Roberts' housekeeper on their arrival at his new home on Long Island.

The strip was picked up at the museum in the room where Mrs.Taylor spent an hour or so immediately upon leaving the scene of crime.

With her at the time was the young lady who had kindly offered to look after her and two or three men directly associated with the museum, of whom Mr.Roberts was one.

These and these only.
