He laughed mirthlessly, and shifted his position so that his bottle of whiskey was concealed. "No," he said. "I'm getting back sometime to-night." "Ah." Then Peter went on after a pause: "I'm glad things are going well for you. Restless told me he'd got an order from you for some buildings on your own land."
He came into the room, standing near the door, his set lips moving a very little, "You heard anything from Leviatt yet?" he questioned.
