"Oh!Lady Clarke,you mustn't say that.I did think Miss Grey a very nicegirl-so romantic-looking,like someone out of a novel." "I've no patience with the lot of you,"said Lady Clarke feebly. "Well,she's gone now,my dear.Gone right away." Lady Clarke shook her head with feeble impatience but she did not answer. Poirot said: "Why did you say that Miss Grey was a liar?" "Because she is.She told you no strangers came to the house,didn'tshe?" "Yes." "Very well,then.I saw her-with my own eyes-out of this window-talkingto a perfectly strange man on the front doorstep."

"In the morning of the day Car died-about eleven o'clock." "What did this man look like?" "An ordinary sort of man.Nothing special." "A gentleman-or a tradesman?" "Not a tradesman.A shabby sort of person.I can't remember." A sudden quiver of pain shot across her face. "Please-you must go now-I'm a little tired-Nurse." We obeyed the cue and took our departure. "That's an extraordinary story,"I said to Poirot as we journeyed backto London."About Miss Grey and a strange man." "You see,Hastings?It is,as I tell you:there is always something to befound out."
