If
I
am
not
mistaken
,
this
is
a
wall
that
might
easily
belong
to
the
house
on
the
lake
.
"
He
was
striking
a
partition
-
wall
of
the
"
tub
,
"
and
perhaps
it
would
be
as
well
for
the
reader
to
know
how
the
bottom
and
the
partition
-
walls
of
the
tub
were
built
.
In
order
to
prevent
the
water
surrounding
the
building
-
operations
from
remaining
in
immediate
contact
with
the
walls
supporting
the
whole
of
the
theatrical
machinery
,
the
architect
was
obliged
to
build
a
double
case
in
every
direction
.
The
work
of
constructing
this
double
case
took
a
whole
year
.
It
was
the
wall
of
the
first
inner
case
that
the
Persian
struck
when
speaking
to
Raoul
of
the
house
on
the
lake
.
To
any
one
understanding
the
architecture
of
the
edifice
,
the
Persian
’
s
action
would
seem
to
indicate
that
Erik
’
s
mysterious
house
had
been
built
in
the
double
case
,
formed
of
a
thick
wall
constructed
as
an
embankment
or
dam
,
then
of
a
brick
wall
,
a
tremendous
layer
of
cement
and
another
wall
several
yards
in
thickness
.
At
the
Persian
’
s
words
,
Raoul
flung
himself
against
the
wall
and
listened
eagerly
.
But
he
heard
nothing
.
.
.
nothing
.
.
.
except
distant
steps
sounding
on
the
floor
of
the
upper
portions
of
the
theater
.
The
Persian
darkened
his
lantern
again
.
"
Look
out
!
"
he
said
.
"
Keep
your
hand
up
!
And
silence
!
For
we
shall
try
another
way
of
getting
in
.
"
And
he
led
him
to
the
little
staircase
by
which
they
had
come
down
lately
.
They
went
up
,
stopping
at
each
step
,
peering
into
the
darkness
and
the
silence
,
till
they
came
to
the
third
cellar
.
Here
the
Persian
motioned
to
Raoul
to
go
on
his
knees
;
and
,
in
this
way
,
crawling
on
both
knees
and
one
hand
—
for
the
other
hand
was
held
in
the
position
indicated
—
they
reached
the
end
wall
.
Against
this
wall
stood
a
large
discarded
scene
from
the
ROI
DE
LAHORE
.
Close
to
this
scene
was
a
set
piece
.
Between
the
scene
and
the
set
piece
there
was
just
room
for
a
body
.
.
.
for
a
body
which
one
day
was
found
hanging
there
.
The
body
of
Joseph
Buquet
.
The
Persian
,
still
kneeling
,
stopped
and
listened
.
For
a
moment
,
he
seemed
to
hesitate
and
looked
at
Raoul
;
then
he
turned
his
eyes
upward
,
toward
the
second
cellar
,
which
sent
down
the
faint
glimmer
of
a
lantern
,
through
a
cranny
between
two
boards
.
This
glimmer
seemed
to
trouble
the
Persian
.
