To facilitate her work, she has taught her employer lip-reading, and has naturally become an adept at it herself. Ned, her employer's son, falls in love with her, to his father's entire satisfaction. But since the old gentleman has a keen sense of humor, he at first pretends to be greatly enraged. The butler overhears a part of the apparent quarrel between them. That evening burglars break into the house and kill the old man with a heavy cane Ned has left in the study. On the circumstantial strength of the butler's testimony, Ned is arrested for murder. At the trial, things are going very badly for young Felton until Alice happens to see a man in the audience whispering to his neighbor. With unerring precision, she reads the words, "If they knew 1 killed him." The story ends in an ably sustained dramatic climax wherein the utterly bewildered burglar, jerked rudely from his supposed safety, is confronted with the fatal cane and confesses his guilt.
