"H-m! Suppose I learn that for myself! I'll start at the beginning. Your name is William Barker?"
"Yes. I told you that once."
"Where is your home? What city have you lived in mostly?"

"What cities around there?"
"Newark."
"Newark, New Jersey?"
"Yes. An' in Jersey City some, and Paterson, and a little while in
Brooklyn."
