What's th' use iv buildin' a boat that's lible to tip an' spill us all into th' wet? Turn th' matther over to th' firm iv Wiggins, Schultz, O'Mally, Eckstein, Wopoppski, Billotti, Gomez, Olson, an' McPherson, an' lave us have th' law on him." "I don't suppose, Hinnissy, I ought to be gettin' off me little jokes on a seeryous matther like this. What's it all about, says ye?
"I've stopped him for the time being, anyhow," said Adair, exulting like a boy. "If we only had a decent weapon we could get them all, one at a time." "This was crude," Ford commented. "Eckstein will think up something better for the next attempt." It was a prophecy which found its fulfilment after another sweating interval of watchfulness.
In doing them for you, even though I could not see that they were getting anywhere. "Everything seemed quite at a standstill when I left Ravinia Thursday, but on Thursday night the Williamsons dined with Mr. Eckstein and went to the park with him; and they all went home with father and Paula afterward, Fournier and LaChaise, too; and everything happened at once.
By the time he returns it will be too late for him to hedge. MacMorrogh will see to that." Eckstein nodded. "I made a point of that with Brian," he said. "The minute the word is given he is to throw a little army of graders upon the new roundabout. But Ford won't find out. He'll be too busy on this end of the line with the track-layers. I'm a little nervous about Merriam, though."
"Well, I got one for you, too Leon Eckstein says he thinks you're an awfully sweet girl and will make some man a grand wife." Clara giggled and fingered the gold-fringe edging of Miss Sternberger's sleeve. She spoke slowly and stressed each word alike. "Well, there's a fellow just got here from Paris yesterday says you sure know how to dress and that you got a swell figure." "Who said it?"
Fred Eckstein, a man of decided ability, who perhaps was one of those in South Africa who had judged the situation with accuracy would have preferred to see the crisis delayed. Mr.
Captain Count Karl von Eckstein got up, and took his hat down from the pegs, pulled on his gloves, and said deliberately: "I am very much obliged to you, Mr Castellan, for your warning, which I ought to have taken at first, but I hope there is still time. I will go and telephone for my motor at once." "Yes, come along and do it," said Castellan, catching him by the arm.
Penfield's face was ashen, and he was cravenly thankful that the lamplight was dim, and that his chair was in the shadow. This was more than he had bargained for; more by the price of a man's life. Eckstein was lifting himself by painful inches from his chair. A silence as of the grave had fallen upon the two MacMorroghs. It was the senior partner who broke it. "'Tis as ye say, Misther Eckstein.
Then I came on the scene at the inopportune moment, and after North had carefully issued instructions intended to delay me as much as possible, he sent Eckstein in post-haste by way of Jack's Canyon and the stage trail to get ahead of me.
That's why he was so for keeping things from me. We painted the woodwork white and gave a couple of coats to a little brown crib I had picked up second hand. He was for buying an enameled one on casters he loved the best. Next night next night he didn't come home and at eight o'clock the following morning the extras were on the street about the killing. Even then I didn't tie up Lon and Eckstein.
