“Mr. Smithers, Sen., London.”
{Illustration: “LANGHETTI IS ALIVE."}
Louis read this letter over several times and fell into deep thought.
Frank went on reading his letters, looking up from time to time. At last he put down the last one.
“Louis!” said he.
Louis looked up.
“You came so late last night that I haven’t had a chance to speak about any thing yet. I want to tell you something very important.”
“Well!”
“Langhetti is alive.”
“I know it.”
