It was the pinhole photograph, a little blurry, but quite convincing. On a desk in the picture was a pile of bills. McLoughlin was shoving them away from him toward Bennett.
"He looks as if he wished you and everybody else dead," said Billy. "He has a face to make you have bad dreams. Well, we have proved two things to-day." "That your pinhole camera is all right," said Percival, "and that this mysterious man with the white mustache is still in the neighborhood. H'm! I should think he would avoid it." "I hoped he might," said Jack musingly.
Prince Harweda felt quite sure that the cracks of light were wider, and on going up to one and putting his eye close to it, as he would to a pinhole in a paper, he was glad to find that he could tell the greenness of the grass from the blue of the sky. "Ah, my pretty bird, my pretty bird!" he cried joyfully, "I have had a glimpse of the great beautiful outside world, and you shall have it too."
