"Certainly not," rejoined Etwald, with something like a sneer; "but you are also no detective." "I am a believer." "Oh, as to that, I was once a bit of a chemist," explained Arkel; "and when you took me to see Jaggard I smelt a curious perfume which seemed to be hanging about him. As a servant is not likely to use perfumes, I thought it curious.".

When the major had seen her carriage drive away he returned to look after the devil-stick, and examined it long and carefully.

But up to the present moment Jaggard had remained incapable of giving any clear evidence. Absolutely certain that Etwald was guilty, that Dido was an accomplice, Jen could not see his way to proving his case without the assistance of Jaggard.
