But Braddock had no eyes for her, and no ears for anyone. He pulled eagerly at the straw packing until the floor was littered. But no green case appeared . . . and where was the promised relic?

Fergus Hume (1859-1932) was author of novels of mystery and detection including "The Secret Passage" and "The Silent House in Pimlico.
