While the major, hardly able to credit his own eyes, was staring at the dead body of his dear lad, Jaggard, attracted also by the strange cry, came running up. "True enough," rejoined the major, struck by this sensible deduction. "Still, he might not have heard them forcing the window." The others stared at him, and with the skepticism of thoroughly healthy minds refused to attach much importance to Etwald's mysticism.

"Quite so, and into that gloomy courtyard which surrounds the house of Dr. Etwald," added Major Jen, with a satisfied smile, "Battersea saw the doctor take the body out of the carriage and carry it into the house. Then, on his return--Etwald's I mean--he unharnessed the horse and put it into the stable; also the carriage into the coach-house. Is that not so, Mr. Arkel?".
