He had been boozing all the day with a skipper of some craft at Southampton. He was good for nothing, so Mrs. Krill did everything. She declares that she went to bed at eleven leaving Lady Rachel sleeping." "Did Lady Rachel recover her senses?" "Yes according to Mrs.
"On account of Lady Rachel Sandal's murder?" Mrs. Krill controlled herself excellently, although she was startled by this speech, as was evident from the expression of her eyes. "That poor lady committed suicide," she said deliberately. "The jury at the inquest brought in a verdict of suicide " "By a majority of one," added Hurd, quickly.
This cheating to-night is only one thing. I know you are 'a man on the market, Mr. Hay." "What do you wish to hear?" asked Hay, collapsing. "All about Mrs. Krill's connection with this murder." "She has nothing to do with it. Really, she hasn't. Aaron Norman was her husband right enough " "And he ran away from her over twenty years ago. But who told Mrs. Krill about him?"
Krill from the hotel during the early part of July Deborah might induce her to talk freely. Hokar had proved a difficult subject. Whether he was too grateful to Mrs. Krill to speak out, or whether he really did not understand what was asked of him, he certainly showed a talent for holding his tongue.
Krill guessed that Hurd had been asking questions, and Matilda had been introduced to see if he was the man. He became certain of this when Miss Junk threw up her hands. "The commercial gent," she exclaimed. "Oh, no," said Maud, smiling smoothly. "This is Mr. Hurd, the detective, who is searching for the assassin of my dear father." "Lor," said Matilda, growing red.
"But how did Jessop get the brooch?" "Ah, that I can't tell you, unless Norman himself picked it up in the street. We must find these things out. I'm going to Christchurch to make inquiries. I'll let you know what I discover," and Hurd rose. "One minute," said Paul, hastily. "Do you think Miss Krill is the dead man's child?" "Of course. She's as like her mother as two peas. Why do you ask?"
Beecot, I'd be proud to show you what can be done with fronts, an' no thumbnails down them to spile their loveliness." Paul did not reply to this, but laughed absently. He was wondering if Deborah had ever heard her master drop any hint as to his having come from the place where Mrs. Krill resided, and asked the question on the spur of the moment. "Do you know Christchurch in Hants?"
"Then the will the money is left to Sylvia," he said with obstinacy. "I shall defend her rights." "Of course," said Mrs. Krill, significantly. "I understand that a wife with five thousand " "I would marry Sylvia without a penny." "Indeed, sir, that is the only way in which you can marry her. If you like I shall allow her twenty pounds for a trousseau." Paul rose and flung back his head again.
Beecot off the scent, seeing that he was defending Miss Norman's interests. Do you think I don't know that this woman Krill came to see you, through Hay, whose lawyer you are? She was here on that fatal evening," said Hurd, making a bold shot, "how did you prevent her seeing Norman?" Pash was completely thrown off his balance by this volley of language and presumption of knowledge. "Mrs.
But she was never sure if Maud had strangled Krill, as she feared to ask her. But as the girl was out all night at the time of the murder, Mrs. Jessop, I think, knows more than she choses to admit. However, the Treasury won't prosecute her, and her mind is now weak. Let the poor creature end her days with Jessop, father. Is there anything else you wish to know?" "That boy Tray?"
