The handwriting gave him a clue.

"Sir Ian Taverner asked. you to call on me?"

The imperturable Corlitt crossed this legs and folded his hands in _front of him. Apparently it was his habit not to answer questions.

“Are you married, Mr. Dightcn?"

“N03.

“Engaged to be married?"

Again the same answer.

"You have no inkling of the busi- ncss that has brought me here?"

"None whatever."

"Are You Game of Risks?"

A short pause. “Are you still game for adventure, Mr. Digh~ , on?" / i The man who had tailed in busi- 1 ncss met his visitor's gaze steadily. “I-er- I think so." Corlitt drew in a deep breath.

, "I want you to understand me. xThe brand of adventure I am sug- igesting is vastly different from any- thing to which you have been ac- wustomed.

"They go better than choco- lates these days!"

Hazardous Adventure!

He chuckled audibly. The sheer excitement of the thing was going to his head like strong wine.

He could have embraced that lit- tle man, who smoked so placidly,

Corlitt smiled.

“Shall we call it a wise prgcgu- Mien?”

"Call it what you like. When will you want me to start?"

The other started as if roused from a reverie. Oh, immediately. Sir Ian suggested you should dine with‘ him at Donald's tonight at 7. in the hall for Mr. Gallagher." 1

Dighton helped him on with his 'coat. At the door they shook hands.
