“I must know that girl,” continued the earl, with a cunning look in his eye.
“I expect you will some day.”
“What’s her name?”
“I don’t know. She didn’t tell me.”
“Didn’t she sign anything when you paid her?”
“I haven’t paid her yet.”
“But you’re going to?”
“I—I suppose so,” answered Middleton.
“Well, you’ll find out who she is then. And, I say, Middleton, just let me know.”
“I will if I can—unless you’ve found it out before.”
