The Murder atHazelmoor

"rho evidence ' Pearson is all right," Narraoott, admitted to the chief constable, "circumstantial and all that, and any lury ought to convict on it. Still, what you say is true enough-J don't sec him as a mur- derer."

"And his yWng lady is very act- ive in the case," said the Chief

Constable.

"Miss Trefusis, yes, she's a one and no mistake. A real lflne young lady. And absolutely determined to get him ofl. She's got hold of that Journalist, Enderby, and she's work- ing him for all she's worth. She's s great deal too good for Mr. James Pearson. Beyond his good looks I wouldn't say there was much to him in the way oi character."

“But if she's a managing young woman that's what she likes." said the Chief Constable.

"Ah well," said Inspector Narra- cott, there's no accountl for tastes. Well, you agree, sir. that I had better take up this alibi of Derlng's without any more delay."

"Yes, get on to it at once. What about the fourth interested party in the will? '11iere's a fourth, isn't there?" '

“Yes, the sister. ‘That's perfectly all right. I have made. inquiries there. She was at home airslx o'clock all right, sir. I'll get right on with the Daring business."

It was about five hours later that Inspector Narracott found Mr. Der- lng at home. He couldn't be disturb- ed as he was writing, the maid had sald- at first, but the inspector had produced an official card and bade her take it to her master without delay. While waiting he strode up and down the room. His mind was working actively. I-le picked up a rather battered old book. ‘Pride and Prejudice.’ He opened the cover and saw scrawled on the fly-leaf in rather faded- ink the name, Martha Rycroit. Somehow, the name of Rycroft seemed familiar, but he could not for the moment remem- ber why. 1-le was interupted as the door opened and Martin Dering came into the room.

The novelist was a man of middle height with thick rather heavy chestnut hair. He was good-looking in a somewhat heavy fashion, with lips that were rather full and red. Inspector Narracott was not pre- possessed by his appearance.

"Good morning, Mr. Daring. Sor- ry to trouble you all here again." "Oh, it doesn't matter, inspector, but really I can't tell you any more than you've been told already." "We were led to understan‘ that your brother-in-law, Mr. Brian Pearson, was in Australia. Now, we find that he has been in England for the last two months. Your wife distinctly told me that he was in New South Wales."

"Brian in Englandi" Dering seemed genuinely astonished. "I can assure you, inspector, that I had no knowledge of the fact-nor, I'm sure. had my wife. Sylvia has twice written him letters to Aus- tralia during that time."

"Oh. well, in that case I apologize, sir. But naturally I thought he would have mmunclated with his relations and I was a bit sore with you for’ holding out on me."

"Well, as I tell you we knew noth- ing. Have a cigarette, inspec‘ l’ By the way, I see you've recaptured your escaped convict.‘

"I suppose many people don't es- cape from Prlncetown?"

“It's well-nigh impossible, sir. But this particular escape was ex- traordinarily well planned and car- ried out. We haven't nearly got to the bottom of it yet."

“We " Dering rose and glanced at his watch, "if there's nothing more, inspector-I'm afraid I am rather a busy man "

"Oh, but there is something more, m. Dering. I want to know why you told me that you were at a lit- erary dinner at the Cecil Hotel on Friday night?"

"I—-I don't understand you, in- specter."

"I think you do, air. You weren't at that dinner, Mr. Daring."

Martin Derlng hesitated. His eyes ran uncertainly from the inspec- tor's face, up to the ceiling, then to the door, and then to liis feet.

you, llr. Daring. I thought you could remember if you tried. Now, your statement is that you lunched with 1dr. Rosenkraum and that you spent the afternoon with him. At what time did you leave him?"

"About five o'clock I should say.”

“And then?" ness of yours. That's all you want surely."

Inspector Nerracott nodded thoughtfully. If Rosenkraum con- firmed Dcring's statement then any ease against Derlng must fall to the ground. Wha‘ his mysterious activities had been that evening could not affect the case.

"What are you going to do?" de- manded Dering uneasily.

“Wireless Mr. Rosenkraun on board the Gsrgantua." . "Damn it all." cried Derlng,

"you'll involve me in all sorts of publicity. Look here—"

He went acres to his desk, scrib- bled s few words on a bit of paper, then took it to the inspector.

"I suppose you've got to do what you're doing," he said ungraclously, “but at least you mtght do it in my way. It's not fair to run a chap in for a lot of trouble."

On the sheet of paper was writ-

"Have the reply sent straight to you-I don't mind. But don't have it sent to Scotland Yard or a police station. You don't know what these Americans are like. Any hint of me being mixed up in a police case and this new contract that I've been discussing will go to the winds. Keep it a private matter, inspector."

"I’ve no objection that, Mr. Derlng. All I want is t c truth, I'll send this reply paid, the reply to be sent to my private address in Exe- ter." “Thank you, you are a good chap. It's not such easy going earning your living by literature, inspector. You'll see the answer will be all right.

Emily Treiusis, and Charles En- derby were seated at a small table in Deller's Cale in Exeter. It was half past three and at that hour there was comparative peace and quiet. A few people were having a. quiet cu poi tea, but the rtstaurant on the whole was deserted. "

“Well," said Charles, "what. do you think of him?"

Emily frowned.

"It's difficult," she said.

After his interview with the pol- ice, Brlan Pearson had lunched with them. l-Ie had been extremely polite to Emily, rather too polite in her opinion.

To that astute girl it seemed a shade unnatural. Here was a young man conducting a clandestine love aiIair and an officlous stranger butts in.

Brian Pearson had taken it like a lamb, had fallen in with Charlcs's suggestion of having a car and driv- ing over to see the police.

Why this attitude of meek ac- qulescen ‘I It seemed to Emily en- tirely untypical of the natural Brian Pearson as sh.- read his character.

"I'll see you in h~—- first!" would she felt sure, have been for more his attitude.

This lamb-like demeanor was sus- pleious. She tried to convey some- thing of her feelings to Enderby.

"I get you." said Enderby. "Our Brian has got something to con- ceal, thereiore he can't be his nat- ursl hlQi-handed sell."

‘That's it exactly."

"Do you think he might possibly have killed old ‘rrevelyan?’

“Brian? said Emily thoughtfully, "is-well, a person to be reckoned with. I-Ie is rather unscrupulous, I should think, and- if he wanted lllly- thing, I don't think he would let ordinary conventional standards stand in his way. He's not plain tame English."
