Dane had already arranged for the following Monday, for on Wednesday afternoon, following a conversation over the telephone, Sperry and I had a private sitting with Miss Jeremy in Sperry's private office.
"Sperry says Brent has some good ideas about acting. So, you'll learn something maybe enough to enable me to put you in a good position if Brent gets tired and if you still want to be independent, as you call it." "I hope so," said Susan absently.
By next week Sperry and I will have got together a scenario for the play and when Sperry reads it to Fitzalan we'll get an advance of at least five hundred. So you and I will take a nice room and bath uptown as a starter and we'll be happy again happier than before." "No, I'm going to support myself," said Susan promptly. "Trash!" cried Spenser, smiling tenderly at her.
Dane's chair. I resented the way Sperry would clear his throat. I read in the morning paper Herbert Robinson's review of a book I had liked, and disagreed with him. Disagreed violently. I wanted to call him on the telephone and tell him that he was a fool. I felt old, although I am only fifty-three, old and bitter, and tired. With the fall of twilight, things changed somewhat. I was more passive.
Holcomb was now suffering under the latter a subtle anger that would undoubtedly have meant serious injury to the immaculate Sperry had he been unlucky enough to have crossed his path at the moment. As Blakeman, little by little, unfolded more of the doctor's villainy, Holcomb's muscles relaxed and his indignation, which had risen by degrees until it boiled within him, now settled to reason.
"But they'll run better sooner or later." "Sure!" cried Sperry. "You needn't worry about the play. That's all right. How I envy women!" "Why?" "Oh you have Rod between you and the fight. While I I've got to look out for myself." "So have I," said Susan. "So has everyone, for that matter." "Believe me, Mrs. Spenser," cried Sperry, earnestly, "you can count on Rod. No matter what "
And if it is nonsense it is such thrilling nonsense!" I find that the solution of the Arthur Wells mystery for we did solve it takes three divisions in my mind. Each one is a sitting, followed by an investigation made by Sperry and myself. But for some reason, after Miss Jeremy's second sitting, I found that my reasoning mind was stronger than my credulity.
If Robert Brent bothered with half the affairs that are credited to him, he'd have no time or strength not to speak of brains to do plays." "I guess even the busiest man manages to fit a woman in somehow," observed Susan. "A woman or so." Sperry laughed. "I guess yes," said he. "But as to Brent, most of the scandal about him is due to a fad of his hunting for an undeveloped female genius who "
Sperry broke the circle and coming to her, took her pulse. It was, he reported, very rapid. "You can move and talk now if you like," he said. "She's in trance, and there will be no more physical demonstrations." Mrs. Dane was the first to speak. I was looking for my fountain pen, and Herbert was again examining the stand. "I believe it now," Mrs. Dane said.
She watched the little clock at the side of the bed. At the end of an hour to the minute, she interrupted him in the middle of a sentence. "I must go now," said she, rising. "Sit down," he cried. "You can stay all day. The doctor says it will do me good to have you to talk with. And Sperry isn't coming until tomorrow." "I can't do it," said she. "I must go." He misunderstood her avoiding glance.
