Or
let
me
be
honest
didn
t
I
subconsciously
realize
that
with
a
pig
-
headed
chap
like
him
,
it
was
my
best
chance
of
getting
him
not
to
read
it
?
His
nervousness
that
night
was
interesting
psychologically
.
He
knew
danger
was
close
at
hand
.
And
yet
he
never
suspected
me
.
The
dagger
was
an
afterthought
.
I
d
brought
up
a
very
handy
little
weapon
of
my
own
,
but
when
I
saw
the
dagger
lying
in
the
silver
table
,
it
occurred
to
me
at
once
how
much
better
it
would
be
to
use
a
weapon
that
couldn
t
be
traced
to
me
.
I
suppose
I
must
have
meant
to
murder
him
all
along
.
As
soon
as
I
heard
of
Mrs
.
Ferrars
s
death
,
I
felt
convinced
that
she
would
have
told
him
everything
before
she
died
.

When
I
met
him
and
he
seemed
so
agitated
,
I
thought
that
perhaps
he
knew
the
truth
,
but
that
he
couldn
t
bring
himself
to
believe
it
,
and
was
going
to
give
me
the
chance
of
refuting
it
.
So
I
went
home
and
took
my
precautions
.
If
the
trouble
were
after
all
only
something
to
do
with
Ralph
well
,
no
harm
would
have
been
done
.
The
dictaphone
he
had
given
me
two
days
ago
to
adjust
.
Something
had
gone
a
little
wrong
with
it
,
and
I
persuaded
him
to
let
me
have
a
go
at
it
,
instead
of
sending
it
back
.
I
did
what
I
wanted
to
,
and
took
it
up
with
me
in
my
bag
that
evening
.
I
am
rather
pleased
with
myself
as
a
writer
.
What
could
be
neater
,
for
instance
,
than
the
following
:
"
The
letters
were
brought
in
at
twenty
minutes
to
nine
.
It
was
just
on
ten
minutes
to
nine
when
I
left
him
,
the
letter
still
unread
.
I
hesitated
with
my
hand
on
the
door
handle
,
looking
back
and
wondering
if
there
was
anything
I
had
left
undone
.
"
All
true
,
you
see
.
But
suppose
I
had
put
a
row
of
stars
after
the
first
sentence
!
Would
somebody
then
have
wondered
what
exactly
happened
in
that
blank
ten
minutes
?

When
I
looked
round
the
room
from
the
door
,
I
was
quite
satisfied
.
Nothing
had
been
left
undone
.
The
dictaphone
was
on
the
table
by
the
window
,
timed
to
go
off
at
ninethirty
(
the
mechanism
of
that
little
device
was
rather
clever
based
on
the
principle
of
an
alarm
clock
)
,
and
the
armchair
was
pulled
out
so
as
to
hide
it
from
the
door
.
I
must
admit
that
it
gave
me
rather
a
shock
to
run
into
Parker
just
outside
the
door
.
I
have
faithfully
recorded
that
fact
.
Then
later
,
when
the
body
was
discovered
,
and
I
sent
Parker
to
telephone
for
the
police
,
what
a
judicious
use
of
words
:
"
I
did
what
little
had
to
be
done
!
"
It
was
quite
little
just
to
shove
the
dictaphone
into
my
bag
and
push
back
the
chair
against
the
wall
in
its
proper
place
.
I
never
dreamed
that
Parker
would
have
noticed
that
chair
.
Logically
,
he
ought
to
have
been
so
agog
over
the
body
as
to
be
blind
to
everything
else
.
But
I
hadn
t
reckoned
with
the
trained
servant
complex
.
