Possibly
he
leaves
England
and
only
comes
back
at
intervals
.
Then
comes
the
discovery
of
the
garret
,
and
he
is
instantly
informed
of
it
.
We
again
trace
the
presence
of
some
confederate
in
the
household
.
Jonathan
,
with
his
wooden
leg
,
is
utterly
unable
to
reach
the
lofty
room
of
Bartholomew
Sholto
.
He
takes
with
him
,
however
,
a
rather
curious
associate
,
who
gets
over
this
difficulty
,
but
dips
his
naked
foot
into
creasote
,
whence
comes
Toby
,
and
a
six
-
mile
limp
for
a
half
-
pay
officer
with
a
damaged
tendo
Achillis
.
”
“
But
it
was
the
associate
,
and
not
Jonathan
,
who
committed
the
crime
.
”
“
Quite
so
.
And
rather
to
Jonathan
’
s
disgust
,
to
judge
by
the
way
he
stamped
about
when
he
got
into
the
room
.
He
bore
no
grudge
against
Bartholomew
Sholto
,
and
would
have
preferred
if
he
could
have
been
simply
bound
and
gagged
.
He
did
not
wish
to
put
his
head
in
a
halter
.
There
was
no
help
for
it
,
however
:
the
savage
instincts
of
his
companion
had
broken
out
,
and
the
poison
had
done
its
work
:
so
Jonathan
Small
left
his
record
,
lowered
the
treasure
-
box
to
the
ground
,
and
followed
it
himself
.
That
was
the
train
of
events
as
far
as
I
can
decipher
them
.
Of
course
as
to
his
personal
appearance
he
must
be
middle
-
aged
,
and
must
be
sunburned
after
serving
his
time
in
such
an
oven
as
the
Andamans
.
His
height
is
readily
calculated
from
the
length
of
his
stride
,
and
we
know
that
he
was
bearded
.
His
hairiness
was
the
one
point
which
impressed
itself
upon
Thaddeus
Sholto
when
he
saw
him
at
the
window
.
I
don
’
t
know
that
there
is
anything
else
.
”
“
The
associate
?
”
“
Ah
,
well
,
there
is
no
great
mystery
in
that
.
But
you
will
know
all
about
it
soon
enough
.
How
sweet
the
morning
air
is
!
See
how
that
one
little
cloud
floats
like
a
pink
feather
from
some
gigantic
flamingo
.
Now
the
red
rim
of
the
sun
pushes
itself
over
the
London
cloud
-
bank
.
It
shines
on
a
good
many
folk
,
but
on
none
,
I
dare
bet
,
who
are
on
a
stranger
errand
than
you
and
I
.
How
small
we
feel
with
our
petty
ambitions
and
strivings
in
the
presence
of
the
great
elemental
forces
of
nature
!
Are
you
well
up
in
your
Jean
Paul
?
”
“
Fairly
so
.
I
worked
back
to
him
through
Carlyle
.
”
“
That
was
like
following
the
brook
to
the
parent
lake
.
He
makes
one
curious
but
profound
remark
.
It
is
that
the
chief
proof
of
man
’
s
real
greatness
lies
in
his
perception
of
his
own
smallness
.
It
argues
,
you
see
,
a
power
of
comparison
and
of
appreciation
which
is
in
itself
a
proof
of
nobility
.
There
is
much
food
for
thought
in
Richter
.
You
have
not
a
pistol
,
have
you
?
”
“
I
have
my
stick
.
”
“
It
is
just
possible
that
we
may
need
something
of
the
sort
if
we
get
to
their
lair
.
Jonathan
I
shall
leave
to
you
,
but
if
the
other
turns
nasty
I
shall
shoot
him
dead
.
”
He
took
out
his
revolver
as
he
spoke
,
and
,
having
loaded
two
of
the
chambers
,
he
put
it
back
into
the
right
-
hand
pocket
of
his
jacket
.
