    Mademoiselle   Hortense   eyes   him   with   a   scowl   upon   her   tight 

face�察�which gradually changes into a smile of scorn。 ^You are very 

mysterieuse。 Are you drunk�拭院�

    ^Tolerable sober�察�my angel�察院�returns Mr Bucket。 

    ^I come from arriving at this so detestable house with your wife。 

Your     wife   have    left  me�察   �since   some     minutes。     They    tell  me 

downstairs that your wife is here。 I come here�察�and your wife is not 

here。     What    is  the   intention     of  this   fool¨s   play�察  �say   then�拭院�

Mademoiselle   demands�察  �with   her   arms   composedly   crossed�察  �but 

with something in her dark cheek beating like a clock。 

    Mr Bucket merely shakes the finger at her。 

    ^Ah�察  �my  God�察  �you   are   an   unhappy  idiot� 院  �cries   Mademoiselle�察�

with     a  toss   of  her   head    and    a   laugh。!^Leave        me    to  pass 

downstairs�察�great pig。 ̄ With a stamp of her foot�察�and a menace。 

    ^Now�察  �Mademoiselle�察院  �says   Mr   Bucket�察  �in   a   cool   determined 

way�察 �you go and sit down upon that sofy。 ̄ 

    ^I will not sit down upon nothing�察院�she replies�察�with a shower of 

nods。 

    ^Now�察     �Mademoiselle�察院        �repeats     Mr     Bucket�察    �making       no 

demonstration�察  �except   with   the   finger�察   �you   sit   down   upon   that 

sofy。 ̄ 

    ^Why�拭院�

    ^Because   I  take   you   into   custody   on   a   charge   of   murder�察  �and 

you don¨t need to be told it。 Now�察�I want to be polite to one of your 

sex and a foreigner�察�if I can。 If I can¨t�察�I must be rough�察�and there¨s 

rougher   ones   outside。   What   I   am   to   be�察  �depends      on  you。   So   I 

recommend you�察�as a friend�察�afore another half a blessed moment 

has passed over your head�察�to go and sit down upon that sofy。 ̄ 

    Mademoiselle   complies�察  �saying   in   a   concentrated   voice�察  �while

that   something      in  her  cheek    beats   fast  and   hard�察   �You    are  a 

Devil。 ̄ 

    ^Now�察    �you   see�察院  �Mr    Bucket    proceeds     approvingly      ^you¨re 

comfortable�察�and conducting yourself as I should expect a foreign 

young woman of your sense to do。 So I¨ll give you a piece of advice�察�

and it¨s this�察�Don¨t you talk too much。 You¨re not expected to say 

anything here�察�and you can¨t keep too quiet a tongue in your head。 

In short�察�the less you Parlay�察�the better�察�you know。 ̄ Mr Bucket is 

very complacent over this French explanation。 

   Mademoiselle�察  �with   that   tigerish   expansion   of   the   mouth�察  �and 

her black eyes darting fire upon him�察�sits upright on the sofa in a 

rigid state�察�with her hands clenched!and her feet too�察�one might 

suppose!muttering�察 �O�察�you Bucket�察�you are a Devil� 院�

    ^Now�察  �Sir   Leicester   Dedlock�察  �Baronet�察院  �says   Mr   Bucket�察  �and 

from this time forth the finger never rests�察 �this young woman�察�my 

lodger�察�was her Ladyship¨s maid at the time I have mentioned to 

you�察    �and    this   young     woman�察     �besides     being    extraordinary 

vehement       and    passionate     against    her   Ladyship      after   being 

discharged! ̄ 

    ^Lie� 院�cries Mademoiselle。 ^I discharge myself。 ̄ 

    ^Now�察  �why  don¨t  you  take   my advice�拭院  �returns   Mr   Bucket�察  �in 

an impressive�察�almost in an imploring tone。 ^I¨m surprised at the 

indiscreetness   you   commit。   You¨ll   say   something   that¨ll   be   used 

against you�察�you know。 You¨re sure to come to it。 Never you mind 

what I say�察�till it¨s given in evidence。 It¨s not addressed to you。 ̄ 

    ^Discharge�察     �too� 院   �cries   Mademoiselle�察      �furiously�察    �by    her 

Ladyship�   �Eh�察  �my   faith�察  �a   pretty   Ladyship�   �Why�察  �I   r´r´r´ruin   my 

character by remaining with a Ladyship so infame� 院�

    ^Upon my  soul   I  wonder at  you� 院  �Mr  Bucket  remonstrates。   ^I

female going on like that�察�before Sir Leicester Dedlock�察�Baronet� 院�

house�察�upon his name�察�upon his imbecility�察院�all of which she makes 

the carpet represent。 ^Oh�察�that he is a great man� �O yes�察�superb� �O 

heaven� �Bah� 院�

    ^Well�察    �Sir   Leicester     Dedlock�察院     �proceeds      Mr    Bucket�察     �this 

intemperate   foreigner  also   angrily   took   it   into   her   head   that   she 

had     established     a   claim    upon    Mr    Tulkinghorn�察      �deceased�察     �by 

attending  on   the   occasion   I   told   you   of�察  �at   his   chambers�察  �though 

she was liberally paid for her time and trouble。 ̄

parenthetically�察 �you must take the consequences。�� Now�察�whether 

she became my lodger�察�Sir Leicester Dedlock�察�with any deliberate 

intention      then   of  doing    this  deed    and    blinding    me�察   �I  give   no 

opinion on�察�but she lived in my house�察�in that capacity�察�at the time 

that   she   was   hovering   about   the   chambers   of   the   deceased   Mr 

Tulkinghorn   with   a   view   to   a   wrangle�察  �and   likewise   persecuting 

and half frightening the life out of an unfortunate stationer。 ̄ 

    ^Lie� 院�cries Mademoiselle。 ^All lie� 院�

and   you   know   under   what   circumstances。   Now�察  �I   beg   of   you   to 

follow me close with your attention for a minute or two。 I was sent 

for�察�and the case was entrusted to me。 I examined the place�察�and 

the    body�察  �and    the  papers�察  �and     everything。     From     information      I 

received      ��from   a  clerk   in   the  same     house��    I  took   George     into 

custody�察  �as   having  been   seen   hanging   about   there�察  �on   the   night�察�

overheard in high words with the deceased on former occasions! 

even threatening him�察�as the witness made out。 If you ask me�察�Sir 

Leicester Dedlock�察�whether from the first I believed George to be 

the    murderer�察      �I  tell   you    candidly     No�察   �but    he   might     be�察�

notwithstanding�察�and there was enough against him to make it my 

duty to take him�察�and get him kept under remand。 Now�察�observe� 院�

   As   Mr   Bucket   bends   forward   in   some   excitement!for   him! 

and inaugurates what he is going to say with  one   ghostly beat  of 

his   forefinger   in   the   air�察  �Mademoiselle   Hortense   fixes   her   black 

eyes upon him with a dark frown�察�and sets her dry lips closely and 

firmly together。 

    ^I   went   home�察  �Sir   Leicester   Dedlock�察  �Baronet�察  �at   night�察  �and 

found this young woman having supper with my wife�察�Mrs Bucket。 

She  had made   a mighty  show  of   being   fond   of   Mrs   Bucket   from 

her   first   offering   herself   as   our   lodger�察  �but   that   night   she   made 

more     than    ever!in     fact   overdid    it。  Likewise    she   overdid     her 

respect�察�and all that�察�for the lamented memory of the deceased Mr 

Tulkinghorn。       By   the   living   Lord    it  flashed   upon    me�察  �as   I  sat 

opposite to her at the table and saw her with a knife in her hand�察�

that she had done it� 院�

    Mademoiselle is hardly audible�察�in straining  through  her  teeth 

and lips the words ^You are a Devil。 ̄ 

    ^Now where�察院�pursues Mr Bucket�察�had she been on the night of 

the murder�拭�She had been to the theayter。 ��She really was there�察�I 

have since found�察�both before the deed and after it。�� I knew I had 

an   artful   customer   to   deal    with�察  �and   that   proof   would    be  very 

difficult�察�and I laid a trap for her!such a trap as I never laid yet�察�

and   such   a   venture   as   I   never   made   yet。   I   worked   it   out   in   my 

mind while I was talking to her at supper。 When I went upstairs to

stuffed the sheet into Mrs Bucket¨s mouth that she shouldn¨t say a 

word   of   surprise�察  �and   told   her   all   about   it。!My   dear�察  �don¨t   you 

give your mind to that again�察�or  I shall link   your  feet  together  at
