"Thank you, Tom; I am glad you have come."
"How are you this morning? Is your mind clear?"
"Fairly. Why?"
"I must have some conversation with you about last night. Everything is confusion. I can explain nothing."
"Neither can I."
He looked at me keenly and sighed. "Were you with Kaffar last night after he had so abominably insulted you and left the house?"
"I do not know."
"Do you know where he is now?"
"No."
"No idea whatever?"
