“Well, that’s the man who followed me from the chophouse.”
“You know who it is, of course?”
“No,” said Chick, with a laugh, “my acquaintance with crooks is not so extensive as is that of my chief.”
“Well, it’s Nixon, the all-around crook from New York,” replied the detective. “I wonder what he’s up to now?”
