There is also a note for Mrs.Raleigh which I want you to deliver yourself.
God bless you, Audrey.
E.T.
Audrey looked up from the letter with startled eyes and white cheeks.
What did it mean?
What had he been doing in the night while she slept?
How was it possible for him to have saved Phil?
Trembling, she sprang from her bed and began to dress.

Possibly the note to Mrs.Raleigh might explain the mystery.

She would ride round with it at once.
She went into Tudor's room before starting and found the letter for the colonel.

It was addressed and sealed.

She gave it to a _syce_ with orders to deliver it into the colonel's own hands without delay.
Then, still quivering with an apprehension she would not own, she mounted and rode away to the surgeon's bungalow.
Mrs.Raleigh received her with some surprise.
"Ah, come in!" she said kindly.
