The notes were not finished, but ended abruptly in the middle of a sentence: "It is necessary to make it clea " Those were the last words the dead man had written.

The sight of this unfinished sheet kindled Barrant's imagination, and he stood thoughtful, considering the meaning of it.
"Come raght with me this minute, if the cyoast's clea'." She went to the door of the diningroom and looked in across its gloom to the little gallery where her father sat beside a lamp reading his evening paper; Mrs. Leighton could be heard in colloquy with the cook below, and Alma had gone to her room.
