"He must have given me the slip," he exclaimed.
"Did any one see the boy go out with his gripsack?" he asked, as he returned.
"I saw him go out, but he had nothing in his hand," answered the landlord.
"Well, he's gone, bag and baggage," returned Robinson, very much annoyed.
"At any rate, he has paid his bill," said the landlord, complacently.
"Bother his hotel bill!" muttered Robinson, roughly. "I meant to have a good deal more than that."
"Have you any idea where he has gone?"
"I think he may have gone to the Sherman House. I'll go there after supper and see if I can find him."
