"Do you want to bet on that proposition?" Sloan made no reply. He had allowed his wrath to boil for a few minutes merely as a luxury. Now he was thinking seriously of the scheme. "It sounds like moonshine," he said at last, "but I don't know as it is. How are you going to get your barges?" "I've got one already. It leaves Milwaukee to-night." Sloan looked him over.
It was from Sloan, who told him that he had been unexpectedly called to the Pacific coast on a hurried trip, and that, while he did not have time to visit the Croix d'Or, he very earnestly hoped that Dick would arrange, on receipt of the letter, to meet him in Seattle, and named a date. "Whe-e-w! You got to move some, ain't you?
Slavin and Yorke walked slowly down the hospital steps and climbed into the Police drag again. Sloan gathered up his lines and swung around on his high seat. "Hullo!" he remarked sleepily. "Here you are again, eh? Begun to think you were both in there for keeps! Well, did you see him?" "Yes!" answered Yorke tonelessly, avoiding the teamster's eyes, "We've seen him. Home, James!"

It must be a longer period than the longest life "in the world's hale and undegenerate days," that will make me forget so dear a friend as Mr. Sloan.
