He was frequently in consultation with Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. One morning he took up his post near Mrs. Knickerbocker's house, inspired by a great British detective story writer. Many persons came and went from the house, and Dunbar scrutinized them all. But he let everyone goes his way in peace. Then he saw John Travers dismount from his car a block or so down the avenue, and approach with a just discernably hesitating air. He went up the steps, but, his hand on the bell, the young millionaire wavered, turned quickly and hurried back toward the car. Dunbar sauntered out from the street, where he had been lingering unseen. Travers started, and broke into a run. He got away, but Dunbar, hailing a passing motor for hire, gave pursuit. The chase led him up through Westchester County to Travers' beautiful country home. Travers arrived first, and confident that he had out-distanced the other car, he breathed freely. Scarcely a half hour later, Dunbar left his automobile in the road, and cut across the wooded lawn to the house. He climbed in at a window and crept stealthily upstairs. He listened at one door after another in the long hall. Suddenly, he turned a knob, and opened a cautious crack. There, in bed, in a luxuriously appointed room, attended by a blue-uniformed nurse and a stately old lady, whom Dunbar recognized as Travers' mother, lay Margaret. Triumphant, but thoroughly puzzled, Dunbar backed out noiselessly. He turned, to face young Travers. "Come out of doors" Dunbar whispered, "and give an account of yourself" Travers' story convulsed the reformed gentleman burglar. He had always heard that the young millionaire had a mania for speeding. That he should have accidentally run down a young lady of his own set and get himself into such a mess, was too delicious! Here was Travers hiding from the police, all New York by the ears over Margaret's "kidnapping," and the young lady herself solicitously watched over by her abductor's own mother! And all because the richest young man in Westchester County didn't want to go to jail! Dunbar gave his word of honor that he would intercede for Travers with the authorities, but, meanwhile, without an hour's delay. Mrs. Knickerbocker must be informed and brought to her niece. As for "Raffles" himself, he flung away all thought of extorting ransom, and that same afternoon he had the satisfaction of reuniting Margaret and her aunt.
