CHAPTER III.

Almost as speedily as he had told
the Judge he would, Broadway pre-
pared to leave Jonesville. There was
stormy session when the old lawyer
told Abner Jones that he had made the
revelation to the boy, but the old mans
threats against him we're quickly ST.
fenced when the judge reminded him
that what he had proposed to him was
fraud and that an action for conspiracy
might be brought against him.
The car wheels sang to Broadway
as he journeyed west and southwark.
He gave cigars to the conductor, to
the trainmen, to the engineer as soon
as the train waited long enough for
him TO get to him. He bought all the
newsboy's papers, novels, magazines
and sent him through the cars to give
them to the ladies'. Then, on his re-
turn alight with smiles, he bought the
last ounce of his candy and told him
to appropriate it to the use of his own
sweettooth.
Arriving in New York a red-capped
