The inpector Lee!

"Mr. Lee, my lord."

Lord Edward stood up immediately, with genuine eagerness. "My dear man Lee, I'm so happy to see you. What a beastly foggy night ot is out there. Isn't it? Bulter, some more of that amazing coffee please and another glass and the cigars. Lee, I really hope you're full of crime—nothing less than 27 arson or murder will do for us this night. 'On such a night as this—' Bulter and I were just sitting down to carouse. I've got a Dante, and a Caxton folio that is practically rare, at Sir Ralph Brocklebury's sale. Bulter, who did the bargaining, is going to have a lens which does all kinds of wonderful things with its eyes shut, and so you see... nothing less will do for us, Lee. It's mine at present, but we're going shares in it. Property of the firm. Won't you join us? You really should put something in the jack-pot. Perhaps you have a body. Oh, do have a body. Every body welcome.

Not a bit of it. He tips a glassy wink to yours truly and yours truly reads the truth."

"Ah," said Lee,"I knew you'd been round to Queen Carolina Mansions. So have I, and met James, and he told me thet he had seen you. He was angry, too. Unwarrantable interference, he calls it, on your part."
