I'd remove it from so conspicuous a position if I were you, Uncle Jen; someone might come to grief over it." "And the room was in darkness--that is, comparative darkness--before then," mused Maurice.

Still marveling, Jen went after him, and on entering the library found that only Arkel was present. "They have shaken mine," retorted Jen, grimly. "But we need not discuss these things, Mrs. Dallas. May I ask why you have paid me this visit?".
