through the man. He clutched al his

way slowly along the street, almost firing

by its leisurely pace TO the generally pre-

girl. She looked al II again.
A man outside was holding up 10 the
window a large card, with a number q

Such a proceeding struck Hester as
rather out OF the ordinary. and she
stood at the window for moment or
