Las escasas palabras que intercambiamos se refirieron al secreto que debíamos guardar, sobre todo en presencia del señor Stangerson, quien, de saberlo, concebiría una tristeza quizá mortal. Paso por alto el estupor de éste cuando nos vio en el andén de la estación de Lyon. Mathilde le contó que, a consecuencia de un grave accidente ferroviario que cortó la línea de Culoz, y ya que nos veíamos obligados a dar un rodeo, habíamos decidido reunimos con él e ir a pasar unos días todos juntos en casa de Arthur Rance y su joven esposa, como por lo demás nos lo había rogado encarecidamente aquel fiel amigo de la familia. … A este respecto, quizá ya sea hora de informar al lector, pese a que interrumpamos un instante el relato del señor Darzac, que Arthur William Rance, que, como ya dejé dicho en El Misterio del Cuarto Amarillo, durante tantos años había alimentado un amor sin esperanza por la señorita Stangerson, renunció tan definitivamente, que acabó casándose en justas nupcias con una joven americana que no recordaba en nada a la misteriosa hija del ilustre profesor.
The few words we spoke concerned the secret we must keep from M. Stangerson, who would be horrified if he suspected the truth. I will not describe to you the Professor’s astonishment on meeting us at Lyon station. Mathilde explained to her father that a serious accident had held up trains on the Couloz line and required a detour, and so we had decided to join him and go with him to visit Arthur Rance and his young wife, as, indeed, we had been invited to do by that faithful friend of the family.’ I might as well state here that Mr Arthur William Rance, who, as I explained in The Mystery of the Yellow Room, had for long years nursed an unrequited passion for Mlle Stangerson, had ended by accepting the inevitable, and had married a young American woman who was in every respect different from Professor Stangerson’s daughter.
