fish a modus vivendi with Bland. but
he. fearing his own guilty COINCIDENCE.
had made no effort to meet any Of them
half way. II Smith could persuade
Bland to meet one Of The Brother
hood" his I. o. US would be returned
to him the morning after the interview
had. taken place.
This proposal seemed TO Smith an en-
inently agreeable and satisfactory one
although Bland was an old friend OF his
but Smith soothed hts elastic conscience
with the reflection that no harm was
intended to Bland and that he fSmith)
would be a considerable gamer by this
proposed Interview. Further. ne con-
sidered BANDS action with regard 10
The Brotherhood as qutxotic and alb
surd. 1t was the duty OF government
detectives 10 look after The Brother
hood" and Bland ought not to have
mixed himself up in the matter. Bland
was always thrusting himself into other
/ peoples business.
Bland bad the sense to keep his ad-
dress hidden even from the proprietors
Of the journal 10 which he contributed
his incendiary articles on the doings OF
The brotherhood" but one day as
smith was loahng down John Street.
Bedford Row. in order TO make short
cut through Gray's Inn. he saw Bland
coming home after having evidently
been out all night. He followed him up
the steps and touched him on the shout

Bland was in their hands. his doom only

Irish-American way. and at once pro-
ceeded to make the necessary arrange

a slight tap at the door. Thinking it
was the maid with his supper Bland
shouted Come In. Mary"
