I have to take Maria down to dinner; to sit by the piano and listen to her songs in all languages. Do you know Maria can sing Hungarian and Polish, besides your common German, Spanish, and Italian? Those I have at our other agents', Baynes and Jolly's Baynes's that is in the Regent's Park, where the girls are prettier and just as civil to me as at Aunt Hobson's."
Inspector Baynes, who, with his usual astuteness, had minimized the incident before me, had really recognized its importance and had left a trap into which the creature walked. Any other point, Watson?" "The torn bird, the pail of blood, the charred bones, all the mystery of that weird kitchen?" Holmes smiled as he turned up an entry in his note-book.
"I see that I'm the mouse an' you're the cat," he resumed, as that curious laugh rattled in his throat. "Look a' here, Baynes, I'll tell ye what I'll do. I'll cancel the hull mortgage." Again Uncle Peabody rose from his chair with a look in his face which I have never forgotten. How his voice rang out!
Hudson opened the door to usher in two robust and official-looking individuals, one of whom was well known to us as Inspector Gregson of Scotland Yard, an energetic, gallant, and, within his limitations, a capable officer. He shook hands with Holmes and introduced his comrade as Inspector Baynes, of the Surrey Constabulary. "We are hunting together, Mr.

The Englishman slid to the bottom of the canoe as a bullet whizzed above him. Malbihn, sore hit, took longer in aiming, nor was his aim as sure as formerly. With difficulty Baynes turned himself over on his belly and grasping his revolver in his right hand drew himself up until he could look over the edge of the canoe. Malbihn saw him instantly and fired; but Baynes did not flinch or duck.
Aunt Deel and Uncle Peabody were coming in from the pasture lot with sacks of butternuts on a wheelbarrow. My uncle clapped his hands and waved his handkerchief and shouted "Hooray!" Aunt Deel shook hands with Mr. Dunkelberg and then came to me and said: "Wal, Bart Baynes! I never was so glad to see anybody in all the days o' my life ayes! We been lookin' up the road for an hour ayes!
"I'm an Englishman by the name of Baynes; but who the devil are you?" asked the Hon. Morison. "They call me The Killer," replied Korak, giving the English translation of the name that Akut had given him. And then after a pause during which the Hon.
