Both Señor Guillermo Gonzales and Helen Hinckley saw the humorous side of the occurrence and they joined the Governor in his laugh.
“The audacious señorita,” continued the Governor, “is irresponsible for her actions.”
Miss Hinckley and Señor Guillermo Gonzales exclaimed in a breath: “Señorita?”
“Certainly; Marriet Motuble. I do not believe it is possible for her to effect a disguise I could not penetrate.”
“Governor,” said Miss Hinckley, “you have confirmed my suspicions.”
“And mine,” added Guillermo Gonzales.
“The young fellow with her I cannot quite make out,” continued the Governor, with a puzzled look in his face.
“The fellow,” said Helen Hinckley, “is, I believe, ‘The Plunger from Kansas.’”
“Can it be possible?” exclaimed both the Governor and Guillermo Gonzales.
“Then we must not let him get away until we have his full confession in writing, and a check for the full amount of his obligations,” said the Governor.
