Now, I propose that we arrange these tableaux six in all and then, if we run through them a second time, just to be sure we have not forgotten our places, we shall have nothing to do but to talk over any details that may occur to us. First, Mrs. Sartoris, which will you represent, the Lady or the Chambermaid of my charades?" "Well, if you will allow me, I think I will do the Lady," said Mrs.
It is true that it came by post and was not addressed to me here, but it is proof positive of the fact that our yellow friends are on the right track at last. They may even be outside now. That is why I want you to go as far as Edward Street without delay." Richford seemed to be convinced at last, for he made no reply. "And you need not worry about your wife for the present," Sartoris went on.
I gathered that the scoundrel Sartoris was once engaged to a young lady who threw him over. Now it occurred to me that the young lady might give me an idea or two, provided that she is in England at the present moment." "Why should you think that she is not here?" Beatrice asked. "Because the engagement took place at Simla.
Sartoris asked in French, and in a whisper, so low that Berrington could hardly hear. "Speak to me, Colonel, and use the same language that I am using." "All right," Berrington replied. "Anything wrong downstairs? What can I do to help you?" "Come down as quickly as possible. Take your boots off, and creep into my study.
"I saved your life, which was perhaps a foolish thing to do, especially as you had made preparations to sacrifice mine for so doing. Whilst your hands have been so full, I have been making investigations in the house. Really, I have been very well repaid for my trouble." Sartoris started and looked up uneasily. For once his ready tongue failed him.
But he would never see it, and if he had, where was the capital to work it? But why he never told me that he had made the thing over to you " "Did he ever tell anybody anything that facilitated business?" Sartoris laughed. "I daresay he forgot all about it, poor fellow." Sartoris shuffled painfully out of the office with the help of the lawyer, and got into a cab.
"What devil's work are you upon now?" Richford growled. "My dear sir, you must not speak to an invalid like that," Sartoris said. "Do you not know that I am sensitive as to my own beloved flowers? It was my flowers that I asked you to come and see. Since you were here last, the room has been entirely redecorated.
Sartoris spoke in a waspish whisper: "So the land lies in that quarter," he said. "We have an informer amongst us. If I had known that before, my good Bentwood, if I had known that before!" Big as he was, Bentwood looked small and mean at that moment. "You are quite mistaken," he cried. "You are altogether wrong, my dear Carl. I am as much of a prisoner as any of you.
Field was particularly interested. All this worked out beautifully with his theory. "I expect the body was concealed here," he said. "The thing has been well worked out. But do you suppose that Sartoris went to all this trouble and expense for the simple reason " "He didn't," Berrington explained. "Miss Sartoris, or Miss Grey as I prefer to call her, told me all about that.
"Well, we thought of walking up to the camp and having a look at the sea." "And to search for Mrs. Sartoris's brother," interposed Jim Bloxam. "You have a brother quartered at Rockcliffe, Mrs. Sartoris? I wonder whether we know him? What is he in?" exclaimed Laura Chipchase. "No; it is only some of Captain Bloxam's nonsense.
