Daly waited a minute or two for his answer, and, finding that he said nothing, left him alone for a time, to make up his mind, telling him that he would return in about a quarter of an hour.
"In half an hour," is the gallant Daly's cheery reply. And thus it came about that history added one more touch of glory to a great achievement.

"Daly's, the Imperial, Hammerstein's, the Waldorf, up where you bought your outing goods, down to Proctor's, up the Boulevard to the Colonial Club, they piped you off. You see I only got familiar with them after a few nights. But now I have them dead to rights." "And where did they go from there?" growled Clayton.
