locked and either assumed the parlour window was locked or else overlooked that fact which he confused with the bedroom window having been protected

82.
The foyer was totally dark as Feltus, followed close by Lowell who had drawn his revolver from beneath his jacket, cautiously entered and quickly glanced behind the door before flipping the switch for the chandelier that filled the area with immense, twinkling light, which contrasted with the dark parlour where only a single lamp by the settee adjacent to the painting futilely attempted to push back the shadows in which evil seemed to lurk

Before she arrived, however, Feltus glanced over her shoulder into the dimly lighted parlour, where the drapes had been drawn across the massive expanse of windows that surrounded the room and gave the impression of a floating paradise, and saw a man holding a teacup and sitting in a matching chair that was positioned so that he faced the foyer though he was partially concealed in a shadow

89.
Suddenly, a slender gloved hand turned on a light next to the sofa in the parlour, creating a dim, soft glow around the immediate area but not enough to illuminate the rest of the suite that remained cloaked in total darkness
90.
There was the hurried sound of a footstep in the darkness as the intruder evidently attempted to flee, but the progress was instantly halted when the chandelier and other lamps simultaneously showered the room with a brilliant light that exposed a figure standing before the painting that was slightly ajar with its back to the rest of the parlour
