Surprise, rage, fear camo and went,

When the last word was finished,
the lawyer could hold in no longer
and burst into hearty laugh. The
stranger glanced up in surprise, and
his look of cool impudence returned.

handsome double seated sleigh dash

William, we have been looking for
you! Come and take tea with us,
won't youi''
"Thanks! Delighted!" And the
judge threw away his cigar and
climbed in.
