"Where is Mr. Cawdor?" he asked, sharply. "The gentleman with the grey moustache left a few seconds ago," one of the men at the door said. Dory was very pale. "Gentlemen," he said, "I have to offer you my apologies. I have apparently been deceived by some false information. The charge is withdrawn." He turned on his heel and left the room. The two policemen followed him.
The detective did look round, and pretty thoroughly. As soon as he was sure that there was no one concealed upon the premises, he drank his whisky and soda and went. "I'll look in again to see Cawdor," he remarked "to-morrow, perhaps, or the next day." "I'll let him know if I see him about," Peter Ruff declared. "Sorry the lift's stopped. Three steps to the left and straight on. Good-night!"
But Fordun says the murder was perpetrated near Elgin; and others say at Cawdor Castle.
"Glamis hath murdered sleep, and therefore Cawdor shall sleep no more, Macbeth shall sleep no more." With such horrible imaginations Macbeth returned to his listening wife, who began to think he had failed of his purpose and that the deed was somehow frustrated.
I have no doubt your cousin is a worthy man and as prosperous a gentleman as the Thane of Cawdor in his prosperous days but probably if he and I came together we shouldn't have a word to say to each other. Clara almost hated Captain Aylmer for speaking as he did, and yet she knew that it was true.
Cawdor curled his lip, and said that you might have the most artistic tastes, but that you were a man whom no pure-minded girl should be allowed to know, and whom no chaste woman should sit in the same room with. I reminded him that I was a friend of yours, and asked him what he meant. He told me. He told me right out before everybody. It was horrible!
Miss Brown arrived early the following morning, and was disposed to be inquisitive. "I should like to know," she said, "exactly what has become of Mr. Vincent Cawdor." Peter Ruff took her upstairs. There was a little mound of ashes in the grate. She nodded. "I imagined that," she said. "But why did you send me out to watch yourself?"
They then turned into air and vanished; by which the generals knew them to be the weird sisters, or witches. While they stood pondering on the strangeness of this adventure there arrived certain messengers from the king, who were empowered by him to confer upon Macbeth the dignity of Thane of Cawdor.
'Glamis hath murdered sleep, and therefore Cawdor shall sleep no more. Macbeth shall sleep no more. With such horrible imaginations Macbeth returned to his listening wife, who began to think he had failed of his purpose, and that the deed was somehow frustrated.
