CHAPTER 4

CHAPTER I
The apartment uptown was at
the end of three darkish flights Of
stairs where always there seemed
to prevail mingled odor of dust,
tobacco and cookery running
largely to cabbage.
In time past the house had been
rather grand: stair-rails had been
gilded, mirrors had shimmered in
the lobby, doors had fit their cas-
fngs and a crystal chandelier had
burned all night inside the en-
trance.
But now the gliding was gray
and dead and the mirrors grinned
dejectedly through peeled quick
silver like hags through broken
teeth Time and ungentle ham
ding had warped the woodwork
and a thin, blue squirt of gas, the
merest suggestion of a light, illu-
mined the way of those who went
tu and out at night. Sometimes
even this was absent, for Ma
Cleary's tenants frequently devel-
oped intense aversion to light of
any sort.
Ma Cleary, however, knew her
stuff. When she, discovered her
halls in darkness she left them so
and was careful to be in bed and
asleep when significant noises de-
velc,,ed outside her door. Though,
as q matter of fact, one listening
at such times would have heard
her whisper, II dunno would it be
himself now, save us all!
Himself existed in sort of hit
and-Tniss splendor in the third floor
aps -tment--living room. bedroom.
ba.i all convenient to a couple OF
fiji e-escapes and the roof.
And now. noon of the day Mary
Smith decided to let her relatives
look out for themselves, he was
sitting in one easy chair with his
feet in another and the morning
newspaper on ais knees. And Ma
Cleary was bringing his breakfast.
And you're up. then, Danny

tirely. Whist, now, is it satin or

She drew back admiringly ana
the Spook glanced down at his
robe. 1t was brocaded green of
vivid shade that made his hair
orange by contrast and his hands
were very white and almost femi-
nine against the sheen.
"Y' like ii, Map" lie felt of the
texture, rubbing it between his fin
gers, staLding up to show o. its
magnificence. He took a childish
delight in expensive outer gar.
ments and Ma Cleary's face beamed
though she drew an apron corner
over her eyes.
And fair luck to you wit the
thing, me boy. | mind the time
