"Hello, Fellows," said Lamont Cranston as the chubby-faced insurance man appeared. "What brings you here?"
"Richards called me at the office. I was there before eight o'clock to-day. He said you were missing."
"I appear to have been in the wireless room upstairs."
"I thought Burbank was attending to that."
"He went away yesterday."
"Mr. Cranston's interest in Burbank's work appeared to be taxing his strength," explained Doctor Wells.
"When I mentioned that fact, we agreed that Burbank should go."
"I can't keep my mind off the sending station," said Cranston. "Perhaps you had better let me go up there today."
"No, no," exclaimed the physician.
"Then we'll have to send for Burbank."
