He gave a brief rsum of what he had heard, and then he produced his list. 'It must be one of these,' he said. 'My godfather, Sir Henry Clithering, told me that you once had a club here. You called it the Tuesday Night Club. You all dined with each other in mm and then someone would tell a story - a story of some real life happening which had ended in mystery. A mystery of which only the teller of the tale knew the answer. And every time, so my godfather told me, you guessed right.
