f Herbert for many years.” “It’s queer, isn’t it, parting with a man at the college gate or at Paddington, seeing nothing of him for years, and then finding him pop up his head in such an odd place. But I should like to have seen Mrs. Herbert; people said extraordinary things about her.” “What sort of things?” “Well, I hardly know how to tell you. Everyone who saw her at the police court said she was at once the most beautiful woman and the most repulsive they had ever set eyes on. I have spoken to a man who saw her, and I assure you he positively shuddered as he tried to describe the woman, but he couldn’t tell why. She seems to have been a sort of enigma; and I expect if that one dead man could have told tales, he would have told some uncommonly queer ones. And there you are again in another puzzle; what could a respectable country gentleman like Mr. Blank (we’ll call him that if you don’t mind) want in such a very queer house as Number 20? It’s altogether a very odd case, isn’t it?” T I HAVE LOST SIGHT OF HERBERT FOR MANY YEARS IT'S QUEER ISN'T IT PARTING WITH A MAN AT THE COLLEGE GATE OR AT PATTINGTON SEEING NOTHING OF HIM FOR YEARS AND THEN FINDING HIM POP OFF HIS HEAD IN SUCH AN ODD PLACE BUT I SHOULD LIKE TO HAVE SEEN MISSUS HERBERT PEOPLE SAID EXTRAORDINARY THINGS ABOUT HER WHAT SORT OF THINGS WELL I HARDLY KNOW HOW TO TELL YOU EVERY ONE WHO SAW HER AT THE POLICE COURT SAID SHE WAS AT ONCE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMAN AND THE MOST REPULSIVE THEY HAD EVER SET EYES ON I HAVE SPOKEN TO A MAN WHO SAW HER AND I ASSURE YOU HE POSITIVELY SHUDDERED AS HE TRIED TO DESCRIBE THE WOMAN BUT HE COULDN'T TELL WHY SHE SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN A SORT OF ENIGMA AND I EXPECT IF THAT ONE DEAD MAN COULD HAVE TOLD TALES HE WOULD HAVE TOLD SOME UNCOMMONLY QUEER ONES AND THERE YOU ARE AGAIN IN ANOTHER PUZZLE WHAT COULD A RESPECTABLE COUNTRY GENTLEMAN LIKE MISTER BLANK WILL CALL HIM THAT IF YOU DON'T MIND WANT IN SUCH A VERY QUEER HOUSE AS NUMBER TWENTY IT'S ALTOGETHER A VERY ODD CASE ISN'T IT
