But I am afraid the fame of our illustrious guest does not extend so far as Denver, for Mr. Copping asked what the flag was flying for, and when I told him he did not seem to be a bit the wiser. 'The stupid man! said Miss Paulo scornfully. 'And Professor Flick is just as bad. When I mentioned to him that his rooms were near those of Mr.
'Yes, quite right, Sir Rupert; spoils the track, don't it? 'But when Captain Sarrasin comes to he will tell us something. 'He will, Mrs. Sarrasin added earnestly.

'I hope you will be equal to it when it comes. 'How long shall I have to wait? 'Until I come for you. 'With the dagger, perhaps? Professor Flick said sarcastically.

Lubin folks are copping all kinds of good stuff here. You ain't with them, are you?" Jean braced herself against slipping into easy conversation with this man who seemed so friendly and unsuspicious and so conscience-free.
'Beg your pardon, Sir Rupert, one of the footmen said, coming respectfully but rather flushed towards the group, 'but this gentleman wished to go out into the grounds, and his Excellency was very particular in his orders that nobody was to go out until he came back.
