Of what transpired within those grim walls only the two men called to his assistance by Sergeant Deacon knew, and to them both the inspector from Maldon, as well as Trendall, expressed a fervent hope that they would regard the matter as strictly confidential. "You see, gentlemen," added Trendall, "we are not desirous that the public should know of our discovery.
Though more than three months have elapsed, and I have kept observation upon the house a large one, standing in its own grounds I have seen no sign of poultry farming, and therefore deem it a matter for a report. SAMUEL DEACON, Sergeant, Essex Constabulary." "Curious!" remarked Walter, when he had finished reading it. "Yes," said Trendall. "There may be nothing in it."
In a letter sent by Archbishop Neile, of York, to Bishop Laud, in 1639, reference is made to Wightman's case, and it is stated that another man, one Trendall, deserves the same sentence.
When the doctor and Sir Hugh faced each other there was a painful silence for a few seconds. To Weirmarsh Trendall was known by sight, therefore the criminal saw that the game was up, and that Sir Hugh had risked his own reputation in betraying him. "You infernal scoundrel!" cried the doctor angrily. "You to whom I have paid so many thousands of pounds have given me away!
He did not reveal the results of the close independent inquiries he had already made results which had utterly astounded, and at the same time mystified, him. "Well," said Trendall, "what the Press published was mostly fiction. Even the evidence given before the coroner was utterly unreliable.
"Bellairs was not certain that his sudden seizure was not due to something he had eaten at the club remember he was not certain that her hand had administered the fatal drug," replied Trendall. A hard, serious expression rested upon his face.
"Then I think that you need seek no farther for the correct solution," replied Trendall quietly, looking into the other's pale countenance. "Your lady friend killed him in order to preserve her own secret." "But what was her secret?" "We have that yet to establish. It must have been a serious one for her to close his lips in such a manner." "But they were good friends," declared Fetherston.
What made you suspicious?" "One very important incident Weirmarsh came in with another man, and, in passing, nodded to Granier. That set me thinking." "But you do not know of any actual dealings with the doctor?" "I know of none," replied Walter. "Still, I'm very sick that, after all my pains, they should have escaped to Paris so suddenly." "Never mind," said Trendall.
"From the first you suspected Sir Hugh's stepdaughter, eh?" Fetherston hesitated. Then afterwards he nodded slowly in the affirmative. "Yes," went on Trendall, "I knew all along that you were suspicious. You made a certain remarkable discovery, eh, Fetherston?" The novelist started. At what did his friend hint?
"You seem unusually thoughtful, Fetherston," remarked Trendall with some curiosity, as he seated himself at the table and resumed the opening of his letters which his friend's visit had interrupted. "What's the matter?" "The fact is, I'm very much puzzled." "About what? You're generally very successful in obtaining solutions where other men have failed."
