Mentally my mood was a restless one, but it did not reflect itself physically; for I stood there leaning against the window whilst a procession of all the figures associated with the "Oritoga mystery" raced through my mind. And presently as I stood there contemplating a mental image of the Eurasian doctor, I heard the telephone bell ring.
"Yet," I urged, "there is no visible connection between the episodes of the case and this strange apparition which I saw in the garden last night." "There was no visible connection between Sir Marcus's body in a packing-case in the hold of the Oritoga and the garage of the house in College Road until we found one," retorted Gatton.
I stood looking after the cab until it was out of sight and then I set out to walk to the Planet office. By the time that I had reached Fleet Street I had my ideas in some sort of order and I sat down to write the first of my articles on the "Oritoga mystery" for under that title the murder of Sir Marcus Coverly was destined to figure as the cause célèbre of the moment.
A new and strange theory to account for "the Oritoga mystery" had presented itself to me a horrible theory, yet, so far as my present data went, a feasible one. Above all, I realized that I had committed a strategical error in openly seeking an interview with Lady Coverly. But I had not, when I had formed that plan, known of the existence of Dr. Damar Greefe.
