Harold is relieved, but becomes confused upon seeing the two Polish women taking a walk. Poirot tells him that, although not particularly attractive, they are of good family and background. The true culprits are Mrs Rice and her daughter. "Philip Clayton" never existed; the man Harold saw "killed" was Mrs Rice in disguise.

Miss Carnaby is especially concerned as she knows of three women in a similar situation who have all died within the past year. She has investigated and found nothing unusual in the deaths, all of which were due to natural causes and none of them happened within the sanctuary but at the homes of the deceased.
