Miss Cornelia passed through this door, glanced about the billiard room, noting that most of its windows were too high from the ground to greatly encourage a marauder.

She locked the only one that seemed to her particularly tempting--the billiard-room window on the terrace side of the house.

Then she returned to the living-room and again considered her defenses.
Three points of access from the terrace to the house--the door that led into the alcove, the French windows of the living room--the billiard-room window.

On the other side of the house there was the main entrance, the porch, the library and dining-room windows.

The main entrance led into a hall-living-room, and the main door of the living-room was on the right as one entered, the dining-room and library on the left, main staircase in front.
