It's glorious news And with you on guard here, I'm not afraid to carry it away down the mountain and to Reuton. I'll be with you in a moment, ready for the journey." She called Mrs. Norton and the two went rather timidly up-stairs together. Mr. Magee turned to his companions in the room, and mentally called their roll.
I might compare you to another with yellow locks but I leave that to my younger er colleagues. Mr. Cargan good-by. My acquaintance with you I shall always look back on " But the mayor of Reuton, Max and Bland closed in on the old man. "Now look here, Doc," interrupted Cargan. "You're bluffing. Do you get me? You're trying to put something over.
"Let's not be silly," she replied. "You know what brought me here. I know what brought you. There are three sides, and only one is honest. I hope, so very much, that you are on that side." "Upon my word " began Magee. "Will it interest you to know," she continued, "I saw the big mayor of Reuton in the village this morning? With him was his shadow, Lou Max. Let's see you had the first key, Mr.
Kendrick drew up chairs for himself and Magee, and they sat down. Behind them the bulky Mrs. Norton dozed, dreaming perhaps of her Reuton boarding-house, while Miss Thornhill and the professor talked intermittently in low tones. The ranks at Baldpate were thinning rapidly; before long the place must settle back with a sigh in the cold, to wait for its first summer girl. "Mr.
So, without making his return known in Reuton, three nights ago he accompanied me here. Three nights it seems years. I had secured keys for us both from John Bentley.

So Kendrick let himself in by a side door while I engaged you and Bland in the office.
"Why, if I'd had that much money at your age, I'd be a millionaire to-day." "You get the package," suggested the mayor, "take twenty thousand out, and slip the rest to me. No questions asked. I guess there ain't nobody mixed up in this affair will go up on the housetops and shout about it when we get back to Reuton." "Well, " began Bland. He was lost.
Over his shoulder, as he passed to the platform, he saw them look into each other's eyes, and he felt that the memory of the admiral's game would in time cease to haunt David Kendrick. A shadow had fallen upon the train the shadow of the huge Reuton station. In the half-light on the platform Mr. Magee encountered the mayor of Reuton.
It's all right when you know who the other fellow is, but when it's all so creepy I was afraid. So I ran here." "The thing to do," approved Mr. Magee. "Don't worry. I'll get the money for you. I'll get it if I have to slay the city administration of Reuton in its tracks." "You trust me?" asked the girl, with a little catch in her voice.
"There isn't any last up here." And with a sidelong glance at the new Eve in his mountain Eden, he turned away to the kitchen. "Now," whispered Magee to Miss Norton, "I'll get you that package. I'll prove that it was for you I fought and bled the mayor of Reuton. Watch for our chance when I see you again I'll have it in my pocket." "You mustn't fail me," she replied. "It means so much." Mr.
