the approach of two officers who ran up to Pollard and seized him.
"You are under arrest," said one of the policemen, "for entering a hotel guest’s room and destroying his property."
Clayton and I left Pollard in the safe hands of the officers and returned to the hotel. We repaired at once to Lee’s room. There, strewn on the table and floor, were minute fragments of what had once been a miniature likeness of the Arch of
Titus. I commenced picking the pieces off the floor and Lee proceeded to clear up the fragments from the table, where they lay scattered across the books and papers which in his hurry he had left opened and thrown about.
A sudden exclamation brought me hurriedly to his side. He was staring with bulging eyes at a page of Latin wherein the words miles certus seemed to jump up out of the text to meet us, and immediately above the inscription, laid by the careful hand of Fate, was a fragment of the tiny arch; the breast and head of Josephus!"
"The twenty centuries are passed," I said, "and the prophecy is fulfilled. Josephus was right, though he did all within his power to prevent its accomplishment. He was unconsciously a tool in the hands of Fate."
After a silence of some moments I asked, "Why didn’t Tacitus correct his version of 'a certain soldier'? Pliny intended to tell him the revelation of Josephus and that would have made it unnecessary for two thousand years to pass before its becoming known."
Lee Clayton smiled. "If you will look up Pliny the Elder in the encyclopedia, you will learn that he died at Pompeii in the famous eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in 79 A. D."
