I
took
,
with
a
strange
curiosity
,
the
letter
which
he
handed
to
me
.
As
a
barrister
I
had
had
,
of
course
,
odd
experiences
now
and
then
,
including
sudden
demands
upon
my
time
;
but
never
anything
like
this
.
I
stepped
back
into
the
hall
,
closing
the
door
to
,
but
leaving
it
ajar
;
then
I
switched
on
the
electric
light
.
The
letter
was
directed
in
a
strange
hand
,
a
woman
's
.
It
began
at
once
without
"
dear
sir
"
or
any
such
address
:
12
"
You
said
you
would
like
to
help
me
if
I
needed
it
;
and
I
believe
you
meant
what
you
said
.
The
time
has
come
sooner
than
I
expected
.
I
am
in
dreadful
trouble
,
and
do
not
know
where
to
turn
,
or
to
whom
to
apply
.
An
attempt
has
,
I
fear
,
been
made
to
murder
my
Father
;
though
,
thank
God
,
he
still
lives
.
But
he
is
quite
unconscious
.
The
doctors
and
police
have
been
sent
for
;
but
there
is
no
one
here
whom
I
can
depend
on
.
Come
at
once
if
you
are
able
to
;
and
forgive
me
if
you
can
.
I
suppose
I
shall
realise
later
what
I
have
done
in
asking
such
a
favour
;
but
at
present
I
can
not
think
.
Come
!
Come
at
once
!

TRELAWNY

Pain
and
exultation
struggled
in
my
mind
as
I
read
;
but
the
mastering
thought
was
that
she
was
in
trouble
and
had
called
on
me
--
me
!
My
dreaming
of
her
,
then
,
was
not
altogether
without
a
cause
.
I
called
out
to
the
groom
:
15
"
Wait
!
I
shall
be
with
you
in
a
minute
!
"
Then
I
flew
upstairs
.
16
A
very
few
minutes
sufficed
to
wash
and
dress
;
and
we
were
soon
driving
through
the
streets
as
fast
as
the
horses
could
go
.
It
was
market
morning
,
and
when
we
got
out
on
Piccadilly
there
was
an
endless
stream
of
carts
coming
from
the
west
;
but
for
the
rest
the
roadway
was
clear
,
and
we
went
quickly
.
I
had
told
the
groom
to
come
into
the
brougham
with
me
so
that
he
could
tell
me
what
had
happened
as
we
went
along
.
He
sat
awkwardly
,
with
his
hat
on
his
knees
as
he
spoke
.
17
"
Miss
Trelawny
,
sir
,
sent
a
man
to
tell
us
to
get
out
a
carriage
at
once
;
and
when
we
was
ready
she
come
herself
and
gave
me
the
letter
and
told
Morgan
--
the
coachman
,
sir
--
to
fly
.
She
said
as
I
was
to
lose
not
a
second
,
but
to
keep
knocking
till
someone
come
.

Yes
,
I
know
,
I
know
--
you
told
me
!
What
I
want
to
know
is
,
why
she
sent
for
me
.
What
happened
in
the
house
?
"
19
"
I
do
n't
quite
know
myself
,
sir
;
except
that
master
was
found
in
his
room
senseless
,
with
the
sheets
all
bloody
,
and
a
wound
on
his
head
.
He
could
n't
be
waked
nohow
.
Twas
Miss
Trelawny
herself
as
found
him
.
