theory.
Jacqueline, very much against
her will, came down into the grubby
parlor of her rooming house to
meet the mysterious gentleman
whose card had been brought up
by her landlady. The visitor who

His head was bald, with a fringe
of iron gray hair; on a sharp beak
of a nose, polished, rimless glasses
rested, secured by silk ribbon ter
minating in a little mechanical
reel on his vest.
