“Yes, once or twice,” replied the groom.
“From your master, Mr. Henderson?”
“Yes.”
“Did Miss Wray seem upset when she gave you the message for your master?”
“She seemed a bit flurried like, I thought,” answered Jack.
After this Henderson himself was called, and every eye in the room was fixed on his tall, stalwart form and handsome face as he went forward. He was cautioned in the usual manner, but with a great mental effort he said calmly enough:
“I do not wish to conceal anything.”
“You wrote the letter that your groom delivered to Miss Wray, and which was found in her room after her death?”
“I did.”
