THE CASE OF THE LAMP THAT WENT OUT - AUGUSTE GR...

The radiance of a clear September morning lay over Vienna. The air was so pure that the sky
shone in brightest azure even where the city's buildings clustered thickest. On the outskirts
of the town the rays of the awakening sun danced in crystalline ether and struck answering
gleams from the dew on grass and shrub in the myriad gardens of the suburban streets. It was
still very early. The old-fashioned steeple clock on the church of the Holy Virgin in Hietzing
had boomed out six slow strokes but a short time back. Anna  the pretty blonde girl who carried
out the milk for the dwellers in several streets of this aristocratic residential suburb  was
just coming around the corner of the main street into a quiet lane. This lane could hardly be
dignified by the name of street as yet  it was so very quiet. It had been opened and named
scarcely a year back and it was bordered mostly by open gardens or fenced-in building lots.
