Allerdyke slowly read the message through, pondering over it "We have made fullest inquiries concerning Lydenberg. He was certainly not in practice here either under that or any other name. Nothing is known of him as a resident in this city.
Or he could be shot by anybody lurking in one of those houses, and the murderer could be got away unobserved with the greatest ease. That's probably what's happened I know that street as well as I know my own house I'm not surprised by that! What I'm surprised about is to hear that Lydenberg has been shot at all.
Lydenberg came back, dressed, and on his heels came the manager of the hotel, startled and anxious, and with him an elderly professional-looking man whom he introduced as Dr. Orwin. When James Allerdyke's dead body had been lifted on to the bed, and the two medical men had begun a whispered conversation beside it, Allerdyke drew the hotel manager aside to a corner of the room.
Several orders countermanding one another have been coming in, to the general effect that we are probably to start somewhere to-day. The usual crop of diverse rumours as to our future. One says we go to Middelberg, another Lydenberg, another Petersberg.
The Perisco officials had not seen anything suspicious in the conduct or personality of any of their passengers. They had observed James Allerdyke in casual conversation with some of them they had seen him talking to Miss Lennard, to Dr. Lydenberg, to others, ladies and gentlemen who subsequently put up at the Station Hotel for the night.

No, sir, your cousin didn't give that photo to Lydenberg. That photo was sent to Lydenberg, Mr. Allerdyke sent! And it was sent for one purpose only. What? That he should be able to identify Mr. James Allerdyke as soon as he set eyes on him!" Allerdyke nodded his head in complete understanding and affirmation.
"I want justice. I'm not so much concerned about the jewels as about who killed my cousin. I believe that man Lydenberg did the actual killing but who was at Lydenberg's back? Find that out, and " "Exactly exactly!" broke in Fullaway. "The very thing! Well you understand, Allerdyke. Van Koon and I will want to keep our operations to ourselves. We don't want police interference.
Franklin Fullaway, of London just as anxious as I am to hear what you have to tell us, doctor. You've come to tell something, of course?" The doctor inclined his head towards Fullaway, and added a grave bow in answer to Allerdyke's question. "The autopsy has been made," he replied. "By Dr. Lydenberg, Dr. Quillet, who is one of the police-surgeons here, and myself.
"I never saw it, never heard of it, until the other day, when I was sent down on this Lydenberg business, but it struck me at once. I should think it's one of the oldest streets left in England." "It is," answered Allerdyke. "I know it well enough, and I've seen it changed.
