She
’
s
doing
some
mending
.
I
can
’
t
spare
her
.
"
Caroline
and
I
looked
at
each
other
.
"
Very
well
,
"
I
said
,
rising
.
"
But
if
I
take
the
beastly
thing
,
I
shall
just
leave
it
at
the
door
.
You
understand
that
?
"
My
sister
raised
her
eyebrows
.
"
Naturally
,
"
she
said
.
"
Who
suggested
you
should
do
anything
else
?
"
The
honours
were
with
Caroline
.
"
If
you
do
happen
to
see
M
.
Poirot
,
"
she
said
,
as
I
opened
the
front
door
,
"
you
might
tell
him
about
the
boots
.
"
It
was
a
most
subtle
parting
shot
.
I
wanted
dreadfully
to
understand
the
enigma
of
the
boots
.
When
the
old
lady
with
the
Breton
cap
opened
the
door
to
me
,
I
found
myself
asking
if
M
.
Poirot
was
in
,
quite
automatically
.
Poirot
sprang
up
to
meet
me
,
with
every
appearance
of
pleasure
.
"
Sit
down
,
my
good
friend
,
"
he
said
.
"
The
big
chair
?
This
small
one
?
The
room
is
not
too
hot
,
no
?
"
I
thought
it
was
stifling
,
but
refrained
from
saying
so
.
The
windows
were
closed
,
and
a
large
fire
burned
in
the
grate
.
"
The
English
people
,
they
have
a
mania
for
the
fresh
air
,
"
declared
Poirot
.
"
The
big
air
,
it
is
all
very
well
outside
,
where
it
belongs
.
Why
admit
it
to
the
house
?
But
let
us
not
discuss
such
banalities
.
You
have
something
for
me
,
yes
?
"
"
Two
things
,
"
I
said
.
"
First
–
this
–
from
my
sister
.
"
I
handed
over
the
pot
of
medlar
jelly
.
"
How
kind
of
Mademoiselle
Caroline
.
She
has
remembered
her
promise
.
And
the
second
thing
?
"
"
Information
–
of
a
kind
.
"
And
I
told
him
of
my
interview
with
Mrs
.
Ackroyd
.
He
listened
with
interest
,
but
not
much
excitement
.
"
It
clears
the
ground
,
"
he
said
thoughtfully
.
"
And
it
has
a
certain
value
as
confirming
the
evidence
of
the
housekeeper
.
She
said
,
you
remember
,
that
she
found
the
silver
table
lid
open
and
closed
it
down
in
passing
.
"
"
What
about
her
statement
that
she
went
into
the
drawing
-
room
to
see
if
the
flowers
were
fresh
?
"
"
Ah
!
we
never
took
that
very
seriously
,
did
we
,
my
friend
?
It
was
patently
an
excuse
,
trumped
up
in
a
hurry
,
by
a
woman
who
felt
it
urgent
to
explain
her
presence
–
which
,
by
the
way
,
you
would
probably
never
have
thought
of
questioning
.
I
considered
it
possible
that
her
agitation
might
arise
from
the
fact
that
she
had
been
tampering
with
the
silver
table
,
but
I
think
now
that
we
must
look
for
another
cause
.
