Goddard promptly joined in the singing with others in the crowd which had collected. Suddenly a heavy hand fell on his shoulder, and facing about he found Lloyd standing behind him.
"Come out of this crowd," said the latter, sternly. In silence the two men walked up the Avenue to Third Street, and Lloyd led his companion into that quieter thoroughfare. Looking to see that no one was near enough to hear what he said, he turned savagely on Goddard.
"I should arrest you at once."
Goddard stared blankly at Lloyd, unable to believe his ears.
"On what charge?" he demanded, hotly.
"Aiding and abetting the enemy."
Goddard's face cleared. "You are crazy," he remarked, tersely.
"Am I? We shall see. I warned you Nancy Newton was a spy."
Goddard's eyes snapped angrily, and his color rose.
"Suppose we leave Miss Newton's name out of the discussion," he said, haughtily; then, in a more friendly tone: "Here I am, happy and carefree, and you appear, like 'Banquo's ghost,' and shout your silly theories, which you admit you can't prove, into my ears."
