"Stolen it!
And then, before my dazed brain could work itself back through the mazes of memory, there came the whir of a taxi in the street, an imperative ring of the bell, a tramp of masculine footsteps in the hall, and then my husband's arms were around me, his lips murmuring disjointed, incoherent sentences against my cheek. "Madge!
After his clients had gone, Gavan Blake sat for half an hour almost dazed. If Peggy's story was true, then Mary Grant was an outcast instead of a great heiress. He puzzled over the affair for a long time, and at last his clear brain saw a way out of all difficulties.
Blinded and dazed by the blast of the revolver, he stumbled mechanically after his leader.

"Why are you in prison?" asked the vagrant, feebly. "Oh, nothin' much witness in shootin' scrape talk 'bout aft' while." "O Ristofalo," groaned Richling, as they entered, "my wife! my wife!
