Now, what did you do to Kitty Conover last night that decided her to accept that fool proposition? She sent her acceptance after she left you. "I did not know that. I played for her. She became music-struck, and I took advantage of it kissed her. Then she told me she was going to marry you." "And that is why you asked me if I would trust you with a daughter of mine?" "Yes." "Conscience.
Had the New York bomb squad known of the existence of this den, the short hair on their necks would have risen. "Well?" greeted Karlov, moodily. "I have found the man in the dress suit." "He and the Conover girl left that office building together this morning, and I followed them to Park Row. This man uses the loft of the building for his home. No elevator goes up unless you have credentials.
He turned it over and spent double the time in examining it that he did on my introductory letter, and said, slowly, "I think I will risk sending this car-load," and wrote an order to his assistant to send it forthwith to Adrian. I thankfully returned to my duty of calling on the list of the benevolently inclined wealthy persons whose names Dr. Duffield and J. F. Conover had furnished. Rev. Dr.
Weariness coaxed me to another sweet resting-place, the home of my dear friends J. F. and Hannah Conover. I called on a few persons whose names had been given me by Mr. Palmer, from whom I received $17; and from a few others I received $15. John Bagley gave $10; another gave $5; Rev. J. A. Baughman, $5; and Mr. King, his son-in-law, $5. I also called on Governor Crapo, who gave $5.
In it Hawksley gave half of his possessions to Kitty and half to Stefani Gregor. In case the latter was dead the sum total was to go to Kitty. "I got you into a muddle; this will take you out of it. Karlov will kill me. I don't know how. I am his obsession. He will sleep better with me off his mind. Will this hold legally?" "Yes. But why Kitty Conover, a stranger?"
We did not care to frighten you." "I'm not frightened," said Kitty. "Nope. But we wish to the Lord you were, Miss Conover. When you want to come home, wire me and I'll motor out for you." Another fragment. Karlov's agent sought his chief and found him in the cellar of the old house, sinisterly engaged. The wall bench was littered with paraphernalia well known to certain chemists.
There followed a conversation on ailments and their treatment, in which Mrs. Conover joined. Marmaduke was quite happy. He knew that the two elderly ladies admired the soundness of his views and talked to him as to one of themselves.
Still she could not rid herself of the feeling that alien hands had been rifling her belongings. Not Bernini, decidedly. Remembering Cutty's advice about opening the door with her foot against it, she peered out. No emissary of Bolshevisim here. A weary little messenger boy with a long box in his arms called her name. "Miz Conover?" "Yes."
They got together, and out of that first simple discussion came all sorts of new difficulties for Delafield Methodism to face and master. Manford Conover was a preacher with a business man's training and viewpoint. He may have mentioned his official title, when he first appeared, but nobody remembered it.
As he wheeled round the corner of the parallel street he almost bumped into Hawksley, who had a policeman in tow. "Officer," said the man with the boy's face, "this is Federal business. Aliens. Come along. There may be trouble. If there should be any shooting don't bother with the atmosphere. Pick out a real target." "Anarchists?" "About the size of it." "Miss Conover?" asked Hawksley. "Safe.
