We soon laid our business before him, and he ordered a book containing a list of the tax-paying miners of Ballarat to be brought, and which he consulted, for a few minutes, in silence. "There is no such name as Robert Herrets in the book, but there is a Robert Henrets, and that may be the person you are in pursuit of. I will ask if any of my men know the latter."
Henrets," the officer said. "My name is Herrets," the miner said, "and why you will persist in calling me Henrets is beyond my comprehension." "One name is as good as the other what is the difference? both begin with H and end with s." We found that the officer's description of the man answered very well. His hair was sandy, his eyes were blue, and his skin was very fair and beardless.
He touched a bell, and the policeman who was on duty at the door entered. "James," inquired the inspector, "do you know a miner here named Robert Henrets?" "Yes, sir; young fellow sandy hair blue eyes scar over the left one saves his money is doing well never heard that he was a suspicious character," answered the officer, promptly. "Pshaw!" returned Mr.
Brown, pettishly; "you think that every person I ask about is a rogue; you are mistaken. Show these gentlemen to the shaft that Henrets is sinking, or the mine that he is working, and attend to their orders." "Yes, sir; I know where he is; works the old 'Dugget mine; smart lad makes money pays his tax regular, and never growls 'cos he has to."
