ejaculated
Phelps
.
"
He
was
bare-headed
,
but
he
had
a
black
cloak
thrown
over
his
shoulder
,
so
that
he
could
conceal
his
face
in
an
instant
if
there
were
any
alarm
.
He
walked
on
tiptoe
under
the
shadow
of
the
wall
,
and
when
he
reached
the
window
he
worked
a
long-bladed
knife
through
the
sash
and
pushed
back
the
catch
.
Then
he
flung
open
the
window
,
and
putting
his
knife
through
the
crack
in
the
shutters
,
he
thrust
the
bar
up
and
swung
them
open
.
"
From
where
I
lay
I
had
a
perfect
view
of
the
inside
of
the
room
and
of
every
one
of
his
movements
.
He
lit
the
two
candles
which
stood
upon
the
mantelpiece
,
and
then
he
proceeded
to
turn
back
the
corner
of
the
carpet
in
the
neighbourhood
of
the
door
.
Presently
he
stooped
and
picked
out
a
square
piece
of
board
,
such
as
is
usually
left
to
enable
plumbers
to
get
at
the
joints
of
the
gas-pipes
.
This
one
covered
,
as
a
matter
of
fact
,
the
T
joint
which
gives
off
the
pipe
which
supplies
the
kitchen
underneath
.
Out
of
this
hiding-place
he
drew
that
little
cylinder
of
paper
,
pushed
down
the
board
,
rearranged
the
carpet
,
blew
out
the
candles
,
and
walked
straight
into
my
arms
as
I
stood
waiting
for
him
outside
the
window
.
"
Well
,
he
has
rather
more
viciousness
than
I
gave
him
credit
for
,
has
Master
Joseph
.
He
flew
at
me
with
his
knife
,
and
I
had
to
grasp
him
twice
,
and
got
a
cut
over
the
knuckles
,
before
I
had
the
upper
hand
of
him
.
He
looked
murder
out
of
the
only
eye
he
could
see
with
when
we
had
finished
,
but
he
listened
to
reason
and
gave
up
the
papers
.
Having
got
them
I
let
my
man
go
,
but
I
wired
full
particulars
to
Forbes
this
morning
.
If
he
is
quick
enough
to
catch
his
bird
,
well
and
good
.
But
if
,
as
I
shrewdly
suspect
,
he
finds
the
nest
empty
before
he
gets
there
,
why
,
all
the
better
for
the
government
.
I
fancy
that
Lord
Holdhurst
,
for
one
,
and
Mr.
Percy
Phelps
for
another
,
would
very
much
rather
that
the
affair
never
got
as
far
as
a
police-court
.
"
"
My
God
!
"
gasped
our
client
.
"
Do
you
tell
me
that
during
these
long
ten
weeks
of
agony
the
stolen
papers
were
within
the
very
room
with
me
all
the
time
?
"
"
So
it
was
.
"
"
And
Joseph
!
Joseph
a
villain
and
a
thief
!
"
"
Hum
!
I
am
afraid
Joseph
's
character
is
a
rather
deeper
and
more
dangerous
one
than
one
might
judge
from
his
appearance
.
From
what
I
have
heard
from
him
this
morning
,
I
gather
that
he
has
lost
heavily
in
dabbling
with
stocks
,
and
that
he
is
ready
to
do
anything
on
earth
to
better
his
fortunes
.
Being
an
absolutely
selfish
man
,
when
a
chance
presents
itself
he
did
not
allow
either
his
sister
's
happiness
or
your
reputation
to
hold
his
hand
.
