The book begins: Mr. Samuel Weatherley, sole proprietor of the firm of Samuel Weatherley and Co., wholesale provision merchants, of Tooley Street, London, paused suddenly on his way from his private office to the street. There was something which until that second had entirely slipped his memory. It was not his umbrella, for that, neatly tucked up, was already under his arm.
