“Are you sure you are right?”
“Did you ever know me to make a mistake?”
“No.”
“This is not an exception.”
“Did you recognize Carter?”
“Yes; by the other one.”
“What do you mean?”
“I knew Chick once, and I had not forgotten his face. When he removed his disguise, I recognized him instantly.”
“And—”
“Why, simply if he is Chick, Nick Carter's assistant, the other one must be Nick Carter himself. I have a faculty for never forgetting faces; I knew the young cub the moment I saw him without a disguise.”
