When
supper
was
over
,
though
,
and
Lady
Glenarvan
,
and
Mary
,
and
Robert
had
retired
,
the
Major
detained
his
companions
a
little
,
and
said
,
"
They
have
found
out
the
perpetrators
of
the
crime
on
the
Sandhurst
railroad
.
"
"
And
are
they
arrested
?
"
asked
Ayrton
,
eagerly
.
"
No
,
"
replied
McNabbs
,
without
apparently
noticing
the
EMPRESSMENT
of
the
quartermaster
--
an
EMPRESSMENT
which
,
moreover
,
was
reasonable
enough
under
the
circumstances
.
"
So
much
the
worse
,
"
replied
Ayrton
.
"
Well
,
"
said
Glenarvan
,
"
who
are
the
authors
of
the
crime
?
"
"
Read
,
"
replied
the
Major
,
offering
Glenarvan
a
copy
of
the
Australian
and
New
Zealand
Gazette
,
"
and
you
will
see
that
the
inspector
of
the
police
was
not
mistaken
.
"
Glenarvan
read
aloud
the
following
message
:
SYDNEY
,
Jan.
2
,
1866
.
It
will
be
remembered
that
on
the
night
of
the
29th
or
30th
of
last
December
there
was
an
accident
at
Camden
Bridge
,
five
miles
beyond
the
station
at
Castlemaine
,
on
the
railway
from
Melbourne
to
Sandhurst
.
The
night
express
,
11.45
,
dashing
along
at
full
speed
,
was
precipitated
into
the
Loddon
River
.
Camden
Bridge
had
been
left
open
.
The
numerous
robberies
committed
after
the
accident
,
the
body
of
the
guard
picked
up
about
half
a
mile
from
Camden
Bridge
,
proved
that
this
catastrophe
was
the
result
of
a
crime
.
