"The Bic Four” a sS'

CHAPTER XIX “Yes.” said Poirot, nodding his head. “There is Gerald Paynter, as you say. He is his uncle’s heir. He was dining out that night, though.” “He might have got at some of the ingredients of the curry,” I suggested. “And he would take care to be out. so as not to have to partake of the dish.” 'I think my reasoning rather impressed Poirot. He looked at me with a more respectful attention than he had given me so far. “He returns late," I mused, pursuing a hypothetical case. “Sees the light in his uncle’s study, enters, and, finding his plan has failed, thrusts the old man down into the fire.” “Mr. Paynter, who was a fairly hearty man of fifty-five, would not permit himself to be burnt to death without a struggle, Hastings. Such a recaus traction is not feasible.” ’‘Well, Poirot,” I cried, “we’re nearly there, I fancy. Let us hear what you think?” Poirot threw me a smile, swelled cut his chest, and began in a pompous manner. “Assuming murder, the question at once arises, why choose that particular method? I can think of only one reason—to confuse identity, the faee being charred beyond recognition.” “What?” I cried. “You think—" “A moment’s patience, Hastings. I was going on to say that I examine that theory. Is there any ground for believing that the body is not that of Mr. Paynter? Is there any one else whose body it possibly could be? I examine these two questions and finally I answer them both in the negative.” “Oh!” I said, rather disappointed. "And then?” » Poirot’* eyes twinkled a little. “And then I say tc myself, ‘since there is here something that I do not understand, it would be well that I should investigate the matter. I must not permit myself to be wholly engrossed by the Big Four.’ Ah! we are just arriving. My little clothes brush, where does it hide itself? Here it is-—brush me down. I pray you, my friend, and then I will perform the same service for you.” “Yes,” said Poirot thoughtfully, as he put away the brush, “one must not permit oneself to be obsessed by one idea. I have been in danger of that. Figure to yourself , my friend, that even here, in this case, I am in danger of it. Those two lines you mentioned, a downstroke and a line at right angles to it, what are they but the beginning of a 4?” “Good gracious, Poirot,” I cried, laughing. “Is it not absurd? I see the hand of the Big Four everywhere. It is well to employ one’s wits in a totally different milieu. Ah! there is Japp come to meet iis.” The Scotland Yard Inspector was, indeed, wailing on the platform, and greeted us warmly. “Well. Moosior Poirot, this is good. Thought you’d like to be let in on this. Tip-top mystery, isn’t it?” I read this aright as showing Japp to be completely ponded and hoping to pick up a pointer from Poirot. Japp had a car waiting, and we drove up in it to Croftlands. It was a square, white house, quite unpretentious, and covered with creepers, including the starry yellow jasmine. Japp looked up at it as we did. “Must have been balmy to go writing that, poor old cove,” he remarked. “Hallucinations, perhaps, and thought he was outside.” Poirot was smiling at him. “ Which was it, my good Japp?” he asked; “accident or murder?” The Inspector seemed a little embarrass' -d ny the question. “Wei!, if it weren’t for that curry business, I’d be for accident every

HORSE SHOW AT ' MUNCIE SUNDAY Free Fall Horse Show To Be Held At Muncie Fairgrounds I Muncie. Ind . Oct. 9. Eighty six ■ horses and more than 199 riders I have already made entry in the Muncie free fall horse show which: will be held at the fair grounds in ■ Muncie. Sunday. I This will be an all day show. i starting soon after 9 o'clock on | Sunday morning and continuing ; I until 5 o'clock in the afternoon. : The program Includes 26 events ' with a variety that would please every lover of the light horse breads. . There are four horsemanship ! I classes, divided by sex and age as 1

time. There’s no sense in holding ; a live man’s head in the fire—why, ’ he’d scream the house down.” “Ah!” said Poirot in a low voice. ’ “Fool that I have been. Triple im- , becile! You are a cleverer man than I am, Japp.” Japp was rather taken aback by the compliment—Poirot being usually given to exclusive self praise. He reddened and muttered something about there being a lot of doubt about that. He led the way through the house to the room where the tragedy had occurred—Mr. Paynter’s study. It was a wide, low room, with booklined walls and big leather armchairs. Poirot looked across at once to the window which gave upon a gravelled terrace. “The window, it was unlatched?” he asked. “That’s the whole point, of course. When the doctor left this room, he merely closed the door behind him. The next morning it was found locked. Who locked it? Mr. Paynter? Ah Ling declares that the window was closed and bolted. Dr. Quentin, on the other hand, has an impression that it was closed, but not fastened, but he won’t swear either way. If he could, it would make a great difference. If the man uos murdered, some one entered the room either through the door or the window—if through the door, it was an inside job; if through the window, it might have been any one. First thing when they had broken the door down, they flung the window open, and the housemaid who did it thinks that it wasn’t fastened, but she’s a precious bad witness—will rßitcnsber anything you ask her to!” “What about the key?” “There you are again. It was on the floor among the wreckage of the door. Might have fallen from the keyhole, might have been dropped there by one of the people who entered, might have been slipped underneath the door from the outside.” “In fact everything is ‘might have been’?” “You’ve hit it, Moosior Poirot That’s just what it is.” Poirot was looking round him, frowning unhappily. “I cannot see light,” he murmured. “Just now—yes, I got a gleam, but now all is darkness once more. I have not the clue—the motive.” “Young Gerald Paynter had a pretty good motive,” remarked Japp grimly. “He’s been wild enough in his time, I can tell you. And extravagant. You know what artists are, too—no morals at all.” Poirot did not pay much attention to Japp’s sweeping strictures on the artistic temperament. Instead he smiled knowingly. “My good Japp, is it possible that you throw the mud in my eyes? I know well enough that it is the Chinaman you suspect. But you are so artful. Y<ra want me to help you—and yet you drag the red kipper across the trail.” Japp burst out laughing. “That’s you all over, Mr. Poirot. Yes, I’d bet on the Chink, I’ll admit it now. It stands to reason that it was he who doctored the curry, and if he’d try once in an evening to get his master out of the way, he’d try twice.” “I wonder if he would,” said Poirot sofUy. “But it’s the motive that beats me. Some heathen revenge or other, I suppose.” “I wonder,” said Poirot again. “There has been no robbery? Nothing has disappeared? No jewelry, or money, or papers?” “No—that is, not exactly.” I pricked up my ears; so did Poirot. “There’s been no robbery, I ’ mean,” explained Japp. “But the ’ old boy was writing a book of some

DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT FRIDAY, OCTOBER 9, 19.36.

I follows: Class one—for children under 12 years of age; Class two — For girls 12 to 16 j : years of age; Class three —For boys 12 to 16; years of age, and Class sou ladies. I There are two classes for threei gaited pleasure horses, divided by ! size, and there is an open class for three-guited saddle horses that will be filled with show horses. The class for pleasure horses will show at three gaits, where horses with manes and tails will be allowed. There is one open class for fivegaited saddle horses that has al- | ready attracted entries from sev? ; eral prominent stables. Three mounted games, the water race, the bending race, and the potato race, will give small, handy ponies a place to do their best. These games have already attracted a record number of entries. There will be classes for saddle ‘ ponies, divided according to height.

j sort. We only knew about it this ■, morning when there was a letter from the publishers asking about , the manuscript. It was just completed, it seems. Young Paynter j and I have searched high and low, but can’t find a trace of it—he must ( have hidden it away somewhere.” . Poirot’s eyes were shining with r the green light I knew so well, j “How was it called, this book?” t he asked. • "The Hidden Hand in China, I , think it was called.” j “Aha!” said Poirot, with almost t a gasp. Then he said quickly, “Let . me see the Chinaman, Ah Ling.” The Chinaman was sent for and appeared, shuffling along, with his , eyes cast down, and his pigtail t swinging. Hisimpassivefaceshowed no trace of any kind of emotion. > “Ah Ling,” said Poirot, “are you sorry your master is dead?” f “I welly sorry. He good master.” j “You know who kill him?” “I not know. I tell pleeceman if , I know.” The questions and answers went i on. With the same impassive face. Ah Ling described how he had made ■ the curry. The cook had had nothing to do with it, he declared, no I hand had touched it but his own. I I wondered if he saw where his ad- , mission was leading him. He stuck . to it too, that the window to the , garden was bolted that evening. If i it was open in the morning, his . master must have opened it himself. At last Poirot dismissed him. , “That will do, Ah Ling.” Just as . the Chinaman had got to the door, i Poirot recalled him. “And you know nothing, you say, of the Yel- . low Jasmine?" “No, what should I know?” “Nor yet of the sign that was , written underneath it?” , i Poirot leant forward as he spoke, ■ and quickly traced something on the dust of a little table. I was near i enough to see it before he rubbed it . out A down stroke, a line at right angles, and then a second line down which completed a big 4. The effect on the Chinaman was electrical For one moment his face was a mask of terror. Then, as suddenly, it was impassive again, and repeating his grave disclaimer, he with- 1 , drew. -s t Japp departed in search of young Paynter, and Poirot and I were left I , alone together. f “The Big Four, Hastings,” cried j Poirot. “Once again, the Big Four. Paynter was a great traveller. In j , his book there was doubtless some j i vital information concerning the i doings of Number One, Li Chang . Yen, the head and brains of the Big r i Four.” i * “But who—how—” ' £ i “Hush, here they come.” i Gerald Paynter was an amiable, 1 • rather weak-looking young man. 1 He had a soft brown beard, and a : peculiar flowing tie. He answered I 1 I Poirot’s questions readily enough. | 1 • “I dined out with some neigh- i < i hours of ours, the Wycherlya,” he ] i explained. “What time did I get j I home? Oh, about eleven. I had a latch-key, you know. All the ser- , vants had gone to bed, and I natu- j . rally thought my uncle had done the t same. As a matter of fact, I did 1 ; think I caught sight of that soft- ‘ I footed Chinese beggar Ah Ling just ; whisking round the corner of the 1 r hall, but I fancy I was mistaken.” < “When did you last see your I uncle, Mr. Paynter? I mean before you came to live with him.” , “Oh! not since I was a kid of ten. ; . He and his brother (my father) quarrelled, you know.” < “But he found you again with J ’ very little trouble, did he not? In spite of all the years that had ’ passed?” “Yes, it was quite a bit of luek mv 1 seeing the lawyer’s advertisement.” Poirot asked no more questions.
