The arrangement was made for the following morning. They started out a little before seven. The girl, as usual, was in the garden as they passed. She did not look up as they passed. It was exactly twenty-five minutes past seven. A woman's voice, high and agonised. cried "Murder – Help! Murder!" Lavington had heard nothing. He took a step or two and fell. He fainted. Lavington said Jack was under acute strain and the delusions were going out of his mind.Jack told Lavington the whole series of occurrences. The doctor assured him that some people see and hear things that other people don’t.. Lavington advised him to relax and promised to find about that cottage back there.
