After the delay of ten minutes which the importance of the Major Fitz Bicsing on necessitated. they want upstairs to a large shah-by room over the shop. in which there were lelter files and card indlces.

In the centre was a. large writing desk of painted and grained w , littered with ‘ipapers and with the a parai-us an litter oi a. sloveniy pp.» sneaker. and at this desk sac a small but sturdy little man with a hooked. red nose and a tumul. of chins in full retreat. dissimilar blue e es. a moustache as wild as an ex- c ted Persian kitten and s gipc in the corner of his mouth. _e was dressed in a. shabby old khaki uni- form from which all badges and indication of rank had been remov- ed and diagonally across his chest was p. black and red scar! after the fashion of a French mayor's.

"I see that." said Ciiltfuii. "There were five or six hanging about out- Sltie when we came in.”
