Without the slightest doubt in the world it was Lady Orstline's pearl necklace! I spent a very restless and disturbed night. I rose at six o'clock the following morning, and at ten o'clock I rang up 3771A Gerrard. My inquiry was answered almost at once by Mr. Parker himself. "Is that you, Walmsley?" "It is," I replied. "I have been waiting to ring you up since daylight! I want you to understand "
Then Eve at last glanced away, with a little shrug of the shoulders, and Mr. Joseph H. Parker gripped my hand. "Say, you're all right!" he pronounced. "You just ring up 3771A Gerrard to-morrow morning between ten and eleven." At ten o'clock the following morning my telephone bell rang and a visitor was announced.
I breakfasted at nine o'clock, after having read the announcement through again, trying to see whether there was any possible connection between it and my friends. Then I lit a pipe and sat down to wait until I could ring up 3771A Gerrard. About ten o'clock, however, my own telephone bell rang, and I was informed that a gentleman who desired to see me was waiting below.
"It only remains for me now to wish you good morning, and to assure you most regretfully that your name will be added to those whom Scotland Yard thinks it well to watch and that your movements from place to place will be noted." "I trust that Scotland Yard will benefit," I replied politely, and showed him out. At half past ten I rang up 3771A Gerrard.
