9 AND 11 YOUNG STREET No sooner had Billy gone, leaving Maddoc alone with Hinter, than the lawyer's manner underwent a lightning change.

"Gee whitticker!" exclaimed Billy. "I wish now I hadn't promised you I'd come in. All right, lead on. Let's get the funeral over with." "What you mean, believe you?" "Nothing but a slice or two of tongue was sent to her," said Mr Lawrence, "that requires a knife to cut it with. Go on! Tell me what followed." "Surely," she said, "they are not as ferocious as they are said to be?".
