"Lord, man! How can you find that?"
"Do you know any nearby town where there's an insurance agent named Clement Foster?"
"Sure I do; he lives over in Meadville."
"Then Meadville is very likely the place where that house is."
"How do you know?"
"I don't know. But I asked Miss Clyde to think of anything in the room she was in that might be indicative, and she told of a calendar with that agent's name on it. It's only a chance, but it is likely that the calendar was in the same town that the agent lives and works in."
"Of course it is! Very likely! You are a smart chap, ain't you!"
Mr. Hughes' admiration was so full and frank that Stone smiled.
"That isn't a very difficult deduction," he said, "but we must verify it. This afternoon, we'll drive over there with Miss Clyde, and see if we can track down the house we're after."
