"Mr. Herrick?"
"Yes, Joe."
"I got to get right back in time for the theayter. But I'd like to speak to you a minute."
"Walk back toward the Square with me."
"It's something I been worried about telling for days an' now I'm goin' to. I mean—Mr. Herrick, I wouldn't tell it to anybody but a friend o' hers! But I make out that it's right to tell it to you.—You remember that night out to Riley's?"
"Yes."
"An' the shadder the chaufers seen?"
"Yes?"
"I was there. My cousin Sweeney sent for me, an' my uncle an' me come out together. As we come into the yard—that toon—you know! There was the shadder—I seen it, too! And another man seen it an' skipped up the steps an' went inside. Me after him! An' before he'd got in, hardly, out he bounced with a lady. That lady wasn't no Mrs. Riley, Mr. Herrick. It was—her!"
"You've seen the moving-picture?"
