I
don
’
t
know
what
will
be
necessary
,
"
I
answered
.
"
I
imagine
Mr
.
Raymond
will
take
the
brunt
of
it
off
you
.
He
knows
all
the
circumstances
,
and
can
give
formal
evidence
of
identification
.
"
The
lawyer
assented
with
a
little
bow
.
"
I
really
don
’
t
think
there
is
anything
to
dread
,
Mrs
.
Ackroyd
,
"
he
said
.
"
You
will
be
spared
all
the
unpleasantness
.
Now
,
as
to
the
question
of
money
,
have
you
all
you
need
for
the
present
?
I
mean
,
"
he
added
,
as
she
looked
at
him
inquiringly
,
"
ready
money
.
Cash
,
you
know
.
If
not
,
I
can
arrange
to
let
you
have
whatever
you
require
.
"
"
That
ought
to
be
all
right
,
"
said
Raymond
,
who
was
standing
by
.
"
Mr
.
Ackroyd
cashed
a
cheque
for
a
hundred
pounds
yesterday
.
"
"
A
hundred
pounds
?
"
"
Yes
.
For
wages
and
other
expenses
due
today
.
At
the
moment
it
is
still
intact
.
"
"
Where
is
this
money
?
In
his
desk
?
"
"
No
,
he
always
kept
his
cash
in
his
bedroom
.
In
an
old
collar
box
,
to
be
accurate
.
Funny
idea
,
wasn
’
t
it
?
"
"
I
think
,
"
said
the
lawyer
,
"
we
ought
to
make
sure
the
money
is
there
before
I
leave
.
"
"
Certainly
,
"
agreed
the
secretary
.
"
I
’
ll
take
you
up
now
…
Oh
!
I
forgot
.
The
door
’
s
locked
.

Inquiry
from
Parker
elicited
the
information
that
Inspector
Raglan
was
in
the
housekeeper
’
s
room
asking
a
few
supplementary
questions
.
A
few
minutes
later
the
inspector
joined
the
party
in
the
hall
,
bringing
the
key
with
him
.
He
unlocked
the
door
and
we
passed
into
the
lobby
and
up
the
small
staircase
.
At
the
top
of
the
stairs
the
door
into
Ackroyd
’
s
bedroom
stood
open
.
Inside
the
room
it
was
dark
,
the
curtains
were
drawn
,
and
the
bed
was
turned
down
just
as
it
had
been
last
night
.
The
inspector
drew
the
curtains
,
letting
in
the
sunlight
,
and
Geoffrey
Raymond
went
to
the
top
drawer
of
a
rosewood
bureau
.
"
He
kept
his
money
like
that
,
in
an
unlocked
drawer
.
Just
fancy
,
"
commented
the
inspector
.
The
secretary
flushed
a
little
.
"
Mr
.
Ackroyd
had
perfect
faith
in
the
honesty
of
all
the
servants
,
"
he
said
hotly
.
"
Oh
!
quite
so
,
"
said
the
inspector
hastily
.
Raymond
opened
the
drawer
,
took
out
a
round
leather
collar
-
box
from
the
back
of
it
,
and
opening
it
,
drew
out
a
thick
wallet
.
