"I know that Brake married a girl from Braden Medworth, that he took her to London, where he was manager of a branch bank, that he got into trouble, and was sentenced to ten years' penal servitude," answered Bryce, "together with some small details into which we needn't go at present."
"And as there's ten thousand pounds in question, more will be heard of it. Somebody'll be after that, you may be sure!" Bryce left the train at Barthorpe thanking his good luck the man in the far corner had unwittingly given him a hint. He would pay a visit to Braden Medworth the coincidence was too striking to be neglected.
Now close to Barthorpe a mile or two outside it, there's a village of that name Braden Medworth. That's a curious coincidence and taken in conjunction with the man's possession of an old book about Barthorpe why, perhaps there's something in it possibly more than I thought for at first." "Well it's an odd case a very odd case," said the first speaker.
"The fact is, I was referred to you, yesterday, by the present vicar of Braden Medworth both he, and the sexton there, Claybourne, whom you, of course, remember, thought you would be able to give me some information on a subject which is of great importance to me." "I don't know the present vicar," remarked Mr. Gilwaters, motioning Bryce to a chair, and taking another close by.
And while he sat in the inn parlour awaiting his lunch, he turned to the carefully-compiled index, glancing it through rapidly. On the third page he saw the name Bewery. If the man who had followed Bryce from Barthorpe to Braden Medworth had been with him in the quiet inn parlour he would have seen his quarry start, and heard him let a stifled exclamation escape his lips.
"I'll do that, Lidderdale." "I should think you jolly well would," Mark exclaimed scornfully. Mark spent a long time over the telegram to Dorward; in the end he decided that it would be safer to assume that the priest would shelter and hide Cyril rather than take the risk of getting an answer. The final draft was as follows: Dorward Green Lanes Medworth Hants
The man who had spent a very lazy day in keeping an eye on Bryce, as he visited the various public places whereat he made his researches, was also keeping an eye upon him next morning, when Bryce, breakfasting earlier than usual, prepared for a second day's labours. He followed his quarry away from the little town: Bryce was walking out to Braden Medworth.
