A wealthy man named Richard Ellis had been counting his money. When
he finished, he accidentally left a $100.00 bill on his desk. But when he
returned for it a short while later, it was gone. Only two other people
could have seen the bill. One was the maid; the other was the butler.
The maid told him that she had hidden it for safe-keeping under a green
book that was on the desk. But when they looked the bill was not
there.
The butler said he had found the bill where the maid had left it. He had
placed it inside the book, where he thought there was less chance that
somebody would find it. He had written down the page numbers so that
he would not forget them. The bill was between pages 35 and 36, he
said. But when they looked, there was no money in the book.
After Mr. Ellis had talked to the maid and the butler, he called the
police. He knew who had taken the money. Who was it, and how did
he know?
