"Haven't you been talking to that other messenger?"
"Which one?"
"The fellow you met."
"I haven't spoken to anybody except the red-haired man, and he didn't give me a chance to do much talking."
"What is your fee?"
"Twenty-five cents."
"Here's half a dollar. If anybody asks where you have been say that it was to the Stock Exchange. I don't care to have a lot of people talking about my business, and a quarter should be enough to make you hold your tongue."
"Will you sign this slip, sir? the manager wants the distance and time on there."
"Do it yourself, and put it down as I tell you."
