question: CHAPTER X 

MARSTON USES HIS POWER 

Soon after Don Felix was buried two strangers visited the schooner. One was white but so burned by the sun and worn by the climate that he looked like a native. Peters was agent for a Hamburg merchant house with a factory on a neighboring lagoon, and told Wyndham he had come because he seldom met a white man. The other was a government officer and stated, apologetically, that his business was to make a few inquiries about Don Felix's death. His skin was nearly white, but his coarse lips and short, curling hair indicated a strain of negro blood. 

Marston knew something about the officials who held small posts on the Caribbean coast. For the most part, they were mulattos, paid low wages and willing to augment the latter by presents and bribes. As a rule, he had found them good-humored and indolent, and he imagined Don Ramon Larrinaga would be satisfied with a few particulars and a little money. There was, he thought, no use in trying to put him on the track of the unknown poisoner. He let Wyndham take the man to the cabin and sat under the awning on deck with Peters, for whom he opened a bottle of vermouth. 

Peters knew much about the country and told him some rather curious stories. He looked shriveled and desiccated, but his glance was keen and Marston imagined he was very shrewd. Marston, however, did not study him much; it was enough that he was an amusing companion while Wyndham was occupied. By-and-by the latter opened the cabin scuttle and beckoned.

CHAPTER XIV 

LOUIS EXPLAINS 

Louis returned of his own accord before long. 

"Monsieur has been well served?" he asked genially. 

"Excellently, Louis," I answered, "so far as the mere question of food goes. You have not, however, managed to satisfy my curiosity." 

"Monsieur?" he asked interrogatively. 

"Concerning the Deloras," I answered. 

Louis shrugged his shoulders. 

"But what should I know?" he asked. "Mr. Delora, he has come here last year and the year before. He has stayed for a month or so. He understands what he eats. That is all. Mademoiselle comes for the first time. I know her not at all." 

"What do you think of his disappearance, Louis?" I asked. 

"What should I think of it, monsieur? I know nothing." 

"Mr. Delora, I am told," I continued, "is a coffee planter in South America." 

"I, too," Louis admitted, "have heard so much." 

"How came he to have the _entree_ to the Cafe des Deux Epingles?" I asked. 

Louis smiled. 

"I myself," he remarked, "am but a rare visitor there. How should I tell?" 

"Louis," said I, "why not be honest with me? I am certainly not a person to be afraid of. I am very largely in your hands over the Tapilow affair, and, as you know, I have seen too much of the world to consider trifles. I do not believe that Mr. Delora came to London to sell his crop of coffee. I do not believe that you are ignorant of his affairs.

input: Make use of the article to answer the questions. LOS ANGELES, California (CNN) -- A will from Michael Jackson written in 2002 has been located, but it may be one of several, the Jackson family lawyer said Tuesday. 

Though a 2002 Michael Jackson will has been located, the family's lawyer says there may be others. 

"We need a certain amount of time to look at that," lawyer Londell McMillan said, referring to whether other wills exist. "I don't personally know, but it's possible." 

Until now, the Jackson family has said it has not seen a will for the singer. 

Without a legal will, the division of his estate would be decided in court. 

The 2002 will surfaced Monday after a Los Angeles judge gave the singer's mother, Katherine Jackson, temporary control of her son's "tangible personal property." 

The pop icon's three children -- ages 7, 11 and 12 -- were also placed under the temporary guardianship of Katherine Jackson. 

McMillan said he has seen the will but would not disclose its details. 

"There is a process called 'probating the will' that will validate any will in due course," he said. 

Probate is the legal process to prove whether a will is authentic and valid. The process is used to pass on items in the will from the deceased to the beneficiaries. 

The biological mother of Jackson's two oldest children, Debbie Rowe, will be invited to a hearing Monday in which the judge will consider who should have custody of them. She has not publicly indicated whether she will challenge the Jacksons for custody.  1. Whose will is this article talking about?
