I stooped over it and pointed. There, driven right through the thick steel breastplate, was the 'waeful dagger. "Good God!" said young Jarnock again. "Good God! It's the dagger! The thing's been stabbed, same as Bellett!" "Yes," I replied, and saw him glance swiftly toward the entrance of the Chapel. But I will do him the justice to say that he never budged an inch.
