THE CALL OF DEATH;
Or, NICK CARTER’S CLEVER ASSISTANT.
Edited by CHICKERING CARTER.
CHAPTER I.
A CURIOUS LETTER.
“There’s no question in my mind, inspector, as to who did the job,” said Nick Carter.
“You feel sure of it, then?”
“As sure as water runs downhill. I refer, of course, to the mechanical part of the work. I looked it over on the morning following the burglary, every part of the looted vault, and I am as sure of the cracksman’s identity as if I had seen him getting in his work. Only one yegg in the business has the mechanical genius to crack a vault as that was cracked.”
