"When does it go, and when does it return?"
"It goes on Monday morning and comes home on Saturday afternoon."
"Do you put it away on Saturday afternoon?"
"Not finally. It goes into a hot cupboard to air. Then on Monday, some time, I put it away in the proper place—sort it out."
"I see. Do you remember sorting it out and putting away the different articles in their proper places on the Monday before this little dinner-party?"
"Yes, I do."
"Did you notice the presence of any article which didn't belong to the Mallett family?"
"Yes—at least, I was doubtful."
"Doubtful, eh? Well, what was it?"
