"Twelve o'clock."
"You can send Andrew at that time."
"Very well, sir."
Andy was very glad of his employer's presence. It checked any manifestation of rudeness on the part of the clerk.
At quarter to twelve a box containing the chain was handed to Andy, addressed to Mrs. Mason.
"Did you notice the lady who purchased the chain?" asked Mr. Flint.
"Yes, sir."
"I wish this box placed in her hands. Ask her to give you a receipt for it."
"Yes, sir."
"Here is money for car fare. You may go to lunch after delivering the box."
