"I was comparing that singer very unfavorably with you. Your voice is so unlike what one usually hears in drawing-rooms."This discovery at once irritated, amazed and perplexed the major. That the handkerchief of Mrs. Dallas should be bound around the head of Jaggard was strange, but that it should be perfumed with the deadly scent which impregnated the devil-stick was stranger still.
