Renford's comment was brief. "By Jove!" he observed. Harvey went more deeply into the question. "What makes you think they meet down here?" he asked. "I saw some fellows cutting out of here last night. And you say ye've seen them here, too. I don't see what object they could have down here if they weren't the League holding a meeting. I don't see what else a chap would be after."
That profound thinker, Mr Tony Weller, was never so correct as in his views respecting the value of an alibi. There are few better things in an emergency. It was Renford's turn next morning to get up and feed the ferrets. Harvey had done it the day before.
He risked it. When the bell rang for the quarter to eleven interval the ferrets were in their new home, happily discussing a piece of meat Renford's contribution, held over from the morning's meal, and O'Hara, looking as if he had never left the passage for an instant, was making his way through the departing mathematical class to apologise handsomely to Mr Banks as was his invariable custom for his disgraceful behaviour during the morning's lesson.
However, he decided on this occasion to feed the mind at the expense of the body. He accepted Renford's invitation. "What is it?" he asked, as they made for the football field. "What's been happening?" "It's frightfully exciting," said Renford. "What's up?" "You mustn't tell any one." "All right. Of course not."
