Jones, asking him to be kind enough to secure, if possible, the statements of any additional witnesses who might have been present on this occasion, and he sent me, in response to this request, the following affidavit, signed by five of the witnesses who were present at the time: California Psychical Research Society, San Francisco, Calif., Nov. 3, 1920. Dr. Hereward Carrington. 504 West 111th St.
And then the mother of Lucien Wallace would obtrude herself, and an almost equally good case might be made against her. There were times, of course, when I was disposed to throw all those suspicions aside, and fix definitely on the unknown, whoever that might be. I had my greatest disappointment when it came to tracing Nina Carrington. The woman had gone without leaving a trace.
"Therefore," continued Carrington, without seeming to observe the gesture, "I prefer to adopt the latter course, and further your interests in securing my own. I suppose you can at least understand and credit such very plain motives, so very plainly expressed, Miss Brewer?" "Yes," she said, "that may be true; it does not seem unlikely; we shall see." "You certainly shall.
Each day since Carrington came seemed to have aged his face and changed it for the worse: a haggard, ugly, malicious face it seemed to his visitor looking hard at it to-night.

'We'll have to leave this chap behind. We'll all be shot as full of holes as a sieve if we try to carry him. 'Rats, Carrington! retorted Roy Horan. 'Go home without our prisoner? Never! Besides, the Turks won't shoot their own officer. Come on, Dave, he said, and before Ken could say another word the two were off as hard as they could go, carrying their heavy burden.
