“But suppose the racket was broken before it went down—what then?”
“I don’t know what you mean.”
“Didn’t you see Gunseyt near the elevator just before you and Watson and I ran out on the open deck?”
“Was that Gunseyt? I saw a man there.”
“And didn’t you see him break a racket over his knee?”
“Yes, I did,” said Glennon, “and I wondered what he was doing that for.”
“Well,” continued Guy, “now that you know who he was, whose racket do you suppose he had?”
“Why? Did he have mine?”
“That’s my guess. Do you know how he got it?”
“I saw him near my stateroom when I ran out to see what was the matter. I left my door open in my hurry, I suppose. I know I didn’t lock it.”
