Frank, albeit scarcely in mood for meet

was presently introduced to Mrs. Crofton and
the two girls. MIR. Crofton, Of course, said
nothing to them of the object which had
brought him thither, and as Frank mentioned
his intention of paying the Churchills fly

was the chief aim of his journey. Mrs. Crof'

Among the first to reach the scene of

any city can claim a Chief of the Fire De.
