Brack.

And where was your pistol case during that time?

Hedda.

I had it locked up in——

Brack.

Well, Mrs. Hedda?

Hedda.

The case stood there on the writing-table.

Brack.

Have you looked since, to see whether both the pistols are there?

Hedda.

No.

Brack.

Well, you need not. I saw the pistol found in Lövborg's pocket, and I knew it at once as the one I had seen yesterday—and before, too.

Hedda.

Have you it with you?

Brack.

No; the police have it.

Hedda.

What will the police do with it?

Brack.

Search till they find the owner.

Hedda.

Do you think they will succeed?
