Beyond him in the darkness, though, was something white; something like a robe or a frock. He turned, and for a minute he held this white figure very close. Then the door swung shut, and he started swiftly away down the walk.

Something flashed over the cobbles—a thing that flew like an arrow and glittered like a knife. It struck with a hard thud.
