"What are the names, major?" asked Arkel, anxiously.
"I'll give you the names later on, Mr. Inspector. In the meantime, be good enough to conclude your report of Battersea's confession. It interests me deeply."
"I thought it would," replied Arkel, with a look of satisfaction. "Well, Battersea wondered at the body being put into the carriage--"
"Did he know that it was Alymer's corpse?" interrupted Jen, sharply.
"He guessed as much from the circumstance that the body was carried through your grounds to the lane where the carriage was waiting. You know, major, that this tramp is rather stupid, and it is not an easy thing for him to put two and two together."
"On this occasion, however, he discovered that they made four," replied the major, dryly. "Well, the man and the woman put the body into the carriage--a closed carriage, I suppose?"
"Yes," assented Arkel, with a nod, "a brougham."
"A doctor's brougham?"
"What," cried the inspector, with a look of surprise, "has the scamp told you?"
"He has told me nothing. Please go on."
