“I live there—in Wisconsin. Did you ever hear of Wisconsin?”
Julius shook his head.
“I don’t know much about any places, except New York and Jersey,” he added.
“I live in the city of Milwaukee, in Wisconsin. It is quite a flourishing city.”
“Is it as big as New York?”
“Oh, no; we can’t show any cities in the West as big as New York. I doubt if we ever shall, though we’ve some large cities, that are growing fast. Do you think you are likely to come to Milwaukee?”
“I don’t know,” said Julius. “Mr. O’Connor could tell you.”
“Where is he?”
“In the other car. Will I speak to him?”
“Not yet. I’ve got something more to say to you. I am under an obligation to you.”
