Leaving the hotel, Maitland strobe
quietly but rapidly across the car
tracks to the sidewalk bordering the

down upon him, yelping in chorus. He
motioned to the foremost, jumped into

An astOnished horse, reused from a
droop-eared lethargy, was yanked al
most by main strength out of the cab
rank and into the middle of the ave-
nue.. Before he could recover, the
long whiplash had leaped out over
the roof Of the vehicle, and he found
himself stretching away up the avenue
on dead run.
Yet to Maitland the pace seemed
deadly slow. He fidgeted on the seat
in an agony of Impotence, dozen
times feeling in waistcoat pocket FOR
his latch keys. They were there, and
his fingers itched to use them.

knew that their pace was furious, and
