Chapter V—A New Lodger in Leytonstone
On the next day, as Gray left the office for Liverpool Street Station en route for Leytonstone, he ran into a man carrying a black bag.
"Hang you!" said the man. "Look where you're going."
"Your fault," retorted Gray, "stupid!"
"Who's that?" The man stopped. "Is that Jimmy Gray?"
"Why, it's Lambert," said Gray. "How are you, old man?"
They shook hands cordially, and slapped each other in the familiar old pal style.
"Why, what are you doing down this way?" said Gray.
