- But the stolen money did not last long and Griffin had to admit that he had no more ready cash. He however pretended that he was expecting a cheque to arrive at any moment.
- I think my guest is an eccentric scientist. However, I'll excuse his strange habits and irritable temper since he has paid me in advance.
- Shortly afterwards a curious episode occurred very early in the morning. The clergyman says to his wife...
- I can hear chink of money being taken from the desk.
- Let us go and check quietly!
- To his amazement, the room appeared empty. He and his wife look everywhere but can't find anyone yet the desk is open and the housekeeping money is missing.
- Surrender!
- Extraordinary affair!
- But it was not as extraordinary as the behavior of Mrs. Hall furniture a little later that morning. The landlord and his wife were up early and surprised to find the scientist's door open, usually it was locked. They decided to investigate and found all the bedclothes cold and bandages on the floor.
- All of a sudden Mrs. Hall heard a sniff close to her ear. A moment later the hat leapt up and dashed itself onto her face. The bedroom chair sprang into the air and charged straight at her legs. Mrs. Hall and her husband were pushed out of the room and the door appeared to lock after them.
- I'm sure this room is haunted by spirits and that stranger has somehow caused these to enter into my furniture. My poor mother used to sit in that chair. To think it should rise up against me now!
- When the news of the burglary at the clergyman's house became known, the strange scientist was strongly suspected. The village constable was secretly sent for.
