“I can do it all right, I think.�
“But, Chick, if she should balk at all, and decline to come, show your warrant, and bring her.�
“I’ll do that, too.�
“While you are after the warrant from the judge, send Patsy after that old butler, Tompkins, and instruct Tompkins to wait for you somewhere along the route you will take after Mrs. Babbington has entered the car with you. If he were out, say at the end of the subway line, waiting for you, that would be the best arrangement.�
“Why?�
“Because the minute she sees him she’ll get a scare, and I want you to have her out of the city, well on the way here, before that happens.�
“I see.�
“Wait a minute, Chick; I’ve got a better idea.�
“Well?�
“Send Ida Jones after Tompkins, or let her go there with Patsy after him; and then let her accompany him to the end of the subway to wait for the car. I don’t want any mistake to happen about getting that old servant here.�
