"I do not."

Trembling in every limb Wilberforce Chaster came forward and peered into
the room.

"Well?" demanded the hotel proprietor, after a pause.

"I--I certainly saw them."

"Then where are they now?"

"I--I don't know."

By this time others were crowding into the apartment. All gazed around,
and into the clothes closet, but found nothing unusual.

"You must be the victim of some hallucination, sir," said the hotel
proprietor, severely.

He hated to have anything occur which might give his establishment a bad
reputation.

"No, sir, I saw the things with my own eyes."

The matter was talked over for several minutes longer and then the hired
help was ordered away.

"I shall not stay in this room," insisted Wilberforce Chaster.

"You need not remain in the hotel," answered Andrew Mallison, quickly.
