"
It
is
horrible
—
horrible
!
"
said
the
Professor
.
"
I
don
’
t
wonder
at
your
feelings
.
Take
me
to
your
room
.
"
"
But
this
shall
not
be
left
exposed
!
"
cried
Mortimer
.
He
picked
the
breastplate
up
and
carried
it
tenderly
in
his
hand
,
while
I
walked
beside
the
Professor
,
like
a
policeman
with
a
malefactor
.
We
passed
into
Mortimer
’
s
chambers
,
leaving
the
amazed
old
soldier
to
understand
matters
as
best
he
could
.
The
Professor
sat
down
in
Mortimer
’
s
arm
-
chair
,
and
turned
so
ghastly
a
colour
that
for
the
instant
all
our
resentment
was
changed
to
concern
.
A
stiff
glass
of
brandy
brought
the
life
back
to
him
once
more
.
"
There
,
I
am
better
now
!
"
said
he
.
"
These
last
few
days
have
been
too
much
for
me
.
I
am
convinced
that
I
could
not
stand
it
any
longer
.
It
is
a
nightmare
—
a
horrible
nightmare
—
that
I
should
be
arrested
as
a
burglar
in
what
has
been
for
so
long
my
own
museum
.
And
yet
I
cannot
blame
you
.
You
could
not
have
done
otherwise
.
My
hope
always
was
that
I
should
get
it
all
over
before
I
was
detected
.
This
would
have
been
my
last
night
’
s
work
.
"
"
How
did
you
get
in
?
"
asked
Mortimer
.
"
By
taking
a
very
great
liberty
with
your
private
door
.
But
the
object
justified
it
.
The
object
justified
everything
.
You
will
not
be
angry
when
you
know
everything
—
at
least
,
you
will
not
be
angry
with
me
.
I
had
a
key
to
your
side
door
and
also
to
the
museum
door
.
I
did
not
give
them
up
when
I
left
.
And
so
you
see
it
was
not
difficult
for
me
to
let
myself
into
the
museum
.
I
used
to
come
in
early
before
the
crowd
had
cleared
from
the
street
.
Then
I
hid
myself
in
the
mummy
-
case
,
and
took
refuge
there
whenever
Simpson
came
round
.
I
could
always
hear
him
coming
.
I
used
to
leave
in
the
same
way
as
I
came
.
"
"
You
ran
a
risk
.
"
"
I
had
to
.
"
"
But
why
?
What
on
earth
was
your
object
—
YOU
to
do
a
thing
like
that
!
"
Mortimer
pointed
reproachfully
at
the
plate
which
lay
before
him
on
the
table
.
"
I
could
devise
no
other
means
.
I
thought
and
thought
,
but
there
was
no
alternate
except
a
hideous
public
scandal
,
and
a
private
sorrow
which
would
have
clouded
our
lives
.
I
acted
for
the
best
,
incredible
as
it
may
seem
to
you
,
and
I
only
ask
your
attention
to
enable
me
to
prove
it
.
