An assistant immediately conveyed us toan office at the rear of the building, where we found an elderlygentleman writing at a desk. He looked up as we entered, and then, seeing the Inspector's uniform, rose and asked our business. "The day before yesterday, " began my companion, "you supplied agentleman with a number of South-Sea weapons and curios on hire, did younot?" "I remember doing so--yes, " was the old gentleman's answer. "What aboutit?" "Only I should be glad if you would favour me wit...h a description of theperson who called upon you about them--or a glimpse of his letter, if hewrote. " "He called and saw me personally. " "Ah! That is good. Now would you be so kind as to describe him?" "Well, in the first place, he was very tall and rather handsome; he had, if I remember rightly, a long brown moustache, and was decidedly welldressed. " "That doesn't tell us very much, does it? Was he alone?" "No. He had with him, when he came into the office, an individual whoseface remains fixed in my memory--indeed I cannot get it out of my head.
