It isn't a question ot David at all. it's me! I’ve changed- I've been away (or three — tour years. Now I've come back I ni not the same person who went away. That'a the tragedy everywhere. People coming home changed, having to readjust themselves. You can't go away and lead a different kind ot life and not change!” She atared at him, shaking her . head. He insisted: “But yes, it is so. Why did you' go away in the firs’, place?” “Why? 1 went into the Wrens. I went on service.” “Yes, yes. but why did you join the Wrens m the first place-? You were engaged to be married. You were in love with Rowley Cloade. You could have worked, could you not, as a Land girl, here tn WarmsIcy Vale.” “1 could have, I suppose, but I wanted—” “You wanted to get away. You wanted to go abroad tu see life. You wanted, perhaps, to get away from Rowley Cloade. . . . And now, you are restless, you still

want—to get away! Oh no, Mademoiselle, people do not change:" "When 1 was out East, I longed for home,” Lynn cried defensively. "Yes, yea, where you are not, there you will want to be! That will always be so. perhaps, with you. You make a pictui to yourself, you see, a picture of Lynn Marchmont coming home. ... But the picture does not come true, because the Lynn Marchmont whom you imagine is not the real Lynn Marchmont. She is the Lynn Marchmont you would like to beT’ Lynn naked bitterly: "So, according to you, I shall never be satisfied anywhere?" *T do not say that But I do say that, when you went away, you were dissatisfied with your engagement, and that now you have come back, you are still dissatisfied with your engagement." Lynn broke off a leaf and chewed it meditatively. "You’re rather a devil at knowing things, aren t you, M. Folrot?” “It is my metier," said Poirot modestly. "There is a further truth, I think, that you have not yet recognised” . Lynn aaid sharply: "You mean David, don’t you? You think I am in love with David?” “That is for you to say," murmured Poirot discreetly.

I a moment and then went on: "1 t was talking yesterday to his Brig- s adicr. He came down here when he heard David was arrested to sec what he could do. He's been • telling me about David, how in- | credibly daring he was. He said ' David was one of the bravest pco- i pic he'd ever had under him. And I yet, you know, M. Poirot, in spile i ot all he said and his praise, I had the feeling that he wasn't I sure, not absolutely sure that Da- - vid hadn't done this!” “And you are not sure, either?” Lynn gave a crooked rather pathetic smile. “No—you sec, I've never trusted David. Can you love someone you don't trust ?” •’Unfortunately, yes.” “I've always been unfair to David —bc-ause 1 didn t trust turn. I've believed quite a lot ot the beastly local gassip—hints that David wasn't David Hunter at all i —but just a boy friend of RosaIcon's. I was ashamed when 1 met the Brigadier and he talked to me ; about having known David as a boy in Ireland.”

"C’eat epatant,“ murmured Poirot, "how people can get hold of the wrong end of a stick!” "What do you mean?” "Just what 1 say. Tell me, did Mrs. Cloade, the doctor's wife, ( mean, did she ring you up on the night of the murder?" "Aunt Kathie? Yes, she did." "What about?" "Some incredible muddle she had got into over some accounts." "Did she speak from her own house?" "Why. no, actually her telephone was out of order- She had to go out to a call box." "At ten minute* past ten?" "Thereabout*. Our clock* never keep particularly good time.” "Thereabouts.” said Poirot thoughtfully. He went on delicately: "That was not the only telephone call you had that evening?" "Na" Lynn spoke shortly. "David Hunter rang you up from London?" "Yea." she flared out suddenly. "I suppose you want to know what he said?"

"Oh, indeed I should not presume—" "You’re welcome to know. He said he was going away—clearing out of my life. He said he was no good to me and that be never would run stralght-qnot even for my sake." "And since that was probably true you did not like it," aaid potent.

Don't you see, we were wishing her dead—all of us! Wishing her dead. . . . And that's awful, to wish that someone who’s never done you any harm —may die —" "Her death, of course, is the only thing that can do you any good.'* Poirot spoke in a brisk and practical tone. “You mean do us good financially? Her mere being here lias done us harm in all the ways that matter! Envying a person, resenting them, cadging off them — it isn't good for one. Now, there she is. at Purrow hank, all alone. She looks like a ghost—she looks scared to death—she looks —oh! looks as though she's going off her head. And she won't let us help! Not one of us. We've all tried. Mums asked her to come and stay with us. Aunt Prances asked here there. Even Aunt Kathic went along an J offered to be with her at Purrowbank. But she won’t have anything to do with us now and I don't blame her. She wouldn't even see Brigadier Conroy. 1 think she s ill. ill with worry and fright and misery. And we're doing nothing about it because she won't let us." •'Have you tried? You your- , self?" , "Yea," said Lynn. “1 went up there yesterday. I said, was there anything 1 could do?

Even now, if she would listen—" With sudden resolution he got to his feet. "Come, Mademoiselle," he aaid, "let us go up to Furrow bank." "You want me to com* with you?"
