"You are sure his money is there too?" Wallace asked.
"Quite."
"That's curious."
"Why? It was obviously stolen by the same man who robbed the bank, and naturally they took it to the same spot."
"Have you any idea who the men were—or rather the man, for I suppose there is only one now to be considered?"
"That is so," Durham answered. "Only one—and he may be—anybody."
"You have no suspicions?"
"I don't want any. If I begin suspecting different persons I may miss the real individual. As matters stand, I know where, sooner or later, I shall meet him under conditions which will identify him as the man I want. The trap is set and the bird will be caught. That is all I can say."
"Have you heard what they are saying in the town?"
"I've heard a good deal one way and another, but not to-day, as I have been away since dawn. Is it anything special?"
