"Arrived this noon. Have I your permission to come to Hillsboro immediately? Answer. Alfred." At first he thought of going into Deanminster for the purpose of speaking with Inspector Arkel about the discovery of the devil-stick; but upon reflection he deemed it wiser not to do so, at all events for the present. Arkel could come only to the same conclusion as himself--namely, that Battersea, innocent of the crime, had picked up the devil-stick on the grounds of Mrs. Dallas.

"What is it?" asked Mrs. Dallas, her curiosity--like that of the major--getting the better of her rage. "Well; no, major. I presume it is in connection with the case." "No," he said in a firm voice to all three. "I accept. I shall defend Max Etwald." "Neither do I, but I think of one name, my friend.".
