Grell rose from his chair with extended hand. "I rather believe that I have made a fool of myself," he said. "You have done a great deal more than you adopt credit for. I cannot thank you now, but later—I suppose I am at liberty now. I must see Ei—Lady Eileen at once."
"You will have to give evidence at the inquest," said Thornton. "That is all. The step this woman has taken will save us all a great deal of trouble. Of course, what Mr. Foyle has told you is entirely confidential."
"Of course."
"Lady Eileen is here, if you would care to see her now," said Foyle. "Will you come with me?"
Grell followed the superintendent along the corridor. At the door of his own room, Heldon Foyle stopped and knocked.
"Here you are," he said.
Robert Grell opened the door.
THE END
