The Adventure of the Priory School with The McClure Newspaper Syndicate. By SIR ARTHUR CONAN DOYLE CopyTlgtt- 1921. by Harper & Bros. Published by special arrangement
"I will conceal nothing from you. I agree with you that complete frank?;&brPo uation to which James' folly and jeal-j ousy have reduced us. When I wis a very young man, Mr. Holmes, I loved I with such a love as comes only once j in a lifetime. I offered the lady mar riage, but she refused it on tne grounds that such a match might mar my career. Had she lived, I would certainly never have married any one else. She died, and left this one child, whom Tor her sake I have cherished and cared for. I could not acknowl edge the paternity to the world, but Jj gave him thi best of educations, ana since he came to manhood I have kept him near my person. He surprised my secret, and has presumed ever since upon the claim which he has upon me, and upon his power of provoking a scandal which would be abhorrent to me. His presence had something to do with the unhappy i issue cf mv marriage. Above all. he hated my young legitimate heir from the first with a persistent hatred. You may well ask me why, under these circumstances, I still kept James un der my roof. I answer that it was be-1 cause 1 could see his mother's face in his, and that for her dear sake there was no end to my long-suffering. All her pretty ways too there was not cne of them which he could not suggest and bring back to my memory. I could not send him away. But I feared so much lest he should do Arthur that is, Lord Saltire a mischief, that I dispatched him for safety to Dr. Huxtable's school. "James came into contact with this fellow Hayes because the man was a tenant of mine, and James acted as agent. The fellow was a rascal from the beginning, but, in some extraordinary way. James became intimate with him. He had always a taste for low company. When James determined to kidnap Lord Saltire, it was of this man's service that he availed hlmrelf. You remember that 1 wrote to Arthur upon that last day. Well, James opened the letter and inserted a note asking Arthur to meet him in a little wood called the Ragged Shaw. which is near to the school. He used the Duchess' name, and in that way got the boy to come. The evening James bicycled over I am telling you what he has himself confessed to me and he told Arthur, whom he met in the wood, that his mother longed to see him, that she was awaiting him on the moor, and that if he would come back into the wood at midnight he would find a man with a horse, who would take him to her. Poor Arthur fell into the trap. He came to the appointment, and found this fellowHayes with a led pony. Arthur mounted, and they set off together. It appears though this James only heard yesterday that they were pursued, that Hayes struck the pursuer with his stick, and that the man died of his injuries. Hayes brought Arthur to his public-house, the Fighting Cock, where he was confined in an upper room, under the care of Mrs. Hayes, who is a kindly woman, but entirely under the control of her brutal husband. "Well, Mr. Holmes, that was the state of affairs when I first saw you two days ago. 1 had no more idea of the truth than you. You will ask me what was James' motive In doing such a deed. I answer that there was a great deal which was unreasoning and fanatical in the hatred which he bore my heir. In his view he should himself have been heir of all my es tates, and he deeply resented those social laws w'aich made it impossible. K t the same time, he had a definite motive also. He was eager that 1 should break the entail and he was of opinion that it lay in my power to do so. He intended to make a bargain with me to restore Arthur if I would break the entail, and so make it possible for the estate to be left to him by will. He knew well that I should never invoke the aid of the police against him. I say that he would have proposed such a bargain to me; but he did not actually do so, for events moved too quickly for him, and he had not time to put his plans into practice. "What brought all his wicked i scheme to wreck was your discovery of this man Heidegger's dead body. James was seized with horror at the news. It came to us yesterday, as we sat together in this study. Dr. Huxtable had sent a telegram. James was so overwhelmed with grief and j agitation that, my suspicions, which ! had never been entirely absent, rose instantly to a certaintv, and I taxed
; him with the deed. He made a com-j dc Ages." j plete voluntary confession. Then he j Holmes opened the case, and moist- : implored me to keep his secret for j eninS nis finger, he passed it along ! three days longer, so as to give histlie shoe. A thin film of recent mud
wretched accomplice a chance of sav j ing his guilty life. I yielded as I I have always yielded to his prayers, and instantly James hurried off to the Fighting Cock to warn Hayes and give! him the means of flight. I could not go there by daylight without provoking comment, but as soon as night fell I hurried off to see my dear Arthur. I found him safe and well, but horriLEGAL NOTICE XOTICE OF APPOINTMENT ' State of Indiana. Wayne County, ss.: Estate of Henry Supple, deceased. !

fied beyond expression by the dread fuj deed he had wllnessed. In defer t0 my Pr0mlse' -uch against my will, I consented to leave him there for three days, under the charge ol x. Hayes, since it was evident thai it was impossible to inform the police where he was without telling there also who was the murderer, and 1 could not see how that murderer could be punished without ruin to my unfortunate James. Tou asked for frank ness, Mr Holmes, and I have taker you at your word, for I have now tolc you everything without an attempt at circumlocution or concealment. D" you in your turn be as frank with me.' "I will," said Holmes. "In the firs place, your Grace, I am bound to tel! you that you have placed yourself in a most serious position in the eyes oi the law. You have condoned a felony and you have aided the escape of a murderer, for I cannot doubt that any money which was taken by Jame3 Wil der to aid his accomplice in his flight came from your Grace's purse." The Duke bowed his -assent. "This is. indeed, a most serious matter. Even more culpable in my opinion, your Grace, is your attitude towards your vounger son. You leave him in this den for three days." -"Under solemn promises " "What are promises to such people as these? You have no guarantee that he will not be spirited away again. To humor your guilty elder son, you have exposed your innocent younger son to imminent and unnecessary danger. It was a most unjustifiable action." The proud lord of Holdernesse "as not accustomed to be so rated in hi? own ducal hall. The blood flushed into his high forehead, but his conscience held him dumb. "I will help you, but on one condition only. It is that you ring for the footman, and let me give such orders as I like." Without a word, the Duke pressed the electric bell. A servant entered. "You will be glad to hear," said Holmes, "that your young master is found. It is the Duke's desire thai the carriage shall go at once to th Fighting Cock .Inn and bring Lord Saltire home " "Now," said Holmes, when the rejoicing lackey had disappeared, "having secured The future, we can afford to be lenient with the past. .1 am not in an official position, and there is no reason, so long as the ends of justice are served, why I should disclose all that I know. As to Hayes, I .say nothing. The gallows awaits him, and I would do nothing to save him from it. What he will divulge I cannot tell, but I have no doubt that your Grac could make him understand that it i? to his interest to be silent. From the police point of view he will have kidnapped the boy for the purpose of ransom. If they do not themselves find it out, I see no reason why I should prompt them to tahe a broader point of view. I would warn your Grace, however, that the continued present-? of Mr. James Wilder in your household can only lead to misfortune." "I understand that, Mr. Holmes, and it is already fettled that he shall leave me forever, and go to seek his fortune in Australia." " "In that case, your Grace, . since you have yourself stated that any unhappiness in your married life was caused by his presence, I would suggest that you make such amends as you can to the Duchess, and that you try to resume those relations which have been so unhappily interrupted." "That also I have .arranged, Mr. Holmes. I wrote to the Duchess this morning." "In that case," said Holmes, rising. "I think that my friend and I can congratulate ourselves upon several most happy results from our little visit to the North. There is one other small point upon which I desire some light. This fellow Hayes had shod his horses with shoes which counterfeited the tracks of cows. Was it from Mr. Wilder that he learned so extraordinary a device?" The Duke stood in thought for a moment, with a look of intense surprise on his face. Then he opened a door and showed us into a large room furnished as a museum. He led the way to a glass case in a corner, and pointed to the inscription. "These shoes," it ran, "were dug up in the moat of Holdernesse Hall.
