c t t B d parently that is missing. Rollltgr e thinks Fernandez has it and judg- -——- ing from his vehement denials Ii should think that he has." i Dolilmore nodded. “That's an-Z other piece filled into the jig-saw"; he said. “I'm very much obliged‘ m‘ game wmmct l" Will-BYE to you, Rpylnyf‘ dml was lost. not because a rinesse "I slipped away and they didn't Fem’ “Dim m“ because m4? d9‘ know that I had overheard. r tolllml" 8°" "l1 a "lime 1111i!" bi’ somehow that the whole matter mklng the ﬁnesse-

was important. Mrs. Lewln's name

was not mentioned, but references, “um deakr‘

to the old woman were apparently. Nemmr "a vulnembh’ to her. I'd had enough and went "Detalrs and packed my bags and Just sheer-ed off. I'd got a calami- tous two-seater there—I paid ten quid for it-and I went out by the‘ side door and came back to town." l “Fernandez will probably report‘ your disappearance to the police," Dolilmore said with a smile: "He has a sense of humour, that gentle- manl"

"I suppose I should have report- ed my intention to them? But there was only one bobby there and he seemed half asleep."

“Ducros will be back there in the morning. Where are you staying?" "With my brother in Cllaring Court. Unlike me, he's a very pros- perous person."

“Was Miss Sterining there?’

“I didn't see her after she came in with you. You disappeared pret- ly quickly. too. You've got some wonderful publicity in the paper tonight, I see."

“Rather-confound them!"

"Well. I'll toddle along, Dolly. I've got a part in the new ploy at the Coronet Theatre. by the way—my brother fixed it for me. Rehearsals start on Monday so I shouldn't have been there nrtch longer in any case."

The following morning Dolilmore called at Rollitefs office lrl Goweritl Street. Solicitors establishments have an unenviable reputation of being stuffy and uncomfortable, but R.olliter’s ideas. in many respects. were not in harmony with the traditions of his profession. The office itself was g ﬂat in a very modern and efficient building. It was one of those spotlessly clean.‘ chromium-plated places one as- sociates with share-pushers and

South could consider himself lucky that his opening bid was held open. However. i-n view of the outcome. perhaps he wasn't so lucky. at that!

In accord wlvtll the regulations of his department, Dol- ilmore was accompanied by a fel- low official — Detective Sergeant Murrayfield. The w-lndow marked "miqulries" was opened by a parox- ide blonde who would have been more at home in the atmosphere of a saloon bar than a solicitor‘: office. Her fingernails were vermil- ion. her attitude confident to the point of boldness.

"Good morning. I want to Mr. Rolllter."

"Then I'm afrsld you will be dis- appointed," the blonde said with s, smile as she looked Dolilmore up and down. "He's not in. What name?"

"Dolilmore."

“Dolly More?" she repeated ivn surprise.

"No. Inspector Dolilmore. of scot- lanrl Yard." Dolilmore said sharp- ly. He disliked all peroxide hlondes and this one more than most. “He's not In, anyway. He's down in the country on the case in the paper. Olll I remember. You're in the case too."
