Whose voice?
Not Joan's.

Joan was having supper with Luttrell at twelve o'clock.

I saw her, others, too, saw her of course.

Whose voice then?
Stella's, as we say--as we know.

But if not Stella's, as Jenny Prask says--why then there is only one other woman's voice which could have given the news." "Jenny's," cried Millie with a sudden upspring of hope.
"Yes, Jenny Prask's." Millie Splay rose from her chair swiftly and rang the bell; and when Harper answered it, she said: "Will you ask Jenny to come here ?" "Now, my lady ?" "Now." Harper went out of the room and Millie turned again to her friends.
"Will you leave this to me ?" she asked.
Sir Chichester was inclined to demur.
