Spies In DOVCI' lgCOIIfill1ll'd from Pagc .335 a bowler hat and what I hope was an official glare, I stumped up the steps and knocked at the door. Wilson's face appeared around the edge of the door and he murmured I-Iello! in a scared tone. Evidently he was suspicious of me. Good afternoonfl' I replied and pushed my way pompously into the room. Are we alone? I inquired bluntly. Why yes. He immediately started to whine as he realized that his suspicions were all too true. I couldn't go and get it, honestly I couldn't! My hand was crushedg I was un- consciousg you can't do anything to me for that! I couldn't help it! By this time the poor wretch was almost sobbing and beads of perspiration appeared on his forehead.

How do you do? I replied, and then handed him my own letter explaining why I had no success in finding the depth below the first iioor of the ammunition magazine. I put on a look of ill-concealed concern, and whispered, Where's JH? I heard the authorities were on to him and he'd leftl' 'tWell, he did have to move, though there's nothing serious. You'll find it all here. He tapped the envelope which lay on the table significantly. This was just another stroke of luck! There was about one chance in fifty of our getting an address in the message, and we had gotten it the second time.
