CHAPTER XIII.
MARK STARTS ON A JOURNEY.
"Shall you want me to-morrow, Mr. Swan?" asked Mark, as the clock struck six, and the jeweler prepared to close up.
"Yes; I shall probably want you for a week."
"Very well, sir; I will so report at the office."
The next morning about eight o'clock Mark reported for duty and waited for orders.
The jeweler looked up from a letter he had been reading.
"How would you like to make a journey?" he asked.
"Very much, sir."
