Scarce a half a dozen bundles were the result of the tour among the shops. "Mrs. Chadwick's, James." The call lasted half an hour. As a story-teller I am supposed to be everywhere, to follow the footsteps of each and all of my characters, and with a fidelity and a perspicacity nothing short of the marvelous.
Chadwick's year of lease is n't over; I suppose she cannot be turned out by main force, and if we should ask her to leave the house it might go unrented for a month or two, and the loss of that money might be as much as the loss of ten or fifteen dollars a month for the rest of the year. I could complain of her to Dr. George, but there again I am in trouble.
How far from New York are you now?" "About forty miles." "Good! Try to land here before sunset." "Why?" asked Jack. "Nestorville has a little surprise for you!" replied Mr. Chadwick, and Jack heard him chuckle. "Good for Mr. Chadwick!" cried Dick in glee, for Jack had so arranged the instrument that all of them in the Wondership could hear Mr. Chadwick's voice.
Once more Jack, oppressed by a vague fear, sent out the words: "Hullo, High Towers!" The reply came with startling swiftness, relieving the party from the mental strain. In one voice the professor included they yelled, "Hurrah!" "Congratulations!" came Mr. Chadwick's voice in return. "Why the delay?" asked Jack, smiling with "A small lever snapped. It required a few minutes to repair it.
When this question had been dismissed, Mr. Chadwick proceeded to devote himself almost exclusively to the great work of his life, the Sanitary Movement. The Bishop of London, in 1839, moved in the Lords, that the inquiry which had been made at Mr. Chadwick's instance by Drs.
Jupe and Hank Hawkins, the handy man, picked the unconscious man up and carried him to bed, where he was made comfortable. Jack and Tom made an investigation of the workshop. At first the cut on Mr. Chadwick's head had given Jack the impression that he might have been the victim of foul play. But a brief survey of the place soon dispelled these conclusions.
"They know pretty well what they have to expect from us; they know how we shall meet any refractory spirit on their part; they know that we are not afraid of them. And now I'll just step into Chadwick's, and tell him what I've done; and then I'll go up to the palace, and answer this petition of theirs."
He might have been signalling "full speed ahead" from the bridge of an Atlantic liner. Chadwick's hours aboard his Atlantic liner were so long as to interfere seriously, not only with his leisure, but with his political activities. And this irked him the more for the reason that at that period local politics in the Five Towns were extremely agitated and interesting.
"All right, Jupe, we'll be right over," said Jack, "just as soon as we've got some of this grease off our hands." The boys' workshop was equipped with a washbasin and they soon made themselves presentable. Then they hurried to Mr. Chadwick's workshop. They found him standing before a roughly-built table on which were ranged some odd-looking bits of apparatus.
Chadwick's first situation after his defection from the police was that of night watchman in an earthenware manufactory down by the canal at Shawport. He accepted it regretfully, and he firmly declined to see the irony of fate in forcing such a post on a man who conscientiously objected to night duty. He did not maintain this post long, and his reasons for giving it up were kept a dark secret.
