Poor Jakob! sore must have been his perplexity when, in the hope of slinking into his wardrobe-room unobserved, we had come open-eyed upon him in his soiled array. At the cost of apparent rudeness, arising chiefly from shyness, he had silently disappeared, the old servant following his example.
"That patient's address that I had forgotten, Miss Harrison, is the corner of the Park and Ellington Avenue." "Thank you." She played the game well, was quite calm. He admired her coolness. Certainly she was pretty, and certainly, too, she was interested in him. The hurt to his pride of a few nights before was healed. He went whistling into the wardrobe-room.
There seemed no chance for Wilson to speak to Miss Harrison again. But he was clever with the guile of the pursuing male.
