I shall now be glad if you will permit me to examine the gardens outside for a few minutes, alone with my assist- ant, if you please.’ * For almost a quarter of an hour Quest and Lenora disappeared. They all looked eagerly at the criminolo- gist on his return, “It seems to me,” he remarked, “that from the back part of the house the quickest way to reach Mayton Avenue would be through this cen- servatory and out of that door. This ts a path leading from just outside straight to a gate in the wall. Doet ny one that you know of use thie means of exit?” Mrs, Rheinholdt shook her head. “The servants might occasionally,” she remarked doubtfully, “but not on nights when I am receiving.” The butler atepped forward. He was looking a little gra “I ought, perhaps, to 1 madam, and Mr. Quest, “that I did, only a short time ago, suggest to the professor's servant— the man who brought your mackin- tosh, sir,” he added, turning to the professor—“that be could, if he chose, make use of this means of leaving the house. Mr. Craig is a personal friend of mine, and a ber of club we have for so- ial purposes.” “Did he follow your suggestion?” Sanford Quest asked. “Of that 1 am not aware, air,” the butler replied. “I left Mr, Craig with some refreshment, expecting that he would remain until my re- turn, but a few minutes later I di covered that he had left. I will ti quire in the kitchen if anything is known as to his movements.” He hurried off. Quest turned to the professor. “Has he been with you long, this man Craig, professor?” he asked. The professor’ ile was illumin- ating, his manner simple but con- vincing. “Craig,” he asserted, “is the beat servant, the most honest mortal who ever breathed.” You think it would be out of the question then,” Quest asked, “to asso- ciate him witb the crime?” ‘The professor's confidence was sub- lime. “[ could more readily associate ou, myself or young Mr. Rheinholdt ere with the affair,” he declared, His words carried weight.

In |® moment or two the butler returned, “It appesrs, madam,” he announced, “that Mr. Craig left when there was |only one person in the kitchen, He said good night and closed the door behind him.
