"Let us throw off this depressing business as well as we can," he
said. "Of course I have had to break it to my sister and the
others; they would have seen it to-day in print. Thank goodness the

Magnay, 2nd Baronet (1855 - 1917) was an English baronet and
novelist, publishing 25 novels before his death. His works include:
The Red Chancellor (1901), Count Zarka (1903), Fauconberg (1905),
The Mystery of the Unicorn (1907), The Powers of Mischief (1909),
The Fruit of Indiscretion: A Society Mystery (1913) and The Hunt
Ball Mystery (1918). Hugh Gifford discovers he is without evening
clothes due to a mistake made by the guard unloading luggage.
Gifford and his friend Harry Kelson are going to a Hunt Ball to be
held that evening at Wynford Place. Hugh and his friend share a
ride to a local hotel to wait for the time to go to the ball. When
Henshaw is discovered missing he is found in a locked room with the
key on the inside and an 80 feet drop from its window. The general
consensus is Henshaw committed suicide, but Gervase Henshaw, the
dead man's brother, disagrees, and so does the doctor who gives
evidence at the inquest.
