He
had
not
been
standing
on
the
corner
a
minute
before
Ratterer
appeared
,
very
genial
and
friendly
and
dressed
,
if
anything
,
more
neatly
than
ever
.
"
Gee
,
it
's
good
to
have
a
look
at
you
,
old
socks
!
"
he
began
.
"
Do
you
know
you
're
the
only
one
of
that
bunch
that
I
've
seen
since
I
left
K.
C.
?
That
's
right
.
My
sister
wrote
me
after
we
left
home
that
no
one
seemed
to
know
what
became
of
either
Higby
or
Heggie
,
or
you
,
either
.
They
sent
that
fellow
Sparser
up
for
a
year
--
did
you
hear
that
?
Tough
,
eh
?
But
not
so
much
for
killing
the
little
girl
,
but
for
taking
the
car
and
running
it
without
a
license
and
not
stopping
when
signaled
.
That
's
what
they
got
him
for
.
But
say
,
"
--
he
lowered
his
voice
most
significantly
at
this
point
--
"
we
'd
a
got
that
if
they
'd
got
us
.
Oh
,
gee
,
I
was
scared
.
And
run
?
"
And
once
more
he
began
to
laugh
,
but
rather
hysterically
at
that
.
"
What
a
wallop
,
eh
?
An
'
us
leavin
'
him
and
that
girl
in
the
car
.
Oh
,
say
.
Tough
,
what
?
Just
what
else
could
a
fellow
do
,
though
?
No
need
of
all
of
us
going
up
,
eh
?
What
was
her
name
?
Laura
Sipe
.
An
'
you
cut
out
before
I
saw
you
,
even
.
And
that
little
Briggs
girl
of
yours
did
,
too
.
Did
you
go
home
with
her
?
"
Clyde
shook
his
head
negatively
.

"
I
should
say
I
did
n't
,
"
he
exclaimed
.
"
Well
,
where
did
you
go
then
?
"
he
asked
.
Clyde
told
him
.
And
after
he
had
set
forth
a
full
picture
of
his
own
wayfarings
,
Ratterer
returned
with
:
"
Gee
,
you
did
n't
know
that
that
little
Briggs
girl
left
with
a
guy
from
out
there
for
New
York
right
after
that
,
did
you
?
Some
fellow
who
worked
in
a
cigar
store
,
so
Louise
told
me
.
She
saw
her
afterwards
just
before
she
left
with
a
new
fur
coat
and
all
.
"
(
Clyde
winced
sadly
.
)
"
Gee
,
but
you
were
a
sucker
to
fool
around
with
her
.
She
did
n't
care
for
you
or
nobody
.
But
you
was
pretty
much
gone
on
her
,
I
guess
,
eh
?
"
And
he
grinned
at
Clyde
amusedly
,
and
chucked
him
under
the
arm
,
in
his
old
teasing
way
.

But
in
regard
to
himself
,
he
proceeded
to
unfold
a
tale
of
only
modest
adventure
,
which
was
very
different
from
the
one
Clyde
had
narrated
,
a
tale
which
had
less
of
nerves
and
worry
and
more
of
a
sturdy
courage
and
faith
in
his
own
luck
and
possibilities
.
And
finally
he
had
"
caught
on
"
to
this
,
because
,
as
he
phrased
it
,
"
you
can
always
get
something
in
Chi
.
"
And
here
he
had
been
ever
since
--
"
very
quiet
,
of
course
,
"
but
no
one
had
ever
said
a
word
to
him
.
And
forthwith
,
he
began
to
explain
that
just
at
present
there
was
n't
anything
in
the
Union
League
,
but
that
he
would
talk
to
Mr.
Haley
who
was
superintendent
of
the
club
--
and
that
if
Clyde
wanted
to
,
and
Mr.
Haley
knew
of
anything
,
he
would
try
and
find
out
if
there
was
an
opening
anywhere
,
or
likely
to
be
,
and
if
so
,
Clyde
could
slip
into
it
.
