:46:00
The police will want statements
from everyone.
:46:04
I shall have to ask you,
Mr Royce, to stay until morning.
:46:09
Yes, of course.
:46:15
- Superintendent Lomas, Sir Walter.
- Come in.
:46:24
You wanted to see me, sir?
:46:27
It seems you've been
jumping to conclusions.
:46:30
- Hannay was involved. He is involved.
- Only as an innocent bystander.
:46:34
He's not in the clear yet.
:46:36
Everything he told you about his life
is confirmed by irreproachable authority.
:46:42
He was decorated
for his services against the Boers.
:46:45
- His years in the German colonies?
- As a mining engineer
:46:48
and a prospector for a British firm.
:46:51
Very well, sir. You have your opinion.
:46:53
His story about
Scudder's notebook is true.
:46:56
The booking office clerk
confirmed that.
:46:59
Now... the foreign agents will be
out to murder him and get it back.
:47:04
Issue a statement that Hannay is
innocent, then he can come in safely.
:47:09
No! Sir.
:47:11
If we stop looking for him,
the enemy will have a clear field.
:47:15
We must find him before they do.
:47:31
Constable Forbes to see you, sir.
:47:34
- I'm sorry to bother you so late, sir.
- lan, come on in.
:47:37
- You'll have heard about poor Donald?
- Aye. Aye, I have.
:47:41
It's more than possible that it's somehow
connected with this man Hannay.
:47:46
Hannay? The fellow
who escaped from London?
:47:49
They know he left the express
at Drumbriggs viaduct.
:47:53
He's heading in this general direction.
:47:56
He's said to be a highly dangerous man
so we're just warning people.
