"You don't remember how you were hurt ?" she asked gently.
The Unknown stared ahead of him, his eyes filming, as if he were trying to puzzle it out.
"No," he said at last.

"The first thing I remember--I was in the garage--tied." He moved his lips.

"I was--gagged--too--that's--what's the matter--with my tongue--now--Then--I got myself--free--and--got out--of a window--" Miss Cornelia made a movement to question him further.
