The Saint And Mr. Teal: Formerly Called "Once More The Saint" - Plot & Excerpts
Loss of memory is believed to be the cause of the mysterious disappearance of Dr. Sylvester Quell, professor of electro-chemistry, who has been missing for twenty-four hours. The professor’s housekeeper, Mrs. E. J. Lane, told a Daily Express representative that Dr. Quell left his house as usual at 10:30 a.m. on Wednesday to walk to his lecture room. He did not arrive there, and he has not been heard of since. “The professor was very upset by his brother’s sudden death,” said Mrs. Lane. “He spoke very little about it, but I know that it affected him deeply.” Dr. Quell is acknowledged to be one of the foremost authorities on metallurgy— Simon sprang out of his chair and began to pace up and down the room. “Think it out from the angle of Comrade Jones.
