Tennison," I exclaimed quietly. "At present I cannot reveal to you more than I have done. Please excuse me. When I have fully verified my suspicions I will explain all that occurred to me all that is within my knowledge. Until then, please remain in patience." "I never dreamed that Gabrielle had a single enemy in the world. I cannot understand it," she exclaimed.
John's College, Oxford; Sheldon, 1667, buried at Croydon; Tillotson, 1694, buried in the church of St. Laurence Jewry, London; Tennison, 1715; and Potter, 1747, both buried at Croydon; Seeker, 1768; Cornwallis, 1783, and Moore, 1805, all buried at Lambeth. In 1381, the Archbishop, Simon of Sudbury, fell a victim to Wat Tyler and his crew, when they attacked Lambeth Palace.
Tennison remarked, instantly interested. "Gabrielle was found at the roadside. Do you think, then, that there is any connexion between your case and hers?" "Yes, Mrs. Tennison," I replied promptly. "It is for that reason I am in active search of the truth in the interests of your daughter, as well as of those of my own." "What do you suspect, Mr.
I was silent for a moment, then looking straight into her eyes, I replied very seriously: "I am making inquiries, Miss Tennison, into what happened to you during those days when you disappeared. I am seeking to bring punishment upon those who are responsible for your present condition." She shook her head mournfully, and a faint smile played about her lips. But she did not reply.
"It seems to me," remarked Rivero, "that the reason the poison-maker, Moroni, evinced such a keen interest in Miss Tennison, and his reason for taking her to a number of specialists was solely in order to gain their opinions and so further study the effects of the deadly drug which he prepared."
"The young lady, Miss Tennison, appears to be rather peculiar," I remarked casually to a woman at a baker's shop near by, after she had told me that she served them with bread. "Yes, poor young lady!" replied the woman. "She's never been the same since she was taken ill last November. They say she sustained some great shock which so upset her that her mind is now a little affected. Old Mrs.
Her mother has taken her to a number of mental specialists, I hear, but nobody seems to be able to do her any good. They say she's suffered from some shock, but they can't tell exactly what it is, because the young lady seems to have entirely lost her memory over a certain period." "Is Mrs. Tennison well off?" I asked. "No the reverse, I should think," the baker's wife replied.
Possibly he is, and I have heard his name in that connexion. Why do you ask?" "Because he has had my friend Miss Tennison under his care. He has taken her to see several specialists in Italy." Then in a sudden burst of confidence I told him of my great love for the girl who, like myself, had been attacked in secret.
I said, full of regret that I had taken that step which might so easily result in destroying all my chances of solving that puzzling enigma of Gabrielle Tennison. Nevertheless, it was a source of satisfaction that at last Despujol had, by my watchfulness, been run to earth.
"The reason of my warning is that he is her enemy as well as mine," I said, glancing at the beautiful girl, whose countenance had, alas! now grown inanimate again. "But I do not understand," Mrs. Tennison exclaimed. "Why should the doctor be Gabrielle's enemy?" "Ah! That I cannot tell except that he fears lest she should recover and reveal the truth a serious truth which would implicate him."
