Shland then gave an exact account of what had taken place and Netherby
ended by saying "you see Wilson if you had shut the chest when I told
you and concealed nothing I should have been the last to call the
police, but when it came to robbing the chest in justice to Miss Winston
I had to do my duty." Wilson was too utterly dazed to say a word, and in
a few moments Netherby, not liking to leave the house sent a messenger
to portman Square. In a couple of hours a cab drew up at the door, and
out got Lawrence Lincarrol, Lord Beaufort, and a short thin man, who
turned out to be Cyril Sheene's solicitor. On hearing the story, Lord
Beaufort said that Helen was to be taken at once to his house and that
Marshland should accompany her. Accordingly the unconscious girl was
lifted into the brougham and accompanied by the old servant drove off.
"Your things shall be sent on" said Lord Beaufort to Marshland as he
helped her into the cab "and a trained nurse shall be got for Miss
Winston, meanwhile my servants quite understand what is to be done."
Then the cab drove off and Lord Beaufort entered the office. Lawrence
and Mr. Spriggs (the solicitor) were both busy interviewing Netherby,
who now that he had done his duty and shown much good sence had relapsed
into his old nervous state. We had here better describe Lord Beaufort
and Mr. Spriggs. Lord Beaufort was a half Spaniar
