by the Twelfth Night club this Mid.
night Masquer, as he was termed, had
held New Orleans gripped in terror

the past month he appeared at least
once a week, now at some private ball

huge goggles and mask, and leathern
clothes of a service aviator. On these
occasions the throbbing roar of an air

it was popular gossip that he landed
on the roof of his designated victims
and made his getaway in the same
manner-by airplane. No machine
had ever been seen, and the theory
was believed by some, hooted at by
others.
