"You must kindly restrain your impatience for a few moments," he insisted. "This is a private conference. Your business with the Baron Maderstrom can be adjusted later." "It is my duty," Griffiths proclaimed impatiently, "to arrest that man as a spy. I have authority, granted me this morning in London."
"You knew that I was coming, then?" Richard demanded. "Naturally," Lessingham replied. "I had the great pleasure of arranging for your release." "Look here," Richard went on, "I'm groping about a bit. I don't understand. Forgive me if I run off the track. I'm not forgetting our friendship, Maderstrom, or what I owe to you since you came and found me at Wittenburg.
"Maderstrom, then," Richard asked, with a sudden more complete apprehension of the affair, "was over here to spy upon you?" "That's the ticket," Sir Henry assented. Richard frowned. "And he bribed Philippa and Helen with my liberty!" "Don't you worry about that," his brother-in-law begged. "They must have known by instinct that a chap like Maderstrom couldn't do any harm." "Where is he now?"
"It was a faked chart, then, of course?" Richard demanded breathlessly. "And quite the cleverest I ever prepared," Sir Henry acknowledged. "I can assure you that it would have taken in Von Tirpitz himself, if he'd got hold of it." "But where is Maderstrom now, sir?" Richard asked. Sir Henry moved his head towards the window, where Philippa, for the last few moments, had softly taken her place.
