Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Was It a Murder?, Or Who Is the Heir?: Le Bac
The druggist who built the place experienced the truth of this latter fact. When the house is finished death enters, says a Turkish proverb. One evening when this distinguished merchant had eaten and drank too much at dinner, after having arranged his accounts with his contractor to his own advantage, he took a walk on the bank of the river, and was found drowned in it the next day.
