McEachern's massive jaw protruded truculently in the manner that had scared good behavior into brawling East Siders. "I know your sort," he said. "I'll call your bluff. And you won't get till to-morrow, either. It'll be now." "'Why should we wait for the morrow? You are queen of my heart to-night," murmured Jimmy, encouragingly. "I'll expose you before them all. I'll tell them everything."
There were many open spaces, gardens and vacant lots in the street. The house in which Siders lodged belonged to a travelling salesman by the name of Winter. The man was away from home a great deal, and his wife, with her child and an old servant, lived in the lower part of the house, while the rooms occupied by Siders were in the upper story.
"What do you think about it yourself? Who do you think killed Siders?" "How can I know who it was? I only know it is not I," answered Graumann. "Did he have any enemies?" "No, none that I knew of, and he had few friends either." "You knew there was a sum of money missing from his rooms?"
He told Graumann that he was going in search of evidence which might throw light on the death of Siders, and comforted the prisoner with the assurance that he, Muller, believed Graumann innocent, and believed also that within a day or two he would return to G with proofs that his belief was the right one. Three days later Muller returned to Grunau and went at once to the Graumann home.
But after four o'clock in the afternoon they sometimes got together and did various things which improved their club-house. Some very fair chairs were constructed from empty soap boxes, and various contrivances were put together to guard against the intrusion of any East Siders or tramps while they were away at school.
"Some of the East Siders. They cater to him a lot, and you know," said Lance, with disgust, "tight as Purt is with money, if you flatter him you can pull his leg." "Dear me!" murmured Laura, "it is not in your province to use such slang, Lance. Leave that to Chet and Bobby." "Hey, Pretty!" Chet shouted to the very dandified lad, as he crossed the street toward them. "What luck, old top?"
He had questioned the servants of John Siders' former household, had found that the dead man received very few letters, only an occasional business communication from his bank. Of the few others, the servants knew nothing except that he had always thrown the envelopes carelessly in the waste paper basket and had never seemed to have any correspondence which he cared to conceal.
Albert had spent some years in America, in Chicago, and Siders liked to talk to him about things and people there. But one day Siders suddenly sold his property and moved to G . Two weeks later he was found dead in his lodgings in the city, murdered, and now now they have accused Albert of the crime." "On what grounds? oh, I beg your pardon, sir; I did not mean "
They climbed the almost perpendicular rocks on the opposite side of the stream, took headers, and footers, and siders from any height under five-and-twenty feet, dived, swam in every conceivable attitude, and without any apparent exertion, deep under the water, or upon its surface. But all this was only a preparation for the special sight we had come to see.
