“‘Well,
perhaps
it
is
better
that
I
should
not
tell
you
that
just
at
this
moment.
I
have
it
from
the
same
source
that
you
are
both
an
orphan
and
a
bachelor
and
are
residing
alone
in
London.’”
“‘That
is
quite
correct,’
I
answered;
‘but
you
will
excuse
me
if
I
say
that
I
cannot
see
how
all
this
bears
upon
my
professional
qualifications.
I
understand
that
it
was
on
a
professional
matter
that
you
wished
to
speak
to
me?’”
“‘Undoubtedly
so.
But
you
will
find
that
all
I
say
is
really
to
the
point.
I
have
a
professional
commission
for
you,
but
absolute
secrecy
is
quite
essential—absolute
secrecy,
you
understand,
and
of
course
we
may
expect
that
more
from
a
man
who
is
alone
than
from
one
who
lives
in
the
bosom
of
his
family.’”
“‘If
I
promise
to
keep
a
secret,’
said
I,
‘you
may
absolutely
depend
upon
my
doing
so.’”
“He
looked
very
hard
at
me
as
I
spoke,
and
it
seemed
to
me
that
I
had
never
seen
so
suspicious
and
questioning
an
eye.”
“‘Do
you
promise,
then?’
said
he
at
last.”
“‘Yes,
I
promise.’”
“‘Absolute
and
complete
silence
before,
during,
and
after?
No
reference
to
the
matter
at
all,
either
in
word
or
writing?’”
