I can tell you this I am the last man in the world to wish harm of any sort to Mr. Breton." Miss Baylis relieved her feelings with a scornful sniff.

Would this large-hearted man turn the keys of his money chest over to me if he knew I were an ex-convict, liable at any moment to be re-arrested for having broken my parole? I was silent so long that he began again. "Looking around for a spade to begin the grave-digging?" he asked, with a sober smile.
She might go to her grave loving you to distraction, but she would never have an ex-convict for the father of her children not if she knew it. It's in the Everton blood. Anybody who knew Phineas Everton as you and I did in the old school-days, ought to know exactly what to expect of his daughter." I sat up quickly, and the lights in the high-swung drawing-room chandelier began to turn red for me.

The cashier of the bank identified in the agency's gallery the picture of the man who had brought in the two hundred and fifty dollar check, and he in turn proved to be another ex-convict well known in the business, whose whereabouts in New York were not difficult to ascertain. He was "located" and "trailed" and all his associates noted and followed.
It was "Babe" who broke the silence by remarking: "We are indeed lucky, Joe. Just think of what would have been our fate had we been arrested with the others. You would have been sent to a penal institution to emerge years later an ex-convict, a marked man forever afterwards, while I would have been sent to a home where I would have been forced to associate with the most degraded wretches.
