Jump in with me and ride down to the Pennsylvania Ferry. I may need you." Ferris' brain was in a whirl. He had intended to double around and reach Wade's house, where he was a secret guest, during the excitable ordeal of the election. Too well he knew the dangers of setting his own foot in Wall Street.
