Welcome to the thirteenth episode of Mark's current Tale for Our Time: Mystery in White by Jefferson Farjeon. In tonight's episode, a murderer is on the loose this Christmas Eve - and the only question is how many are dead:
"Yes, but look here, why didn't you go back and look for that—that log!" demanded Mr. Hopkins, as Mr. Maltby paused.
"I had wandered around for ten minutes without coming upon it again," answered Mr. Maltby. "I had no idea where to look. Besides, at that time I thought it was a log. I had not then found hairs upon the hammer."
