In the window, caught by the sudden fall of the sash, was a black frock coat.

In one of the tail pockets was a briar-root pipe.

The sash had fallen while the murderer was getting out, and, pulled against the sash, the pipe held the garment fast.

One sleeve was torn nearly off.

In a side pocket was found a letter addressed to Dave Kittymunks, general delivery, Chicago, and post-marked Milwaukee.
