CHAPTER FoRTY-oNE


Aggie asked old Mr.. Waite where
Jack was and got the usual, irritable
response: "How should knowl In
his room, guess"
Aggie took the staircase in agile,
noiseless bounds. The floor above
was carpeted. There was n transom
over the door of the end room,
painted black to keep out the hall
light. In the hall, on a small ma
hogany table. stood a vase Of artifi-
cial flowers. Aggie removed the vase
and carried the table to Jacks door.
He stood up on 1t ginserly; his face
came level with the painted tran
som. He moved his head until he
found a crack in the paint and
pressed his eye close.
The partial view Of Jacks room
was adequate. 1t was in feverish
disorder. Two bullying suitcases
stood on the windowsill and an
other, nearly full, was on the bed,
A revolver lay on the bureau.
The professor restored the table
TO its place and knocked on Jacks
door. 1t sprang open. Browne stood
there in shirt, tie, and gray Stacks,
with q fedora cooked on the back OF
his mead. When he saw that it was
Aggie, his face relaxed. He even
smiled. Something | can do"
Aggie stepped toward him. Take
your hat off, Jack. You're not going
anywhere.
Browne backed into his room,

rand" His voice rose. Don't come
in here!" His muscles twitched as
he yielded ground-twitched with
the restrained will to grapple with
Aggie. Professor Plum kept coming
in, and Jack kept backing until he
bumped against his bedstead. Then
he tried to turn.
Aggie. one hand in the pocket Of
his jacket, said, 81 wouldn't go fol

back some magazines on a desk and

Jack said, "Why are you coming
in here-like this? Suppose l an

any more! l hate the people! The
orders! And this summer has beer
too much-alreadyl My nerves are

at him. He was now a little closer

Jack seemed to make some sense

Aggie sat. still on the decisive

lot to do with it. Two good-sized
ones-chopped down to make that
