CHARLES KENT
At last I ventured a tentative query to Poirot. His reply was immediate.
"Mon ami, I do not think; I know."
"Really?" I said incredulously.
"Yes, indeed. I suppose now that to you it would not make sense if I said that he went to Fernly that night because he was born in Kent?"
I stared at him.
"It certainly doesn't seem to make sense to me," I said dryly.
"Ah!" said Poirot pityingly. "Well, no matter. I have still my little idea."
