"They found the car from which he was evidently dragged the abandoned at the other side of village." These unnecessary details maddened her. She had gone over every aspect of the case, not once but hundred times, "Really I'm not interested," she was trapped into saying, and Bill Tanner was genuinely shocked. "Lady Lebanon! You've known this gentleman for years; he was a constant visitor your own doctor and friend, and you're not interested in his brutal murder?" She drew long breath.

"I'm terribly sorry, of course. It was an awful thing to have happened." He was a long time before he asked the next question; her nerves were on edge. "What did Dr. Amersham know?" he asked. She shot a quick glance at him and shook her head.

did he know?" repeated Tanner. "Your last words to him as he left the room were these:" He took notebook from his pocket, and considered it with great deliberation.

She spoke rapidly.

How long was your husband, the late Lord Lebanon, ill before he died?" She was not prepared for this sud. den and violent change of angle and had ta think. "Fifteen years." "Who attended him?" "Dr. The words came reluctantly. Out came Tanner's notebook again.

"Although he was ill so long. he died rather suddenly, didn't he? I've got the particulars of the certificate here. It is signed by Leicester sham, L.R.C.P. M.R.C.S The book went back to his pocket. She wondered what would be the next question he would ask, prompted by its pages.

"During his illness you administered his- affairs, you and -Dr. She nodded. found his name on a number of leases he signed under power of attorney." She felt on safer ground now, and had the impression that the crisis of the examination was past, "Yes, my husband liked the doctor, and he did help to administer his tate, as you say." She waited.

"No, nobody but Gilder and Brooks -they did everything." "I see. And the doctor signed thie certificate. The truth is that he died, and nobody saw him but Amersham, Gilder Brooks.

Amersham was considerably interested in his death." He saw her start. "I'm bringing no accusation. I'm merely stating facts, He blackmailed you because he knew something.
