"No, sir."
"I understand that at that time the undertaker and two of his men were in the room, as were also the two Mr. Quadrants, Mrs. Quadrant, and the doctor. Now, be as accurate as you can, and tell me in what order and when these persons left the house."
"Dr. Mortimer went away, I remember, just after Mrs. Quadrant went to her room to lie down. Then the gentlemen went in to dinner, and I served them. The undertaker and one of his men left together just as dinner was put on table. I remember that because the undertaker stood in the hall and spoke a word to Mr. Amos just as he was entering the dining-room. Mr. Amos then turned to me, and said for me to show them out. I went to the door with them, and then went back to the dining-room."
"Ah! Then one of the undertaker's men was left alone with the body?"
"I suppose so, unless he went away first. I did not see him go at all. But, come to think of it, he must have been there after the other two went away."
"Why?"
"Because, when I let out the undertaker and his man, their wagon was at the door, but they walked off and left it. After dinner it was gone, so the other man must have gone out and driven off in it."
"Very probably. Now, can you tell me this man's name? The last to leave the house, I mean?"
"I heard the undertaker call one 'Jack,' but I do not know which one."
"But you saw the two men—the assistants, I mean. Can you not describe the one that was here last?"
