Von Kerber constituted himself postman, and he brought the missive to Dick in person, but not until the Aphrodite had entered the canal after shipping her French pilot and search-light. He was annoyed, though he veiled his ill-humor under an affected carelessness. "How came you to give Port Said as a port of call to one of your correspondents?" he asked.
She too had her foreign correspondents and knew just what was going on at Florence and what people were up to in Leipsic and Dresden.

Where his own scrutiny could not penetrate, he employed the aid of correspondents. He knew what workmen had money in the local savings-bank, and the amount of each deposit.
