[00:02.88]Exercise 6Listen to the rest of the story
[00:06.47]and find out what happens in the end.
[00:10.01]After finding the body in the wood,
[00:12.06]Evans went back to his car.
[00:14.04]Suddenly, someone jumped out from behind a bush
[00:16.60]and the next thing Evans knew he was lying
[00:17.98]on the ground with his head throbbing.
[00:20.28]When he looked round,
[00:21.41]he saw that the body had disappeared!
[00:24.20]Evans drove to the Lacey's cabin.
[00:26.68]There was a light on and the door opened
[00:28.60]as he arrived.
[00:30.59]Mrs Lacey told him that her husband had gone
[00:32.80]out to meet a Mr Frank Ludders.
[00:35.34]Evans found out the reason
[00:36.86]for Mr Lacey's letter.
[00:38.69]When they were staying at the hotel,
[00:40.69]Lacey had put $500 in his wife's shoe
[00:43.87]as a surprise present.
[00:46.11]Mrs Lacey hadn't seen the money
[00:47.98]and had asked the hotel maid,
[00:49.53]Gertrude,to take the shoes to be repaired.
[00:51.78]The shoes came back with the money
[00:53.82]but the notes had changed and looked new
[00:56.42]so Mr Lacey was suspicious
[00:58.14]and decided to investigate.
[01:00.26]He sent one of the notes to a friend
[01:02.28]of his who told him that it was a forgery.
[01:04.86]A very good forgery,but a forgery all the same
