King, Prince Norman went straight to
the cottage of the cook and told him he

The story thus far:

the purpose Of obtaining help. He
gives Holmes and Watson a clipping,

and reliable young man named VIM

that he is always taking photographs
and running to the cellar 10 develop
his plates. Wilson is u wldowcr with
out "A family, and n girl of fourteen
keeps his place clean and does n little
cooking. Spaulding told Wilson OF the
vacancy in the League and suggested
that Wilson, with his fiery red hair,
apply. Wilson did, with Spaulding,
and WAS accepted out OF scores and
scores of men, by the manager OF the
League.
This man, MIR. Duncan Ross, was
disappointed 20 find Wilson not 8
mar with n family. However, Wilson
set 20 work. His duties consisted only
IN copying the Encyclopedia Brltannlc'

he forgot the ball and sat on top Of
the high wall and stared.
F1orine looked up at him and smiled,
and then and there Prince Norman lost
his heart, so that when the King com
mandcd that he should choose a Princess
and marry, he told him his choice wa:
already made.
But though Florine and the Prince
had met many, many times, the gooo
cook and his wife, who loved FlorinG
as a daughter, knew nothing about these
meetings.
Prince Norman knew that if he was
to have Florine for his wife there wa:
no time to lose, for the Hing had spoken
and unless he married Florine at once
something might be done that would
separate them forever.
