It was evident that Radnor had nothing to do with it, but whether or not he suspected someone was not so clear.

His reticence in regard to the ha'nt made me think that he did.

I came South with pretty strong suspicions against the elder son, but with a mind still open to conviction.

The telegram showing that he was in Seattle at the time of the murder, proved his innocence of that, but he might still be connected with the ha'nt.

I tried the suggestion on Radnor, and his manner of taking it proved pretty conclusively that I had stumbled on the truth.
