I 'The Silver Rood Mystery? [ by Lewis Allen Browne
CHAPTER XXXVIII “I shall start at the beginning then. My father was Andros Lardeau. A man of a proud family but no great wealth. There had once been much wealth. Among his few great treasures was this small Van Dyck. I was his only child, unmarried. He wanted his name to be remembered, he arranged to give the Van Dyck to the Swiss National Museum and to have with it a plate engraved setting forth that it was presented by Andros Lardeau. I was aged thirty then. I would have liked the fortune it was worth, but loved my father too greatly to tell him so.” “But how the devil—all right, go on, professor,” Harper said. “When the portrait was painted there were no such things as canvas frames. This was done on a prepared board. Some time, we could not know, it had been placed where it was damp, the board had started to weather and to crack. My father wrote out what he wanted engraved on a silver plate and entrusted me | with the painting to take it to the silversmith shop of Fritz Lutzmann—” “111 be damned!" Foxcroft exclaimed. “How could you know the scoundrel? He was much damned, you may be sure. I explained to Lutzmann how the silver braces were to be put to the back of the painting and I told him, as my father instructed me, that it Tas a worthless old painting but a family keepsake. I was to have the silver plate engraved elsewhere. Now the reason I told Lutzmann that it was worthless should be plain—” “You feared he would steal it if he knew its value,” I said. “Quite so, sir. Then it happened. 1 went for the painting and found Lutzmann in a black rage. It was, we felt sure, merely simulated. The painting was gone but that was not what enraged Lutzmann, he declared. An American had been in the shop a few times and had lured his wife away. The American and his wife were gone. He did not know the name of the American, he had no means of Anding out. Something had been dsbvered at a hotel but he didn't know the name and the hotel people iww that no young American, tall and dark, had been at the hotel in many months. Lutzmann swore to ■■ that his wife had taken some valuable necklaces of silver, the painting which, he said, she had admired, and what money he had in the shop, all while he was gone.” “Did she take anything else?” I asked. “Let me think—the painting, she had admired that, he said. Some costly silver necklaces and some money—no sir, that is all I recall. I heard him repeat it many times.” ; “A silver rood?” I suggested. “Silver rood? No. I recall noth- ! ing ever said of that We put Lutzmann in jail, to be sure. But his wife never came back and we were forced to believe his story. He was two years in jail. When it was decided that he told the truth, he was released. He disappeared at onee, : after selling hia shop. Os Fritz Lutzmann we heard no more.” j Professor Lardeau sat back and ' regarded us calmly. “How do“» that fit in with what you know ’’’ Colton asked. i

“Partly," I told him, unwilling to . admit too much. L "Now, Professor,” I said, “how in t the world did you ever learn where ! the Van Dyck was?" “That is the marvel—the great i accident, or perhaps the will of God. ; Who knows? I deal in paintings of , value. I knew that a Mr. Montieth : had bought from Nodstrand, which I you may verify, a small Corot. I I knew where I could get another of I the same size and general character. I I called on him to see if I could in- • terest him. He wasn’t interested. I saw. on the wall, the long lost Van Dyck. It is a miracle that I did not , swoon, but I became crafty, I pretended not to notice it at first. Then I asked him where he bought it He said that it was given to him and that while it was only a copy, he rather liked it. He said that a Mr. Ingram had told him it was a copy. “Well, gentlemen, not to seem too anxious, I merely said I would buy it for five hundred. He said it wasn’t worth more than three but he wouldn't sell. I came back again oh the pretext of trying to sell the Corot, and this time I offered him much more money for the painting. He laughed and said he wouldn’t cheat me.” "Why didn’t you tell him the truth, if you were so sure?” Foxcroft wanted to know. “I was sure. I took it down, I saw the silver braces on the back that Lutzmann had affixed. As I have said, I came back the third time prepared to offer more and, if that failed, tel! him the story of that, Van Dyck and assure him that it was a stolen painting, that he must give it up or the Swiss Museum people, or the actual government, would bring suit. He was asleep, I preferred to avoid delay, court fights, and the possibility that the painting would never hang in the museum over the name df my beloved father, and so I took it. I say, 1 did not steal it, for one cannot steal what is one’s own.” "Got any proof?” Harper asked, rather gruffly aa the professor sat back as though he had finished. "Plenty,” Mr. Colton said. “All that Professor Lardeau has told you I have verified. I have a copy of the letter from Andros Lardeau notifying the museum authorities that he was giving them the Van Dyck. I have the police records of the arrest and imprisonment of this Fritz Lutzmann. There is the will of Andros Lardeau leaving all to his son, the professor, here, with the stipulation that if ever the stolen Van Dyck was found it was to go to the museum.” "That story may be all on the level, professor,” said Harper, “except that in your frantic desire to get the painting you killed Montieth.” “Shonld I, Henri Lardeau, stain with a foul crime, the history of the painting my beloved father had longed to see hanging in the museum ?” “Why didn’t you send us word, when you got back, explain why you took the painting?” I asked. “I gave it grave consideration, sir. But there was no hint that anyone had missed the painting. Perhaps, I thought, no one will ever miss it. It is better to let it rest as it is.”

o "Reasonable enough," Foxeroft said. I saw him wink at Harper. n “Is it—might I ask if this Mr. e Montieth was the young American who—well, stole Lutzmann'a young t and pretty wife?” [. “Mrs. Lutzmann was not stolen,” f I explained, “she was beaten and 8 abused, and she prevailed enon Mr. , Montieth and his married sister to [ get her to America. Out of gratitude f she gave him the painting she had taken along. There was no affair . there, we can be assured.” [ “That would explain it I had , told Lutzmann the lie, that the t painting wag worthless. Then, she, . Mrs. Lutzmann would have told Mr. i Montieth that it was worthless. To , him that would mean that it was • I copy. A friend who thought he knew , something but was evidently a fool ’ about sueh matters, also told him it was a copy. I was hot-headed. Had ' I used judgment, told Mr. Montieth r the history of that painting, he would have turned it over as soon ; as he verified my story.” ’ “But you waltzed iii on the porch | and stole tha thing and Gerard ' Montieth is found stabbed. How did you know about that silver rood, ; Professor?” "I have told you,” he answered, looking squarely at Harper, “that I > knew nothing of a silver rood.” "What about this silver rood?” Colton asked Foxcroft. ' “It was a knife, disguised as a ; rood.” • “I never in my life heard of such a sacrilege—l never heard of a : crucifix hiding a deadly weapon 1" Lardeau was either terribly shocked or doing some good acting. “Did you see anyone while there stealing—pardon me—while getting the painting?” I inquired. “A gardener who told ma not to waken Mr. Montieth, and, when I came out, a man coming around the corner, a tall man. Old, I think, that is, grayish hair down to here.” He indicated a spot on his cheek at the bottom of his ear. Foxcroft, Sergeant Harper and myself stared at Lardeau and at each other. Here was, if he told the truth, an entirely new lead. Foxcroft described Howard Griswold with excellent precision. “No, no—not at all a young man. Grayish hair, dark clothes, a soft dark hat over his eyes. Os that I am sure.” “You had the painting, what did you do?” I asked the professor. “I had it under my coat. I saw the man at the corner of the house beyond the porch. He must have seen me, for he turned back. I was grateful, and hurried away rapid“He told me the same thing, over in Zurich,” Colton said. “Are you trying to help him?” Harper rasped, evidently quite sore. “After all, Sergeant, we sent my cousin over knowing that whatever he did would be on the level and in our behalf,” Foxcroft rebuked. Sure, sure—no offence. We’ve got to know everything. If I were in the professor’s place I would certainly think up something like that—seeing another man there.” “I saw him. He was as I described.” Lardeau declared, with grave emphasis. (To be continued) rismihl t>7 Lwo Allas Brawna DUtrtbutad bj Aim Vaaluraa SmAx-aia Inc
