By the success of Ezra Jennings 's experiment the first half of the mystery of the moonstone has been solved: the second half, as to how the diamond came to be pledged to the money-lender, Septimus Luker , remains.
The day when the moonstone must be redeemed or forfeited has come, and opposite the bank in Lombard Street, Sergeant Cuff and Franklin Blake watch for the moment when Septimus Luker will come out with the jewel in his possession. As he does so, they see him stop and pass something to a man, dressed as a sailor, loitering on the pavement. The man hails a cab and Constable Jordan is ordered to follow him.

With her big blue baby eyes,
And many a master's ticket
Has she torn in two for a prize.
