Question 2 of 4
2. Question
He was glad to remember that Mr Garwood, who had looked at picture earlier in evening, had also seen ‘rather unpleasant’ figure. He decided that in morning he must ask someone to look carefully at picture with him, and he must try very hard to discover name of house. He would ask his neighbour, Mr Nisbet, to have breakfast with him. Then he would spend morning looking for house in his guidebooks.

‘Of course I am. But there’s one other thing.’
‘What’s that?’
‘One of windows on ground floor, on left of door, is open.’
‘Is it really? Oh dear! I suppose he’s got into house,’ said Williams, with great excitement.He hurried across to where Nisbet was sitting and, taking picture from him, saw for himself. It was quite true. There was figure on lawn, and there was open window.
