"The sitting-room of our client opened by a long, low, latticed window. . . "
"The first page on the floor, the second in the window, and the third where you left it. . ."
"Your servent seems to have quite recovered. You left him in a chair, you say; which chair?' 'By the window there.'
'I see. Near this little table.'"
"'Where does that door lead to?' 'To my bedroom'."
"'What was it you put on that chair near the window?' "'Gloves,' said the young man."
"He forgot his gloves, but he caught up his shoes and darted into the bedroom. You observe that the scratch on that table is slight at one side, but deepens in the direction of the bedroom door. That in itself is enough to show us that the shoes had been drawn in that direction. . ."
