Miss Marple set about her plan of campaign methodically and making due

allowance for the Christmas season which was a definitely retarding

factor.

She wrote to her great- nephew, David West, combining Christmas

wishes with an urgent request for information.

Fortunately she was invited, as on previous years, to the vicarage for

Christmas dinner, and here she was able to tackle young Leonard, home

for the Christmas season, about maps.

Maps of all kinds were Leonard’s passion. The reason for the old lady’s

inquiry about a large-scale map of a particular area did not rouse his curi-

osity. He discoursed on maps generally with fluency, and wrote down for

her exactly what would suit her purpose best. In fact, he did better. He ac-

tually found that he had such a map amongst his collection and he lent it

to her, Miss Marple promising to take great care of it and return it in due

course.
