He was a little dazed by the realization that he had spoken to Graham as he might have done to an enemy, as he had spoken to Howells in the old bedroom. He felt the touch of Graham's hand on his shoulder. "I'm only working in your service," Graham said kindly. "I'm sorry if I've troubled you by seeking physical facts in order to escape the ghosts. For Groom has brought the ghosts back with him. Don't make any mistake about that. You want the truth, don't you?" "Yes," Bobby said, "even if it does for me. But I want it quickly. I can't go on this way indefinitely." HE WAS A LITTLE DAZED BY THE REALIZATION THAT HE HAD SPOKEN TO GRAHAM AS HE MIGHT HAVE DONE TO AN ENEMY AS HE HAD SPOKEN TO HOWELLS IN THE OLD BEDROOM HE FELT THE TOUCH OF GRAHAM'S HAND ON HIS SHOULDER I'M ONLY WORKING IN YOUR SERVICE GRAHAM SAID KINDLY I'M SORRY IF I'VE TROUBLED YOU BY SEEKING PHYSICAL FACTS IN ORDER TO ESCAPE THE GHOSTS FOR GROOM HAS BROUGHT THE GHOSTS BACK WITH HIM DON'T MAKE ANY MISTAKE ABOUT THAT YOU WANT THE TRUTH DON'T YOU YES BOBBY SAID EVEN IF IT DOES FOR ME BUT I WANT IT QUICKLY I CAN'T GO ON THIS WAY INDEFINITELY
onsider every possibility. You were excited and imaginative when you went to the old room to take the evidence. It was a shock to have your candle go out. Your own hand, reaching out to Howells, might have moved spasmodically. I mean, you may have been responsible for the thing without realizing it." "And the disappearance of the evidence?" Bobby defended himself. "If it had been stolen earlier the coat pocket might have retained its bulging shape. We know now that Paredes is capable of sneaking around the house." "No, no," Bobby said hotly. "You're trying to take away my one hope. But I was there, and you weren't. I know with my own senses what happened, and you don't. Paredes has no such influence over me. I won't think of it." "If it's so far-fetched," Graham asked quietly, "why do you revolt from the idea?" Bobby turned on him. "And why do you fill my mind with such thoughts? If you think I'm guilty say so. Go tell Robinson so." He glanced away while the angry colour left his face. 'T MISUNDERSTAND ME GRAHAM SAID GENTLY I MUST CONSIDER EVERY POSSIBILITY YOU WERE EXCITED AND IMAGINATIVE WHEN YOU WENT TO THE OLD ROOM TO TAKE THE EVIDENCE IT WAS A SHOCK TO HAVE YOUR CANDLE GO OUT YOUR OWN HAND REACHING OUT TO HOWELLS MIGHT HAVE MOVED SPASMODICALLY I MEAN YOU MAY HAVE BEEN RESPONSIBLE FOR THE THING WITHOUT REALIZING IT AND THE DISAPPEARANCE OF THE EVIDENCE BOBBY DEFENDED HIMSELF IF IT HAD BEEN STOLEN EARLIER THE COAT POCKET MIGHT HAVE RETAINED ITS BULGING SHAPE WE KNOW NOW THAT PAREDES IS CAPABLE OF SNEAKING AROUND THE HOUSE NO NO BOBBY SAID HOTLY YOU'RE TRYING TO TAKE AWAY MY ONE HOPE BUT I WAS THERE AND YOU WEREN'T I KNOW IN MY OWN SENSES WHAT HAPPENED AND YOU DON'T PAREDES HAS NO SUCH INFLUENCE OVER ME I WON'T THINK OF IT IF IT'S SO FAR FETCHED GRAHAM ASKED QUIETLY WHY DO YOU REVOLT FROM THE IDEA BOBBY TURNED ON HIM AND WHY DO YOU FILL MY MIND WITH SUCH THOUGHTS IF YOU THINK I'M GUILTY SAY SO GO TELL ROBINSON SO HE GLANCED AWAY WHILE THE ANGRY COLOUR LEFT HIS FACE
