In an old volume enumerating the noble families of Austro-Hungary he found two distinguished lines, "Laschlas" and "Rozi." From the library he went to a cable office where he sent a message to the chief of police of Budapesth inquiring about the remaining members of the families. The old volume in the library was thirty-four years behind the times: it was the only record obtainable in America.
At Cronin's agency, late that night, there came a cablegram from the greatest detective bureau of France. "The Montfleury case" was the most daring robbery and sale of state war secrets ever perpetrated in Paris. It had been successful, despite the capture, and conviction of the criminal, Laschlas Rozi, a Hungarian adventurer who had killed three men to carry his point.
After a couple of hours, which he devote to some personal matters, he received a response to his inquiry. When translated from the Hungarian it read thus: "Professor Montague Shirley, College Club, N.Y., U.S.A. Families extinct except Countess Laschlas, and son Count Rozi Laschlas, reported killed in Albanian revolution. Csherkini, Minister of Justice." The criminologist was happy.
But life to-day has taught me that the sins of the children are visited upon the fathers and the mothers especially, the sweet, loving, trusting mothers! As I value my honor, Reginald Warren, or Count Rozi, I will see to it that your mother shall know every detail of the whole miserable career of her son. That is my answer to your alleged confession.
