"How long have you been in Mr. Crevcllng'H employment V" ror eleven years, sir. -Inspector I)ruet suddenly changed the tenor of his (piestloning. "The butler nnd cook are not in the house. When did jou see them here lust?" "Yesterdny afternoon." Krnnk Hill shifted his weight from one foot to tllR other, the first sign of nervousness which he had displayed throughout the interview save ins momentary shock nt the intelligence of his muster's death nud the innnncr of it. "They nren't. in tlie houe now. Do jou know where they have gnni'.'" "No, sir," Theie was no surprise In the vnlet "s tone, hut u soit of defiant reserve beneath the slightly ironic defer ence which obilouHly nettled the In spector. , "You knew, however, that they were to be absent last night? I wnnt the story. Hill. No hedging!" "Kollins. the butler, told me tlmt Mr. ('reveling hnd given him nnd ills wife a lioliilaj, but they were to be back early this morning, to prepare for Mrs. Cievellng's homecoming." " 'Homecoming'?" repeated Inspector Druct sharply. "You suid just now " "I beg pardon, Mr." The ipiict voice forestalled him. "I mennt to say that the house wns not to be reopened again with the staff this season.

I under stood that Mrs. ('reveling was to re turn this morning with her uinlil for n few days of propnintlon before start ing upon her journey with Mr. ('reve ling. Tlie butler anil cook, Yvonne the timid and myself could, of course, hno giM'ti sufficient service If no en tertaining were coiitemplnti'd." The inspector meditated for a mo ment. "Why did Mr. ('reveling give the butler nnd omit a holiday yesterdny, of all times, when he intended to receive some one here for supper last night?" he asked linnllj . 'Supposing the menl were to be supplied from u cnterer H. why did lie not require the services of tlie butler to wait upon the table?" As though he realbcd the slip he hnd made the valet's eyes sought those of Creveling's late partner, but Mr. Alex ander avoided them studiously. "I can't say. sir."

At the question nnd Its Impllcntlon Illll'i iiilor changed, hut his eyes once more met thoi' "f the inspector levelly. "I do not know Hint Mr. I'revellng ever did that, sir; I mean, purposely.
