"Thank you, that will do for the present. Keep your eyes open
and your mouth closed, and when you hear of anything likely to
interest me, call at the address I gave you."

"Yes, sir," said Susan, and took her leave, not without
another lingering glance at the door behind which Mallow
waited impatiently.

When she was gone, Jennings went into the next room to find
Cuthbert smoking. He jumped up when he saw the detective.
"Well, has that silly girl gone?" he asked angrily.

"Yes, poor soul. You needn't get in a wax, Mallow. The girl
can't help falling in love with you. Poor people have
feelings as well as rich."

"I know that, but it's ridiculous: especially as I never saw
the girl before, and then I love only Juliet."

"You are sure of that?"

"Jennings"

"There--there, don't get angry. We must get to the bottom
of this affair which is getting more complicated every day.
Did you give that photograph to Senora Gredos?"

"To Maraquito. No, I didn't. I gave it to Juliet."
