You are reasonably sure that you haven't been recognized here by any of our local people?" "I've kept the 'make-up' on most of the time. I've been in Mr. Gantry's office a couple of times, and in Mr. Kittredge's once, and neither of them caught on to me." "That's good. You'd better go now.

Sheriff," he said, solemnly, "remove that child from the presence of the court." And the said Elnathan Daniel Kittredge went out gleefully kicking in the arms of the law.

She had met him through mutual friends, for he was well connected socially in New York, and had soon grown fond of him.
"Call the first witness!" ordered the judge, and amidst the excitement caused by these ominous words a small door opened and a woman entered leaning on a guard. She was dressed simply in black and heavily veiled, but her girlish figure showed that she was young. As she appeared, Kittredge started violently.
