Excerpt: ..."A few more deaths and you would be in a position to command tribute from a high quarter, Monsieur." "Your mind seems to turn upon assassination. If you know so much about Stroebel's death, it's unfortunate that you left Europe at a time when you might have rendered important aid in finding the murderer.

It is so interesting that I have committed the record to memory. If the story would interest you-" The hand that again sought the slight mustache trembled slightly; but Chauvenet smiled. "You should write the memoirs of your very interesting career, my dear fellow. I can not listen to your babble longer." "I do not intend that you shall; but your whereabouts on Monday night, March eighteenth, of this year, may need explanation, Monsieur Chauvenet." "If it should, I shall call upon you, my dear fellow!" "Save yourself the trouble! The bureau I employed to investigate the matter could assist you much better.
