"Then I will introduce you; he is over there looking at Bandmaster," said Eve, and they walked in that direction.
"Here comes Eve with her escort," said Alan, laughing.
"The Baron evidently enjoys her society," said Ella. Then as Eve joined them she said:
"Has Baron Childs given you another tip?"
"Yes, White Legs; I shall back him," answered Eve, and then introduced
Mr. Hallam, who at once monopolized the Baron's attention.
"So you are going to back the Baron's tip again?" said Alan.
"Yes. Why not?"
"Because I think my horse will win," said Alan.
"Very well then; I will stick to White Legs," said Eve.
"Quite right, follow the Baron; it was a favorite cry years ago," was
Alan's reply.
