A MISSING DOCUMENT OF VALUE
As soon as Nat returned to the office he sought out Mr. Garwell, and handed him the document in the envelope.
"Did you have any trouble getting Mrs. Parloe's signature?" asked the real estate broker.
"I had no trouble getting the signature, but I had trouble getting away from the house," answered Nat.
"Trouble getting away? What do you mean?"
"I was stopped by her nephew, a man named Rufus Cameron. He handled me rather roughly."
"Did he try to get the document away from you?" And now John Garwell was all attention.
