"Have you ever had a bill changed there?"
"I don't know what you mean, pa."
But Loammi began to fear that he did understand, and he turned pale.
"Where," asked his father, sternly, "did you get the five-dollar bill that you got changed there a week ago to-day?"
"I don't know anything about any five-dollar bill."
Loammi looked frightened.
"Wasn't it the money you found in your mother's pocketbook?"
"But Scott took that, pa. You know the pocketbook was found in his room."
"Yes, by you. You knew just where to look for it, for you concealed it there."
