"That is the mayor's chair," he said.
"He must be an unusually large man," said Gerald, "if he requires so large a chair."
When they reached Brooklyn they walked a short distance on Fulton Street, and then Brand proposed to return.
"Brooklyn is a large city," he said, "and we can't undertake to see it in a few minutes. We will take the cars back, and then go to my house up-town."
"Very well, Mr. Brand," replied Gerald.
They boarded a return car, Brand paying the fare again.
"I don't want you to pay for me, Mr. Brand," said Gerald.
"Oh, that's all right," said Brand, carelessly. "You may pay on the Sixth Avenue cars on the other side."
"You are certainly very kind to me."
"Don't mention it. You don't seem like a stranger; you seem so much like Bill Mortimer."
