ОглавлениеSALUTING THE OLD PICTURES ON THE WALL WITH MOCK COURTESY
THE DINING-ROOM DOOR OPENS, AND PHILIP ROCHE STANDS BEFORE THEM
"MR. AND MRS. GREBBY!"
SHE COVERS HER FACE WITH HER HANDS
"MAY I SEE THAT PHOTOGRAPH?"
"WHY, IT'S NEVER MR. ROCHE!" SHE EXCLAIMS
SHE RUSHES TO THE DOOR WITH A WILD CRY
ELEANOR STAGGERS ON BREATHLESSLY UP THE HILL
THE CRUEL FINGERS PRESS WITH DEADLY FORCE
BIG TOMBO BOWS ASSENT
BEARING TENDERLY THE LIMP BODY OF THE TERRIER
"WHAT VILLAIN HAS KILLED MY HORSE?"
SHE STEALS INTO THE VERANDAH AND WATCHES
PHILIP THROWS BACK HIS COAT, AND SHE SEES THE SHIRT BENEATH IT IS SPLASHED WITH BLOOD
