“Look here! Do you think he suspects you?”
“I am quite sure not. That is why I told him about the robbery.”
“He might suspect me.”
“He said nothing about suspecting anybody.”
“Do you think he removed the bonds and substituted paper?”
“I don’t think so.”
“If this were the case we should both be in a serious plight. I think I had better get out of town. You will have to lend me ten dollars.”
“I don’t see how I can, Stark.”
“You must!” said Stark, sternly, “or I will reveal the whole thing. Remember, the box is on your premises.”
