'If he wants to meet you, replied Michael, 'observe this: it is because he has found his address-book, has been to the house that got the statue, and-mark my words! is moving at the instigation of the murderer. 'I should be very sorry to think so, said Pitman; 'but I still consider it my duty to Mr Sernitopolis. . . 'Pitman, interrupted Michael, 'this will not do.
The arranging of the correspondence went forward in a spacious room; the letters which it was difficult to deliver were handed over to a number of specialists, who sat in an adjoining apartment and studied all the changes caused by the transfer of troops. They found help in an address-book containing a list of all the field formations.
You will be sorry to give up your work, won't you, my dear?" asked Miss Merivale mechanically, as she watched Clare turning over her address-book. "Mother has promised that I shall come back later on and stay with Aunt Metcalfe. I shall like that better than this. One gets tired of a flat after a time. But here is Miss Sampson's address. Will you write to her, or shall I tell her what you want?"
He looked at the visiting card before leaving it on the brass salver on the table, where letters and reports were placed for the Captain whenever he was out; and being an intelligent man and considerably impressed by what the Princess had told him, he promptly wrote the name, address, and telephone number in the address-book which hung by a string beside the instrument.
If she had wanted to test his state of mind, she could not have found a better way. Instantly he was all eagerness. Nothing would do but that they should plan the party at once, set the date, make out a list of friends to be invited. She was ready with pad and pencil and her old address-book, which had lain for many days untouched in her desk. "Shall we have Frances Maury?" she suggested.
On the little calendar, a pencil-cross was set against to-day Wednesday, another against Friday. What for? Music-lessons! He reached to a pigeon-hole, and took out her address-book. "H Harmost, 305A, Marylebone Road," and against it the words in pencil, "3 P.M." Three o'clock. So that was her hour!
He thought it might well be that he had obtained an exaggerated notion of their deformity, and if Miss Beeks merely succeeded in convincing him of that the gain would be something. He picked up the address-book during the morning and ascertained that she lived in a large apartment-house in Broadway, distant from his stables less than a block.
One of his first duties, Charity told him, was to call at the Hyperfilm Studio and try to engage that Mr. Ferriday for director and learn the ropes. "While you're there you might inquire about that little girl you pulled out of the pool. I sent her there. They promised her a job. Her name was I have it at home in my address-book. I'll telephone it to you." And she did.
Before they reached the door Pica met them, breathing hard and muttering Sicilian imprecations on the man who had wounded his master and got away; but while the Captain was being taken upstairs the orderly lit a candle and went to the telephone in the hall. He glanced at the address-book and then without hesitation he asked the central office to give him Princess Chiaromonte's number.
Boddington said he thought he could not be mistaken; but he would look at his address-book. He did, and said it was certainly 119 Gloucester Place; "Perhaps she has left," said he. "She was very healthy an excellent patient. But I should not have advised her to move for a day or two more." Sir Charles was sore puzzled. He dashed off to the agents, Parker & Ellis.
