He
at
once
entered
on
the
necessary
investigations
without
the
slightest
result
so
far
as
Ferrari
was
concerned
.
Nobody
had
seen
him
.
Nobody
appeared
to
have
been
taken
into
his
confidence
.
Nobody
knew
anything
(
that
is
to
say
,
anything
of
the
slightest
importance
)
even
about
persons
so
distinguished
as
Lord
and
Lady
Montbarry
.
It
was
reported
that
her
ladyship
s
English
maid
had
left
her
,
before
the
disappearance
of
Ferrari
,
to
return
to
her
relatives
in
her
own
country
,
and
that
Lady
Montbarry
had
taken
no
steps
to
supply
her
place
.
His
lordship
was
described
as
being
in
delicate
health
.
He
lived
in
the
strictest
retirement
nobody
was
admitted
to
him
,
not
even
his
own
countrymen
.
A
stupid
old
woman
was
discovered
who
did
the
housework
at
the
palace
,
arriving
in
the
morning
and
going
away
again
at
night
.
212
She
had
never
seen
the
lost
courier
she
had
never
even
seen
Lord
Montbarry
,
who
was
then
confined
to
his
room
.
Her
ladyship
,
a
most
gracious
and
adorable
mistress
,
was
in
constant
attendance
on
her
noble
husband
.
There
was
no
other
servant
then
in
the
house
(
so
far
as
the
old
woman
knew
)
but
herself
.
The
meals
were
sent
in
from
a
restaurant
.
My
lord
,
it
was
said
,
disliked
strangers
.
My
lord
s
brother
-
in
-
law
,
the
Baron
,
was
generally
shut
up
in
a
remote
part
of
the
palace
,
occupied
(
the
gracious
mistress
said
)
with
experiments
in
chemistry
.
The
experiments
sometimes
made
a
nasty
smell
.
A
doctor
had
latterly
been
called
in
to
his
lordship
an
Italian
doctor
,
long
resident
in
Venice
.
Inquiries
being
addressed
to
this
gentleman
(
a
physician
of
undoubted
capacity
and
respectability
)
,
it
turned
out
that
he
also
had
never
seen
Ferrari
,
having
been
summoned
to
the
palace
(
as
his
memorandum
book
showed
)
at
a
date
subsequent
to
the
courier
s
disappearance
.
The
doctor
described
Lord
Montbarry
s
malady
as
bronchitis
.
So
far
,
there
was
no
reason
to
feel
any
anxiety
,
though
the
attack
was
a
sharp
one
.
If
alarming
symptoms
should
appear
,
he
had
arranged
with
her
ladyship
to
call
in
another
physician
.
For
the
rest
,
it
was
impossible
to
speak
too
highly
of
my
lady
;
night
and
day
,
she
was
at
her
lord
s
bedside
.
213
With
these
particulars
began
and
ended
the
discoveries
made
by
Ferrari
s
courier
-
friend
.
The
police
were
on
the
look
-
out
for
the
lost
man
and
that
was
the
only
hope
which
could
be
held
forth
for
the
present
,
to
Ferrari
s
wife
.

What
do
you
think
of
it
,
Miss
?
the
poor
woman
asked
eagerly
.
215
What
would
you
advise
me
to
do
?
216
Agnes
was
at
a
loss
how
to
answer
her
;
it
was
an
effort
even
to
listen
to
what
Emily
was
saying
.
The
references
in
the
courier
s
letter
to
Montbarry
the
report
of
his
illness
,
the
melancholy
picture
of
his
secluded
life
had
reopened
the
old
wound
.
She
was
not
even
thinking
of
the
lost
Ferrari
;
her
mind
was
at
Venice
,
by
the
sick
man
s
bedside
.
217
I
hardly
know
what
to
say
,
she
answered
.
I
have
had
no
experience
in
serious
matters
of
this
kind
.

Do
you
think
it
would
help
you
,
Miss
,
if
you
read
my
husband
s
letters
to
me
?
There
are
only
three
of
them
they
won
t
take
long
to
read
.
219
Agnes
compassionately
read
the
letters
.
220
They
were
not
written
in
a
very
tender
tone
.
Dear
Emily
,
and
Yours
affectionately
these
conventional
phrases
,
were
the
only
phrases
of
endearment
which
they
contained
.
In
the
first
letter
,
Lord
Montbarry
was
not
very
favourably
spoken
of
:
We
leave
Paris
to
-
morrow
.
I
don
t
much
like
my
lord
.
He
is
proud
and
cold
,
and
,
between
ourselves
,
stingy
in
money
matters
.
I
have
had
to
dispute
such
trifles
as
a
few
centimes
in
the
hotel
bill
;
and
twice
already
,
some
sharp
remarks
have
passed
between
the
newly
-
married
couple
,
in
consequence
of
her
ladyship
s
freedom
in
purchasing
pretty
tempting
things
at
the
shops
in
Paris
.
"
I
can
t
afford
it
;
you
must
keep
to
your
allowance
.
"
She
has
had
to
hear
those
words
already
.
For
my
part
,
I
like
her
.
She
has
the
nice
,
easy
foreign
manners
she
talks
to
me
as
if
I
was
a
human
being
like
herself
.
