"I never had any cause to suspect him."
"I hope it is all right."
"If it isn't, I will discharge him," said Cooper, nodding emphatically.
"He probably didn't think I would be here so soon. I didn't expect to be, but a telegram summoned me to the city on other business."
Of course Luke understood that the conversation related to Kean, and that he had arrived none too soon. He came forward.
"I have a letter for you from Mr. Kean," he said.
"Ha! Give it to me!"
Mr. Cooper tore open the envelope, saw the bank bills, and read the letter.
"It's all right, Mr. Crossley," he said, his brow clearing. "Read that letter."
"I am really glad," said Crossley.
