Name's Deland, he said with a knowing wink, speaking in the nick of time, before the Sergeant in his astonishment and admiration for this man who stood before him, and whose name was a household word upon the tongue of every policeman the world over, had quite given the show away to the rest of his followers.

Arthur Deland. You've probably heard of me, Sergeant, if you follow the doings of Scotland Yard at all. Came up here under Mr. Narkom's orders to handle another case, and then dropped--_plop!_--upon this one. Better come along now. I want you to set a couple of men before the library door, where the thing took place--nothing to be moved, of course, or touched in any way, until Mr. Narkom arrives--and then send another of your men back to fetch ten more reserves, and stand guard all round the house from the outside. Tell 'em to report to you every half hour, and if there's anything doing bring it along to me at once. You understand?

Yessir. Certainly, sir.

Then come along.
