The boy was going for a doctor, because his father, one of the lighthouse watchers, had been taken {l1l.” Inspector Halfyard waited until “What's your idea? asked Halfyard, “] should say we have to do with an unfortunate man who's gone mad,” replied the detective; “and a mad- man doesn’'t take long to find as a rule. I think it's murder right enough and I believe we shall find that this soldleir, who's had shell shock, turned on Pendean and cut his throat, then fondly hoping to, hide the crime, got away with the body. “Redmayne was a big, powerful man and he may have struck without intention to kill; but this mess means more than & blow with a fist. I think that he was a homicidal manlas and probably plotted the job before- hand with a madman’s limited cun- ning; and {f that is so, there's pretty sure to be news waiting for us at Princetown.” The correctness of Brendon's de- duction was made manifest within an hour, and the operations of Robert Redmayne defined up to a point. A man was walting at the police station —George French, hostler at Two Bridges Hotel, on West Dart. “T knew Captain Radmayne" he gald, ‘because he'd been down once or twice of late to tea at Two Bridges. Lest night, at half after ten, I was rossing the road from the garage and suddenly, without warning, a motor bike came over the bridge. I heard the rush of it and only got out of the way by a yard. There was no light showing but the man went through the beam thrown from the open door of the hotel and I saw it was the eaptain by his great mustache and his red waistcoat.” “Was anybody with him?" “No, sir. I'd have seen that much; but he carried a big sack behind the saddle—that I can swear.” There had been several telephone ealls for Inspector Halfyard during his absence; and now three separate statements from different districts awaited him. These were already written out by a constable, and he took them one by one, read them, and handed them to Brendon. The first came from the post office at Post Bridge, and the postmistress reported that a man, one Samuel White, had geen a motor bicycle run at great speed without lights up the steep hill northward of that village on the previous night. He gave the time as between half past ten and eleven o'clock. The second message told garage keeper was knocked Ashburton, just after midnight, order that petrol might be obtained for a motor bicycle.

SYLPHO~ NATHOL Brandon had read the messages and put them down, “About as easy as shelling peas— eh?" he asked. “I expected an arrest,” answered the tective. “It can’t be long delayed.” Ae though to confirm him the tele- phone bell rang and Halfyard rose and entered the box to receive the latest information. “Paignton speaking,” said the mes- sage. ‘“We have just called at ad- dress of Captain Redmayne—No 7 Marine Terrace, He was expected last night—had wired yesterday to say he'd be home. They left supper for him, as usual when he is expected, and went to bed. Didn't hear him return, but found on going down stairs next morning that he had come—supper eaten, motor bike in tool house in back yard, where he keeps it. They called him at ten o'clock—no answer. his room. Not there and bed not slept in and his clothes not changed. He's not been seen since.” Inspector Halfyard reported the statement and Brendon picked up the mouthplece. “Detective Brendon speaking. Who | ni is it?" “Inspector Reece, Paignton.” “Let me hear at flve o'clock if ar- rest has been made, Falling arrest I will motor down to you after that hour.” “Very good, sir.
