Will you be good enough to tell him, you know more about her movements than I do." "As far as I know, sir," said Fisher deferentially, "she left the house about 5.30, her usual hour.

She sent me out a little before five on a message and when I came back her hat and her coat had gone, so I presume she had gone also." "Did you see her go ?" asked T.X.
The man shook his head.
"No, sir, I very seldom see the lady come or go.

There has been no restrictions placed upon the young lady and she has been at liberty to move about as she likes.

Kara nodded.

There was nothing to be gained by making trouble here.
