Patricia, thrilled by the sweetness of the rippling, crooning song, and before the verse was half done, joined unconsciously in with the others, forgetting the need of words in the melody of the lilting song.

"I did, sir." Inspector Arkel, who could not see one inch beyond his nose, was quite satisfied with this explanation, and nodded in reply.

I can't thank you——".
