Excerpt: ...your sister into the care of the shrewdest man in London. Whereat the object of this quite unexpected eulogy found himself becoming covered with modest confusion.

He has a cottage and a garden of his own with a greenhouse, and the business cost me the price of a pound of tomatoes. Was it-a profitable investment? As tomatoes, yes; as information, no. The old fellow had the fatal disadvantage from our point of view of labouring under a grievance. A few weeks ago Creake told him that he would not require him again as he was going to do his own gardening in future. That is something, Louis. If only Creake was going to poison his wife with hyoscyamine and bury her, instead of...
