"but I believe I have heard the name of a surgeon who lives close by, in the rue Hauteville." "I also know of one," interposed de Jars, "a very skilful man." "You may command me." "Gladly, monsieur; for he lives some distance from here." "I am at your service."
"You never threatened Martinez with violence? Careful!" "No, sir," declared Kittredge stubbornly. Hauteville turned to his desk, and opening a leather portfolio, drew forth a paper and held it before Kittredge's eyes. "Do you recognize this writing?" "It's it's my writing," murmured Lloyd, and his heart sank. How had the judge got this letter? And had he the others? "You remember this letter?
We look then for a high place. It might be bold to expect to see the high place crowned by any actual building of the days of Tancred; but it seems only reasonable to argue that Hauteville must be Hauteville, that it must stand high.
"But why so much trouble," he asked, "when you have the woman's name and address already?" "I had them and I I lost them," acknowledged M. Paul, and in a few words he explained what had happened. "Oh," sneered the other, "I thought you were a skillful wrestler." "Come back to the point," put in Hauteville. "Had the chambermaid ever seen this lady before?" "Yes, but not recently.

As the detective puzzled over this there shot through his mind an idea for a move against Groener's resistance, so simple, yet promising such dramatic effectiveness that he turned quickly to Hauteville and said: "I think it might be as well to let him have some supper."
"Suppose I see the workman who is finishing the casts?" he suggested; "it won't take long, and perhaps I can bring them back with me." "Excellent," approved Hauteville, and he bowed with grave friendliness as the detective left the room.
The resistance here was obstinate; but the Germans were driven back, with great loss. The pursuers gave them no rest; but went forward at the double, and drove them out of Hauteville at the bayonet's point, thus winning back all the positions lost in the night.
"No," cried the prisoner with a supreme rally of his will power, "I have betrayed nothing nothing," and, once more, while the doctor marveled, his pulse steadied and strengthened and grew normal. "What a man!" muttered Coquenil. "We know the facts," went on Hauteville sternly, "we know why you killed Martinez and why you disguised yourself as a wood carver."
El-Wijh is still the main, indeed the only, harbour in South Midian; and, during our stay there, a large caravan brought goods, as will be seen, from the upper Wady Hamz. Under the influence of the quarantine, El-Wijh, the town on the northern bank of its cove, has blossomed into a hauteville, dating from the last dozen years.
