“Well, what are you doing bothering this gent and lady?” growled one of the waiters, who looked like a bouncer.
Frank did not look at him.
“Will you come with me, miss?” he asked.
“Well, that beats!” gasped the bouncer. “He’s tryin’ ter take the gent’s lady frien’ away from him.”
“T’row him out!” suggested the other.
“All right!”
Now Frank paid some attention to the men.
“Don’t attempt to put your hands on me!” he said, grimly. “If you do, I shall knock you down!”
“Ho! ho!” laughed the bouncer. “Out yer goes, freshy!”
He endeavored to catch hold of Merry to run him for the door, and the other offered assistance.
