For him, this will be an entirely new hobby. But this does not matter, for, as he has often remarked, one is never too old to learn.

Both men had just begun to swim towards the shore, when they noticed with dismay that the speedboat was moving in a circle. It now came straight towards them at tremendous speed. In less than a minute, it roared past them only a few feet away. After it had passed, they swam on as quickly as they could because they knew that the boat would soon return. They had just had enough time to swim out of danger when the boat again completed a circle. On this occasion, however, it had slowed down considerably. The petrol had nearly all been used up. Before long, the noise dropped completely and the boat began to drift gently across the water.

　　'I suppose it would, but I never catch a later train.'
　　'At what time did you arrive at the station?'
　　'At ten to eight. I bought a paper and waited for the train.'

　　'Of course not.'

You see, on the morning of the murder, the 8 o'clock train did not run at all. It broke down at Ferngreen station and was taken off the line.'
