At breakfast on the morning of the day Blair was to start East, his mother, looking over the top of her newspaper at him, said abruptly: "Blair, I have something to say to you before you go. Be at my office at the Works at ten-fifteen." She looked at him amiably, then pushed back her chair. "Nannie! Get my bonnet. Come! Hurry! I'm late!"
The distance from the mainland to the island of Catalina is only about twenty miles, and the steamer from San Pedro makes the trip in something like two hours and a half. At ten o'clock in the morning Clancy and Hill went aboard, at ten-fifteen the boat got under way, and promptly at ten-seventeen Hiram became seasick.
She gave me her word that she would drop the whole thing. A goody-goody dig like her would not break it. I'll tell you as soon as I come back. Come here at ten. I shall not be later than ten-fifteen. I intend to put up a 'Busy' sign tonight so as to keep the girls out of here before I start. They know better than to try to get by it, too."
"Miss Mathewson, my aunt telephones that my father and mother are both sick, each anxious to distraction about the other, she about them both, and under the weather herself. If you and I can catch the ten-fifteen to-night we can be there by two, and by leaving there at four we can be back here in time for the morning's operations.
Never mind me, Ted. Where is the gang?" "They're all down in the Grotto." "Go on and join them; don't stay here, it isn't necessary. I'll be all right, I say, and I can ring if I'm not. Come in in the morning, won't you?" "Sure. The train goes at ten-fifteen, you know. We can't get along without you very well." "Oh, I'll be fit in the morning. So long, old man."
What time was that, now?" "As near as I can recollect, about ten-fifteen to ten-thirty," answered the landlord. "They'd been talking together for a good hour in that corner where they usually sat. But dear me," he went on, looking from one to the other of his two visitors, "I'm quite sure that gentleman who's just left doesn't know of this murder!
"They said there was one at nine-forty-six," replied Clint, "but this this officer says it doesn't stop at Brimfield." "We'll soon find out, boys." The Chief consulted a time-table and nodded. "Brimfield at ten-fifteen." He looked at the big clock on the wall. "Seven-forty-five," he muttered. "I guess we can make it." He put the receiver to his ear once more. "Operator? Wharton, 137-M, please.
She could neither see nor hear the train now. "It's nine-fifty-five," replied the chauffeur. "The train is due at New City at ten-fifteen." "Twenty minutes yet. I'm sure we can make it." Cora made that declaration with her cheeks flushing and her bright eyes ablaze with excitement. "Won't you, let me take the wheel?" asked Paul. "I am afraid that this heavy driving is too much for you."
Next morning he called again at the Metropole before the ladies were about, but to his chagrin, he learnt from the blue-and-gold concierge that Monsieur Courtin, of the Ministry of Justice, had left at ten-fifteen o'clock on the previous night by the rapide for Paris. He had been recalled urgently, and a special coupe-lit had been reserved for him from Ventimiglia.
These brilliant people that suggest using more tubes to a ray-power bank forget the last tube has to handle the entire output of all the others, and modulate it correctly. If the enemy has a better tube it will be too bad for us." Morey was frankly worried. "My end is all set, Morey. How soon will you be ready?" Arcot asked. "'Bout ten-fifteen minutes."
