Notes
"Why was the Curate deposited in the refuse box by the roadside? Why were the women's clothes bought by the youth to fit me? Why were eighty petrol pumps smashed with an axe between 12 and 2? Why was the Walthamstow Butcher flung over the butcher's block? Why did the coal-box on Joe's head cause that terrible blow? and 13 other whys. This is no ordinary mystery story!"
