He did n't say what the matter was , except that something had happened to Hannaford . It seems that lately he 's been in the habit of sleeping through the whole morning , giving orders that he was n't to be disturbed till he rang . So when there were no signs of him to-day at lunch time nobody worried . It was only when two o'clock came and he had n't stirred that the _ valet de chambre _ began to think it queer . They have glass transoms over the doors , and they could see his room was dark . I expect they listened at the keyhole ; anyhow , the landlord was consulted at last , and when they 'd knocked and called without getting any answer , at last they opened the door . Luckily nobody was about at that time of day -- every one out of doors or in the Casino , so there was no scene .
