It was the one whom he had suspected as shadowing Snell from Nick Carter’s house.
CHAPTER III.
A GAME OF WATCHING.
Patsy thought that this was the same man who had come so near killing Snell.
He had not been sure of that at the time, for he had not been able to see the would-be murderer’s face.
Now it took only a sharp glance to satisfy him, for the man’s motions were a little peculiar.
He had a way of bending his head to one side which Patsy had noticed in the man who had shadowed Snell.
As he remembered it the same sideways hang of the head had been the case with the would-be murderer in that instant when he saw him darting after his victim.
“So,” thought Patsy, “he’s at his game again. Been watching Snell, probably, ever since the attack. There’ll be trouble if he finds his man on board.”
