"Sir Raife Remington and party left Marseilles to-day, en route for the United States." He reflected: "It's fifty to one Remington didn't put that notice in. I wonder who did. It would take a lot of people in. It's clever enough for that blackguard, Malsano. After that note on the cliffs, at Cromer, he isn't going to tell us he's alive, at least, not in that way." He took the telephone and rang up the _New York Herald_ office. He told them who he was. Then he read the notice and asked: "Where did you get that notice from?" An American voice replied asking him to hold the wire. "The man who took it in is not on duty, but the office-boy describes him as a little man, dark, with a broad-brimmed hat, and a big, black necktie. He looked like an artist from the Quartier Latin." Herrion answered: "Thanks, that will do. I think I know the man." Replacing the receiver he smiled rather than spoke to himself. "I thought so. It's Malsano's work, and the man who took it was Lesigne. I must find an excuse to arrest that fellow Lesigne. Malsano's been too clever for me, up to now." Mr Herrion took his hat, strolled along the boulevards, and made his way to the Prefecture of Police. Here he described Lesigne, and put it, tentatively, that he was a dangerous fellow, and that whereas he, Herrion, could not actually prove anything criminal against him, at the same time, he was satisfied that the man was an active agent among a bunch of criminals. His arrest would serve a useful purpose. The arrest was not made, for Doctor Malsano had other uses for Lesigne, and he had left Paris. The plans for the burglary in the Champs Elysees were progressing, but they formed no part of Raife's work in the matter. He was to supply the "agility, courage and daring" on the night, and he readily consented to act such a part. In his present mood he was prepared with all those qualities. In the meantime, he had leisure to enjoy Gilda's company. After the fright when Gilda had seen Detective-Inspector Herrion, in his disguise, at the Cafe Buonaventure, they avoided the boulevards, and took trips into the country. They preferred the country that has been made famous by the great French painters, Corot, Daubigny, and the other founders of the Barbison school. Here, among a simple peasantry, in wood and dale, they wandered together, this extraordinary couple, who, starting with all that beauteous man and womanhood could endow them with, were both involved in crime. The crime was not of their making, yet they were almost unconsciously made the active agents.
