With him was the doctor's daughter, Elsie, come on a desperate attempt to discover why her father had deliberately cut himself off from his friends and family, since his return from his latest expedition to the jungles of South America.

Finally breaking into the apparently deserted house, Kent has left Elsie on the lower floor, while he investigates footsteps in an upper room, he finds Dr. Beecham ready to defend himself against intruders with a knife and gun. But just as Kent is about to offer explanations, a ringing scream brings both men racing back downstairs to the library. Everything is in

That's how we got in. Rook a door down. Come on, doctor. It's open. That's the way she went. She must have seen something or been frightened by something inside the house. Well, she was carried away.
