I was telling him about our trying to find the secret drawer I mentioned your name and he asked who you were. I told him you were a genius at solving mysteries." Godfrey nodded. "That," he said, "explains the one thing I didn't understand. Now go ahead with your questions." "You said a while ago that you would know all about this affair day after to-morrow." "Yes." "How do you know you will?"

He waited till all the boys were gone, and then went up to the teacher. "Well, Godfrey, what is it?" asked the master. "Mr. Stone, I want to make a complaint against Andrew Burke," said Godfrey. "What has he done?" "He is a brute," said Godfrey, in an excited manner. "He dared to come up behind my back before school began, and knock me down.

Indian members were asked to realise that for a British officer a broken career is virtually the end of life, and Sir Godfrey Fell had no need to mention General Dyer's name when he said, "As it was put to me the other day by a very distinguished general officer, to leave the army in these circumstances would be to many officers a disgrace worse than death."

"But you ought to treat us all alike," he protested. "I do treat you all alike." "But didn't Godfrey get it out of you?" "Godfrey?" I repeated. "Get it out of me?" He stared at me in astonishment.
