Mr. Bathurst was considerate enough to see Chief-Inspector Bannister off from Westhampton station on the following morning. He was sufficiently solicitous also to procure for him a corner-seat-to obtain for him all the newspapers that he desired-and to press upon him a couple of Henry Clays. From which it will be unerringly inferred that they parted upon the best of terms. "I wish you the best of luck down in Seabourne, Inspector," he said on parting. "Keep me posted if anything important pops up, won't you?"
"I will," promised Bannister. "Rely on me. And I hope when I see you again to be on the way to a successful termination of the case."
