You were identified at Bexhill the other day by Milly Higley and a girlfrom the Scarlet Runner Roadhouse，where you took Betty Barnard to dine onthe fatal evening.And finally-most damning of all-you overlook a mostelementary precaution.You left a fingerprint on Cust's typewriter-thetypewriter that，if you are innocent，you could never have handled." Clarke sat quite still for a miture，then he said: "Rouge，impair，manque!-you win，M.Poirot!But it was worth trying!" With an incredibly rapid motion he whipped out a small automatic fromhis pocket and held it to his head. I gave a cry and involuntarily flinched as I waited for the report. But no report came-the hammer clicked harmlessly.

Clarke stared at it in astonishment and uttered an oath. "No，Mr Clarke，"said Poirot."You may have noticed I had a newmanservant today-a friend of mine-an expert sneak thief.He removed yourpistol from your pocket，unloaded it，and returned it，all without you beingaware of the fact." "You unutterable little jackanapes of a foreigner!"cried Clarke，purplewith rage. "YEs，yes，that is how you feel.No，Mr Clarke，no easy death for you. You told Mr Cust that you had had near escapes from drowning.You knowwhat that means-that you were born for another fate."
