AbstractHistoryArchive Description

A stranger leaves a valise with a sentry at Hyde Park Gates while he goes for a swim. He does not return for months and by then the Guard has given it to Scotland Yard. They finally retrieve it but an accident and a clever detective reveal jewels in the false bottom. Some individuality to routine style. (PB).
