Lives, when in city, at Hotel Gorham.
Known too well for any description of himself or character to be necessary here.

If he has a fault, or rather a weakness, it is his extreme pride in the museum and his own conduct of its many affairs.
As on the evening before, Mr.Gryce lingered longest over one name.

He was still brooding anxiously over it when the telephone rang at his elbow and he was called up from Headquarters.

Cablegrams had been received from London and Paris in acknowledgment of those sent, and in both these cablegrams promises were made of a full examination into the antecedents of Madame Duclos and her companion, Miss Willetts.
That was all.

No further news regarding them from any quarter.
