Holmes scribbled a receipt upon a sheet of his note-book and handed it to him.
“And mademoiselle’s address?” he asked.
“Is Briony Lodge, Serpentine Avenue, St. John’s Wood.”
Holmes took a note of it. “One other question,” said he. “Was the photograph a cabinet?”
“It was.”
“Then, good-night, your Majesty, and I trust that we shall soon have some good news for you. And good-night, Watson, ” he added, as the wheels of the royal brougham rolled down the street. “If you will be good enough to call to-morrow afternoon, at three o’clock, I should like to chat this little matter over with you.”
