At
the
same
time
,
the
detective
,
being
all
too
familiar
with
such
circumstances
,
had
already
placed
himself
beyond
Mrs.
Peyton
at
the
foot
of
the
stairs
leading
to
the
floor
above
.
And
Mason
now
drew
from
his
pocket
a
writ
of
search
,
which
he
had
been
careful
to
secure
.
"
I
am
sorry
,
Madam
,
but
I
am
compelled
to
ask
you
to
show
us
his
room
.
This
is
a
search
warrant
and
this
officer
is
here
at
my
direction
.
"
And
at
once
struck
by
the
futility
of
contending
with
the
law
,
she
now
nervously
indicated
Clyde
's
room
,
feeling
still
that
some
insane
and
most
unfair
and
insulting
mistake
was
being
made
.
But
the
two
having
proceeded
to
Clyde
's
room
,
they
began
to
look
here
and
there
.
At
once
both
noted
one
small
and
not
very
strong
trunk
,
locked
and
standing
in
one
corner
,
which
Mr.
Faunce
,
the
detective
,
immediately
began
to
lift
to
decide
upon
its
weight
and
strength
,
while
Mason
began
to
examine
each
particular
thing
in
the
room
--
the
contents
of
all
drawers
and
boxes
,
as
well
as
the
pockets
of
all
clothes
.
And
in
the
chiffonier
drawers
,
along
with
some
discarded
underwear
and
shirts
and
a
few
old
invitations
from
the
Trumbulls
,
Starks
,
Griffiths
,
and
Harriets
,
he
now
found
a
memorandum
sheet
which
Clyde
had
carried
home
from
his
desk
and
on
which
he
had
written
:
"
Wednesday
,
Feb.
20th
,
dinner
at
Starks
"
--
and
below
that
,
"
Friday
,
22nd
,
Trumbulls
"
--
and
this
handwriting
Mason
at
once
compared
with
that
on
the
card
in
his
pocket
,
and
being
convinced
by
the
similarity
that
he
was
in
the
room
of
the
right
man
,
he
took
the
invitations
and
then
looked
toward
the
trunk
which
the
detective
was
now
contemplating
.
"
What
about
this
,
chief
?
Will
you
take
it
away
or
open
it
here
?
"
"
I
think
,
"
said
Mason
solemnly
,
"
we
'd
better
open
that
right
here
,
Faunce
.
I
'll
send
for
it
afterwards
,
but
I
want
to
see
what
's
in
it
now
.
"
And
at
once
the
detective
extracted
from
his
pocket
a
heavy
chisel
,
while
he
began
looking
around
for
a
hammer
.
"
It
is
n't
very
strong
,
"
he
said
,
"
I
think
I
can
kick
it
open
if
you
say
so
.
"
At
this
point
,
Mrs.
Peyton
,
most
astounded
by
these
developments
,
and
anxious
to
avoid
any
such
rough
procedure
,
exclaimed
:
"
You
can
have
a
hammer
if
you
wish
,
but
why
not
wait
and
send
for
a
key
man
?
Why
,
I
never
heard
of
such
a
thing
in
all
my
life
.
"
However
,
the
detective
having
secured
the
hammer
and
jarred
the
lock
loose
,
there
lay
revealed
in
a
small
top
crate
various
unimportant
odds
and
ends
of
Clyde
's
wardrobe
--
socks
,
collars
,
ties
,
a
muffler
,
suspenders
,
a
discarded
sweater
,
a
pair
of
not
too
good
high-top
winter
shoes
,
a
cigarette
holder
,
a
red
lacquer
ash
tray
,
and
a
pair
of
skates
.
But
in
addition
among
these
,
in
the
corner
in
one
compact
bundle
,
the
final
fifteen
letters
of
Roberta
,
written
him
from
Biltz
,
together
with
a
small
picture
of
herself
given
him
the
year
before
,
as
well
as
another
small
bundle
consisting
of
all
the
notes
and
invitations
written
him
by
Sondra
up
to
the
time
she
had
departed
for
Pine
Point
,
The
letters
written
from
there
Clyde
had
taken
with
him
--
laid
next
his
heart
.
