CHAPTER VI

A PRACTICAL OBJECT LESSON


The chums were joined outside the hotel by Herb and Jimmy, who had
waited for them during their interview. To them they narrated what
they had learned of Miss Berwick's story. Their friends shared their
own indignation and were quite as keen as themselves to hear the end
of the story.

"What did you say the fellow's name was?" asked Herb, as the quartette
walked along Main Street.

"Cassey, she said it was--Dan Cassey," replied Bob. "Ever hear of
any one by that name?"

"It sounds rather familiar," replied Herb, knitting his brows as he
tried to remember.

"Wait!" he said suddenly. "I've almost got it--Cassey! Cassey! Does
the man stutter, do you know?"

"She didn't say anything about that," replied Joe. "Why do you ask
that question?"
