“That was clever!”
The girl trembled slightly.
“Who’s the third man,” Fay asked, “the one you looked at before you came over to me?”
“Oh, that’s Ponsardin! He’s the owner of the Gray Taxi Company. I wonder what will become of it now? I hate to see the boys lose their jobs.”
“They won’t, and you won’t. I’m sure I can fix things so that once in a while I can drop around and call upon Miss Elsie De Groot—President and General Manager of the Gray Taxi Company—which Mr. George Mott will surely take care of, no matter what happens to Ponsardin.”
The girl seized Fay’s extended hand.
“That’ll be corking! The Gray Brotherhood has certainly cleared its name tonight.”
“And so have you!” said Chester Fay with a smile.
