The passengers were naturally indignant at such treatment, and for the rest of the voyage the man found himself taking, what you English 'call the cold shoulder.' He reached Belfast, made his way into the country, and presently settled down.

Later on, when the pursuit had died down, it was his intention to ship for America, where he was to be joined by the woman, to obtain whom he had in the first place committed the crime.

Now observe the result.

Photographs of the missing man and the murdered woman were circulated all through France, while not a few were sent to England.

One of these pictures reached Plymouth, where it was shown to the officer who had investigated the case on the boat on its way to Ireland.
