Annandale confronts a brutal fight as Hughes strikes at him and is hurled aside. Hubert defends himself and presses to learn what Mr. Crosbie knows while climbing stairs. A locked room off the landing hides a frail old man lying among a sea of mattress beds, coughing feebly.
In a dim doss-house, Hubert Annandale interrogates John Crosbie about a found watch tied to a murder case. Crosbie recalls hobbling from Rodney to Bristol with a master’s note, a watch, and a dry yearned tale involving Hughes, an Italian, and a mysterious young woman near the hedge. The interview yields no decisive clue to the crime, but Crosbie recalls a possible sighting of a second woman, red in her hat, before a lawyer is summoned.
Annandale presents an affidavit to Stanley at Rodnacy seeking a clue. A rare watch matching a description tied to Giuseppe Calfiata is discussed. The pair debate tracing a woman with a red hat seen near the body as a possible link while noting the difficulty of locating her among red hat wearers.
