“Did you gather who he meant?”

“Yes. They were talking about Allen. There wasn’t much reserve on either side and I was damned uncomfortable. Anita called her father a brute and he called her a fool and she flung out in a rage.”

“What did Harrison say about Allen?” asked Bernard.

Graham flinched a little.

“Good Lord, I don’t want to go into that, Mr. Bernard!”

“We’re not going to talk about it,” Landis smiled. “But we ought to know, I think.”

“He acted as if he thought Allen was a—well, a fortune hunter. Millionaires are apt to get that way,” answered Graham after a moment.

“Anita was defending Allen, of course. Did you gather that she is in love with him, Graham?”

“I really couldn’t say.” Graham’s voice had an edge.
