A school known as Bunsenby Hall.
He died in a school infirmary there, supposedly of pneumonia.
And you have some reason to believe it was not pneumonia?
Nothing definite.
I've been down to the school, but Dr. Punsonby, the owner, was too ill to see me.
However, I did talk to a frightening woman there, who's the matron of the place, a Mrs. Arkwright.
I became suspicious.
So I stayed on and for a few days made some local inquiries.
With what results?
Punsonby Hall has a black name with the villagers, Mr. Holmes.
Five boys have died there in the last two years under circumstances similar to my brother's.
Good gracious me.
I presume that you immediately had an accounting with your uncle?
My uncle had settled another account before my return, Mr. Holmes.
He died of a heart attack last February.
But I am certain he was responsible for Eric's death.
You see, he stood to inherit the estate.
It may sound incredible.
But I believe Eric was murdered at Ponsonby Hall.
Murdered in a boys' school?
