What?" he said. "Do I Oh; yes, rather! I say, one of the blighters has just loosed a rattlesnake into Gridley Quayle's bedroom through the transom!" Aline rose from her seat and left the room softly. The Honorable Freddie read on, unheeding. Ashe Marson had not fallen far short of the truth in his estimate of the probable effect on Mr.
