"My dear boy," rejoined the young lawyer, "this is my vacation, and I only took up your case to keep my hand in."
"You are very kind, and I shall always remember it."
"Lawyers are not always mercenary, though they have that reputation with some. I should like, by the way, to find out who did steal the bill."
"So should I. I have no idea for my part."
"If you ever find out, let me know. I go back to New York to-morrow, and am glad to leave the memory of a professional triumph behind me."
"What is your address, Mr. Conway?"
"No. 111 Nassau Street, Room 15. Here is my card. When you come to New York, call and see me."
"I shall do so, though it may be some time in the future. Do you think I could get anything to do in New York?"
"Yes; but perhaps not enough to pay your expenses."
"I find the same trouble here."
