"It’s all very well foryou to laugh, but I tell you I was so startled, I hit his cuffhard, and turned around, and cut out of the room–I lefthim–"Cuss stopped. There was no mistaking the sincerity ofhis panic. He turned round in a helpless way and took asecond glass of the excellent vicar’s very inferior sherry."When I hit his cuff," said Cuss, "I tell you, it felt exactlylike hitting an arm. And there wasn’t an arm! Therewasn’t the ghost of an arm!"Mr. Bunting thought it over. He looked suspiciously atCuss. "It’s a most remarkable story," he said. He lookedvery wise and grave indeed. "It’s really," said Mr. Buntingwith judicial emphasis, "a most remarkable story."46

CHAPTER V. THE BURGLARY
AT THE VICARAGE

chiefly through the medium of the vicar and his wife.

devoted in Iping to the Club festivities. Mrs. Bunting, it
