"This is General Sheridan's grave." "The Civil War cavalryman." "Born Albany, New York, March 6th, 1831." "Died Nonquitt, Massachusetts, August 5th, 1888." "Is there anything there about Lieutenant Richard L. Perry?" "No, he's not listed." "Then, sister, why is he buried here?" "Well, no doubt he did some unusual service for his country." "They all did." "Or they wouldn't be buried in Arlington." "Now, Lieutenant Perry, don't behave like all those other young officers." "Tell me about Manila." "I'm afraid it's all been told." "The Spaniards had their navy we had Admiral Dewey," "I suppose you know the admiral is very, very fond of you." "Although he says you're an incorrigible young rascal." "Are you?" "Well, of course." "I had my training under the admiral." "Talking about me?" "Eavesdropper!" "Don't repeat it to my face." "Now you two run along and dance." "This young lady thinks I am more at home on a battleship than in a ballroom." "I do not." "I love to dance with you." "You should be with the diplomatic corps." "Now run along." "Yes, sir." "Remember, you're going to tell me more about Manila." "Perhaps the admiral tell you." "He was there too, you know." "Oh, yes, so you were." "What?" "I'm sorry, sir." "That was Teddy." "Yes." "Yes, Mrs. Collins, it was willy, willy!" "Well..." "Lieutenant Perry?" "Yes?" "Mr. Andrews would like to see you, sir." "Andrews?" "Yes, sir." "Follow me, please." "Will you excuse me, please." "Of course." "Marjorie!" "Dan!" "Lieutenant Perry?" "Yes, sir." "I'm Andrews, Mr. McKinley's secretary." "I know, sir." "Come in, please." "The president will see you now." "The president?" "I'm afraid you've made a mistake, sir." "I'm Richard L. Perry." "Yes, I know." "The president wants to talk to you." "Mr. President, Lieutenant Perry." "Good evening, Lieutenant." "Good evening, Mr. President." "Pull up that chair a little closer." "Thank you, sir." "How's the reception going?" "Very well, sir." "Everyone having a good time?" "I think so, I know I was." "I wish I could say the same for myself." "But that's the way it is with the White House parties." "They rush me in and rush me out again." "I give them and the vice-president has all the fun." "Yes, I bet Mr. Roosevelt hasn't missed a dance." "Lieutenant..." "I've just been going over your record." "You have, sir?" "I asked General Myers to send me reports on half a dozen of you young men who've more or less distinguished yourselves in the service of your country." "Yours is quite interesting." "In fact amazing." "Well I..." "I thought I had explained all those scrapes to Admiral Dewy." "So you have." "And I congratulate you." "I don't know when I run across a young man... so adept at worming his way out of his difficulties." "Well, thank you, sir." "Now, that brings me to why I sent for you." "Are you familiar with these?" "Why, yes, I've seen the newspapers, of course." "What alarms me is why our secret service is unable to find out who's behind these robberies." "I've had Bradley Wallace and his men working night and day." "Every move they've made seems to be anticipated." "The only thing they have found out is that all these robberies are committed in exactly the same manner." "The robbers enter the bank with pass keys." "Once in they seem to know not only all about the alarm systems but the safe combinations as well." "That fact leads to only one conclusion." "Yes, sir?" "Well, obviously these men are being furnished with vault combinations... and other vital information." "What is it you wish me to do, Mr. President?" "And through them, the name of the man, or men, furnishing them with information that makes it possible to circumvent the secret service." "I see." "As long as leaks occur no department of government is secure." "Our military and naval secrets, our relations with foreign governments, the most intimate details of the executive department are in jeopardy." "I understand, sir." "I've gone as far as I can using the regular channels of the law." "Now something else has to be done." "That's why I sent for you." "Will you arrange for my leave of absence?" "You have to get out of the navy without anyone knowing why." "Not even our friend Admiral Dewey." "In fact, no one must know about this except you and me." "You'll have to..." "You'd have to change your identity." "Drop out of sight completely." "Even your intimate friends mustn't know where you are... or what you're doing." "Very well, sir." "It may take you months." "Or you may fail entirely." "In any event this is our game." "Yours and mine." "I don't want you even to communicate with me... unless you have some vital information or... or your life is in danger." "You must act on your own, independent of all else." "Now, when it is necessary for you to reach me put this mark on your envelope." "and I'll instruct Mr. Andrews to deliver it to me unopened wherever I am." "Yes, sir." "Until I receive an envelope from you with this mark on it you and I have never met." "This meeting never occurred." "You simply attended the ball at the White House and I was alone in my study." "I understand, sir." "I'll do my best." "I'm sure you will." "Good night, Mr. President." "Good night, Lieutenant." "You wanna play?" "Yeah, I don't mind if I do, if you don't make it too steep." "What about two bits?" "Shake with me." "I gotta carry it for protection." "Yeah, with all this bank robbery going on I don't blame you." "You from around here?" "No." "You?" "No." "I'm leaving town tomorrow." "Heading north, I suppose." "Haven't made up my mind." "Why?" "The bulls are getting pretty tough around KC I figured Minnesota would be about your speed." "Strike!" "You said it." "Why are you so curious about the fellows I go with?" "Maybe I'm jealous." "Well, you needn't be." "They've all gone back east for their help." "I'm figuring on pulling out too." "Soon as I get the fare." "Which way, baby?" "St. Paul." "That dump?" "Dump, nothing." "Say, there's a real town for you." "Wide open and plenty of protection." "Live and let live, that's their motto." "As long as you mind your own business." "Put down your glass, pick up your girl and dance, sway a bit." "Right then and there tell her you care and dance, play a bit." "luck with your charm she'll fit in your arms like a hand in a glove" "Though you're dancing in clover here's what to do when it's over." "Put down your girl, pick up your glass and sing to love." "I have a little message for every belle and beau" "I dressed it up in music and in rhyme." "Here's my little message to every belle and beau" "It is just about the proper time to..." "Put down your glass, pick up your girl and dance, sway a bit." "Right then and there tell her you care and dance, play a bit." "luck with your charm she'll fit in your arms like a hand in a glove." "Though you're dancing in clover here's what to do when it's over." "Put down your girl, pick up your glass and drink to love." "Put down your girl, pick up your glass and drink, drink, drink to love." "Hello, Jock!" "You got a full place, Jock." "I liked the show, Jock." "Hey, fix these suckers up with a star table, will ya?" "Lotte, this is Jock Ramsay." "How do you do?" "Well, I'm glad to meet you." "I have a table for you." "How are ya, Jock, ole boy?" "Well, well, well," "Tickled to death to see me, huh?" "Tickled to death, eh, kid?" "Very funny." "Tony, show these men to a front seat, will ya?" "This way, please." "See you around, Jock." "Hiya, Bat." "Great place here." "Glad you like it." "Shake hands with Joe Patrick." "Joe." "Bat Duryea, the fellow I was telling you about owns the place." "Pleased to meet you, Mr. Patrick." "Thanks, same here." "See you all later." "We'll be around." "Hey, Ed." "Come on over." "Glad to see you." "How are you, Ernie?" "How are they treating you there, fellow?" "Ask Ed." "He's got those cards trained." "Just a little luck, my boy, just a little luck." "Frank." "Looks like Ed's got himself a new sucker." "Yeah, and what a sucker." "For the last week they've been playing poker." "With Ed's cards." "Wouldn't believe it looking at this place that you fellows that own her were running a two-bit crap game in the back of a Santa Barbara shop less than three months ago." "If they were running a two-bit crap game how did they get all this?" "What's the difference, they got it." "All I mean is you oughta get us a bit in it to make us some dough ourselves." "You said it." "Ah, Lil!" "I hum a waltz hmm-hmm... when you come to me on a night like this." "I hum a waltz hmm-hmm... whenever I thrill to... your kiss." "The music plays, you're in my arms and as we dance... we find that we're dancing... to paradise." "If only you will hum a tune hmm-hmmm." "then I'll know the answer divine for it tells me... that you will be... mine." "When you are near... there's a serenade in the sigh of the breeze." "and the stars seem to dance in the skies." "When you are near there's a symphony in the ripple of a stream." "Life is a dream, heavenly dream." "When I look into your eyes" "Your eyes..." "I hum a waltz hmm-hmm... when you come to me on a night like this" "I hum a waltz hmm-hmm... whenever I thrill to... your kiss." "The music plays, you're in my arms and as we dance... we find that we're dancing... to paradise." "If only you will hum a tune hmm-hmmm." "then I'll know the answer divine, so divine... it tells me that you will be... mine." "Hello, boys." "Going in for society?" "Hello, Lil." "Oh, you kid." "Gee, Lil, you're looking swell." "Welcome to the Capital, boys." "Remember the name, Capital." "Waiter, some champagne for these gentlemen." "Or did you boys just come to look at the girls?" "Anything you say, Lil." "Great place you got here." "Thanks." "You've got to give St. Paul some excuse for living." "It's a lollapalooza." "Greatest flash west of little old Chi." "True, including the stockyard." "I..." "I don't believe I've had the pleasure." "Oh, Lil, a friend of mine, Joe Patrick." "Lil Duryea." "Glad to meet you, Miss Duryea." "If Ed says you're friends, you're alright with me." "Just let me know if they don't treat you right, Mr. Patrick." "Pardon me, but there are some people over there I'd like to shake hands with if I can borrow my hand for a while." "Certainly, if I can have it back as soon as they're through with it." "I'll remember that." "Better get your mind off that, Patrick." "Hm?" "Sit down while you're still healthy." "I don't get it." "Didn't you see those rocks all over her?" "That's a sign she's been reserved." "Oh, don't be foolish." "She was giving me the key to the city." "Careful Jock don't give you the key to the cemetery." "Jock?" "What's he got to do with this?" "He's the fellow that owns all the keys." "Hers and the one to the cemetery." "Just the same I think I'll give the lady a chance to say no for herself." "For you." "Thanks, Lil." "Say, I forgot to tell you boys." "Everything's wide open on the other side of those doors." "Why not make expenses?" "Tarot, baccarat, craps, roulette, twenty-one." "I'll bet you're a wizard at seven up." "Right over there." "Hand these to the doorman and tell him Lil sent you." "Why don't you take a chance?" "I think I will." "Let me know how you come out." "Pardon me." "There's Doc Keller." "Let's gamble." "Yes, let's play roulette." "Well, hello, Lil !" "Look at ole Doc." "He sure can pick 'em young." "Is he a doctor of horses?" "Horses?" "Why I guess Doc Keller can cure anything that ails you the way he runs this town." "Oh, I get it." "The boss, eh?" "You said it." "What he says goes." "Yeah, he's like this with the high and the low." "All he does is say to the boys, mind your P's and Q's and nobody'll bother you." "To them higher up it's leave the boys alone, they leave you alone." "Well, that seems fair enough." "Sure is." "Never heard of Saint Paul being took, have you?" "Well, I think I'm gonna take a swing at that roulette game and then turn in unless you fellows want to stake me." "Sorry, I got a place for an old man." "That's alright." "See you again, I hope." "Sure, I'll look you up." "Good night." "Good night." "Well, we warned him." "I ain't even talking about her." "Not in here." "Give me a number quick, from 1 to 36." "23." "23 it is." "All done." "Single O. Green." "Maybe this isn't your lucky day." "Maybe you're wrong." "Could I interest you in some champagne?" "Only in a sale." "We can sit somewhere and watch it bubble, and talk." "What about?" "You and me." "Or the weather." "As far as you and I are concerned, that's taboo." "As for the weather, my opinion is quite simple." "Hot in the summer, cold in the winter." "Ain't it cute?" "Look at that, Mac, look at it, look at it." "Don't twitch your eyes, open them." "Ain't they cute?" "I don't see nothing." "You don't know, you're crazy..." "Now you'll see something." "No, I still don't see nothing." "Well, we do." "And for free." "Keep away from me from now on." "How are you, honey?" "Having a good time?" "I was, till you started cracking my ribs." "The same ol' Lil, eh?" "Always got a comeback." "Say, I got a new one for you." "Don't tell me I've got to go through that ace of spades trick again." "No, no, this is a new one." "Mr. Duryea." "Come on in the office." "Wait for me, babe." "Say, I thought you were gonna help me pick a few winners." "Oh, hello..." "Uhmm..." "Mr. Patrick, I'd like you to meet Jock Ramsay." "Mr. Patrick is a friend of mine from Des Moines." "How are you?" "I ain't complaining." "Well, what do you say we shoot the works, huh?" "Hey, I wanna talk to you." "Yes, excuse us, please." "Sure, I'll wait right here." "Be careful, son." "It looks like rain." "That's very funny." "He's big for his age, isn't he?" "I bet it's a tough job keeping him in tin soldiers and blocks." "Come on." "Who's that monkey?" "Just a casual acquaintance." "Well, see that he keeps casual." "Making expenses, Doc?" "Why, these young ladies have already lost my wife's next month alimony." "How did you know I was from Des Moines?" "Because I am and because that was the first thing that popped into my mind." "Why did you have to tell him anything?" "Because this happens to be our opening night and I'd hate it to see it end with one of the guests being taken out on a stretcher." "Please do me a favor." "Vamoose, skidoo, and don't come back again." "Maybe I'll see you here again tomorrow night." "I doubt it." "Something tells me the doorman isn't going to remember you the next time." "Now wait a minute." "Get this straight." "Whether you like it or not, I'm going to see a lot more of you." "If you aren't careful, Mr. Patrick," "I'm afraid you won't be seeing much more of anything or anybody." "Now good night." "Be yourself." "Frank, show this gentleman out." "Certainly." "I'll see you again." "Good night." "Hey, come on." "I was just kidding about that trick." "Let's see it." "What?" "You know, the new one you had for me." "Oh, yes, sure." "Look, take a card." "Anyone." "Now look at it." "Don't let me see it." "Put it anywhere you like." "Alright, now I'll shuffle it." "Now hold them in your hand." "Now, do you want it on the top, the center or the bottom?" "Ish Kabibble." "There it is." "No." "Oh, it is." "No." "Is that it?" "I made a mistake." "I'll do it again." "Here's something nice." "For the self-supporting girl a material for a frock of this design would be a useful gift." "Pretty steep, though." "Fifteen dollars." "Can I see you tonight?" "No." "Tomorrow night?" "No." "There's a good show in town." "Joe Jefferson in Rip Van Winkle." "No!" "Well, how about a vaudeville show?" "Funny jokes and snappy songs." "Eddie Four and those songbirds from the south." "No!" "Now here's just the thing." "A waist easily clasped with two hands." "Now, hum..." "I'd hate to start a roughhouse over the Capital, but... if you don't meet me somewhere else I'm afraid I'll have to do it." "Don't be a fool." "Alright, then, will you meet me or shall I beat Jock in his own den?" "Well, I..." "I might Friday night for a little while... if you'll stop annoying me." "Now you're talking." "I knew you'd see it my way." "But only if Bat and Jock go out of town as they planned." "Alright, where will I meet you?" "We have to go someplace where we won't run into people we know." "I can arrange that." "What time?" "I'll telephone you." "What's your number?" "Same as yours." "Nice little hotel." "Now I know you're a fool." "Same boat, folks?" "Sure, good old Hilda." "I could have let her out a dozen times already but I said to myself maybe they'll want her again." "Thanks, Gus." "We'll do the same for you sometime." "Here you are, Gus." "A dollar for the deposit, the rest for yourself." "Oh, I'll tell my wife about you." "She always says when you're in love money don't mean nothing." "See, even Gus knows this." "Thank goodness Hilda's got a nice flat bottom." "Look for us when you see us, Gus." "From the fields there comes the breath of newmown hay." "Of newmown hay." "Through the sycamores the candle lights are gleaming," "On the banks of the Wabash far away..." "Joe, who are you really?" "I'm just a fellow by the name of Joe Patrick." "No, I mean where do you come from?" "What are you doing in St. Paul:" "Well, I hail from Des Moines." "Came to St. Paul after a girl named Lil." "A great girl too." "Don't you do anything for a living?" "No." "Got my hands full taking care of you." "You aren't in trouble, are you?" "Why do you ask that?" "I just wondered." "Would it make any difference if I was?" "Not as long as you aren't in danger." "Well uh..." "There was a little trouble in Cheyenne, but..." "Forget I told you." "I don't want to get you mixed up in it." "That sort of trouble doesn't worry me... but this does." "You, and me and Jock." "That's something we've got to get straightened out." "What does Jock mean to you?" "He doesn't mean a thing." "He never has." "Well, then why are you..." "Jock's wanted me ever since he and Bat have been together, I......" "I keeled him along at first because he was good protection." "He kept a lot of other fellows from getting the wrong idea." "Now he thinks he owns me." "How did you and Bat ever get mixed up with a big lump like that?" "They were together long before I joined." "You see, Bat isn't my real brother, he's my stepbrother, but... he's looked after me since our folks died." "Seems to me he's doing it alright." "It hasn't always been like this." "I've been hungry plenty of times." "What did Bat do, run into a gold mine?" "Well..." "Bat doesn't tell me everything." "Well, doesn't seem to me you have much to worry about right now." "Except what Jock would do if he knew we'd been seeing each other." "You're not sorry, are you?" "No." "You do like me, don't you?" "It isn't just because I'm a woman..." "any woman." "No, you know better than that." "It was at first, wasn't it?" "Well, maybe." "I don't mind." "In fact it's a very comforting thought." "When I'm here like this Bat and Jock don't mean a thing." "I almost wish they were staying in Omaha forever." "Who is it?" "It's me, Joe." "Come in!" "I got your note and came right over." "The boys must be out of town again." "They are." "For two whole days." "Say, some place you got here." "Where did they go this time?" "Oh, I don't know." "Some place or other, I forget where." "I thought maybe if you were free we might spend the day together." "Right." "What do you say we run over to Minneapolis and see the sights?" "Hm-hmm." "Too many people we know there." "Fort Snelling?" "No." "I don't like a man in uniform." "Well, we could always pop in on Hilda." "That's what I wanted you to say." "I'll never get ready if you don't stop forcing your attentions on me." "How long will it take you?" "Oh, about three shakes of a lamb's tail." "Just give me time to run out to my room and wash." "You can wash here." "It's the same soap and water." "It's a good idea." "You'll find comb and brush and anything else you need in my brother's room." "It's the other side of the bathroom." "Thanks." "What's the matter?" "What happened?" "An accident." "Get some hot water and a couple of towels, quick." "Get me a drink." "That's all I want." "I'll be alright." "I am alone, la-da-di-da..." "Jock!" "How did he get in here?" "I'll kick his face in!" "What is this, Lil?" "I told you he's a friend of mine from Des Moines." "We're going for a ride." "You're lying!" "Funny I never saw him around Des Moines." "You didn't know every fellow I went with." "You're lying, I tell you!" "I'm not!" "What's the idea of bringing him in here?" "He was jittery about some trouble he had in Cheyenne and wanted someone to talk to, that's all." "Hey, take a look at that." "Hey, what is this?" "You dirty rat!" "Wait a minute, take it easy." "Hey, where's this?" "It's the First State Bank of Cheyenne." "Don't you know better than to take small town bills like these?" "They're too easy to trace." "Maybe that's why I still got them." "Or have I still got them?" "Alright, Patrick, get going." "If you ask me..." "I didn't ask you." "I'm sorry, Joe." "It's alright." "Are you ready?" "She ain't going no place with you." "Some other time." "Oh, I see." "Well, you should have told me." "Yeah, and if you're smart you'll go back to Des Moines." "I'm doing alright here." "Yeah, but you'll be a lot healthier in Des Moines." "You don't look so healthy just now." "What's the matter?" "Had a little accident?" "Anybody home?" "Oh, hello, Ernie, Come on in." "Alright, Patrick, beat it." "Well, thanks, folks, for a very pleasant time." "I still think your boyfriend here oughta be in rompers." "Oh, how I hate that guy." "One of these days I'll take him and I'll bust him in two." "Hey, who is..." "Never mind, he's alright." "Hey, sis, get that hot water and those towels, will you?" "Take a look at that." "What happened?" "What happened, the dumb lug." "I've always told him he's the only one that thinks those jokes of his are funny." "Easy..." "We go into a saloon in Elm City just to kill some time... there's a monkey sitting there with a bald head" "Jock gives him the beevies." "Well, the bald head don't take it so funny." "He gives Jock a bullet in the arm." "Yeah, wait until I find him, that's all." "Yeah, I know, you'll show him one of your card tricks." "That kind of knocks things in the head, don't it?" "Unless I figure our another way." "Sit down." "What did you find out about Milwaukee?" "That town is harder than a firecracker." "The Milwaukee Savings has got a lot of money in it." "Yeah, and a cop for every dollar." "But Madison is jig." "There's a welcome sign all over it." "They're expecting a lot of money from Chicago to pay off Saturday on the livestock the farmers have been selling." "So you got to crack it by Friday night." "I can't get there." "Not with this arm." "You got the layout?" "Sure." "Perfect setup." "Here's the alarm switch." "The vault is single action without a time lock." "What about the bulls?" "I've got their schedule timed to a second." "Those Madison bulls need a lesson." "They drink too much." "Here." "Wax impression of the rear door key." "Those numbers... come from the east?" "No, not yet." "But they will." "They always do." "Good." "Where do I go next?" "Dodge City?" "No." "We're branching out." "I want you to get me the layout on Chicago." "Chicago?" "Well!" "Now maybe I'll get to see a little real baseball." "You feel alright?" "I sure do now, honey." "I won't be able to show you that new trick now." "Aw..." "Thank goodness we've got something to look forward to." "Huh?" "Yeah." "Yeah." "Ah, good evening, sir." "Something I can show you?" "Yeah, I'd like to see some watches fobs." "Yes, sir." "I have some pretty ones right here." "Here we are, sir." "Ah, yes..." "That's nice, how much is it?" "Nine dollars." "But it's real gold." "Alright, I'll take it, Thank you." "Would you like it in a box, sir?" "Yes, please." "Thank you." "Hey, those are nice." "Could I see them?" "Yes, sir." "Oh, I'll take care of that, Tony." "No..." "Put 'em up!" "No!" "Put 'em up!" "Now just be quiet and everything will be alright." "Stop!" "Stop him!" "I've been robbed." "I've been robbed!" "He robbed me!" "Bat, I want to talk to you right now." "Come on in the office." "What's up?" "Plenty." "How are you, Jock?" "Well, Doc?" "It ain't fair, Bat." "This town's been pretty good to you boys." "Lets you do just about as you please." "What's eating you?" "You're getting paid plenty for it, ain't you?" "That's got nothing to do with it." "The agreement was as long as you left this town alone the town would leave you alone." "Now if that ain't good enough for you and you want to get tough we can get tough too." "Give me a light somewhere." "What are you driving at?" "The Konheim job, that's what." "Konheim?" "Who's that?" "The Konheim jewelry store's been robbed." "O whole tray load of diamonds is gone." "What's it to us if some green hoodlum pulls a stickup?" "Sure, Doc." "It couldn't have been one of the regulars." "Maybe not." "But if you'd like to climb it here and keep this place open, you better find out who it was." "Them diamonds have gotta be back by morning." "Ah, you got bats in your belfry." "We don't do things like that." "Don't give me any of your arguments." "This is a clean town and we're gonna keep it that way." "Besides, you know that Konheim's the mayor's brother-in-law." "When did this happen, Doc?" "Tonight about 8 o'clock." "Any description of the fellow?" "Not much." "Just a ten dollar bill he left to pay for a watch fob." "From the First State Bank in Cheyenne." "Cheyenne?" "Hey, that's the..." "Shut up!" "Doc, suppose you come back in a couple of hours." "Maybe we can find out something by then." "You better." "I've always played fair with you." "I don't want any hard feelings." "But I got myself to think about." "Sure, I understand." "We've all got our reputations to think about." "You said it." "Well, Lil, looks like your friend has got over his jitters." "Why didn't you tell Doc who did it?" "Bat, you don't know it was Joe for sure." "Jock, suppose you run over to the hotel and tell Mr. Patrick I'd like to see him for a minute." "You can't push this on him..." "It's alright, honey." "Just a little friendly talk." "I'll be right back." "What are you going to do?" "What difference does that make to you?" "I'm crazy about him." "How long has this been going on?" "Ever since I met him." "Does he feel the same way?" "It's alright with me, kid, if that's what you want." "Do you mean that, Bat?" "Sure." "Why not?" "Why..." "I wish I could make Jock see it that way." "Well, you stick around." "I'll have a talk with Patrick." "Maybe I can fix things up." "Will you, Bat?" "I said maybe." "Hello, Lil, Bat..." "Hello." "Sit down, Mr. Patrick." "Make yourself at home." "Thanks." "Lillian Russell?" "Sure, with pleasure." "Try one of mine." "A fellow in Havana makes them especially for me." "Oh, thanks." "How about a little drink?" "Anything you say." "This oughta fix you up alright." "What's it all about?" "Don't get nervous." "Take it easy." "We're all friends around here." "Did you get rid of those Cheyenne bills yet?" "Not yet." "Know anybody who'll handle them for me?" "I might." "You're kind of hard up, aren't you?" "No, I'll get along." "Not sticking up jewelry stores in this town you won't." "Sit down, will ya." "Oh, don't waste any more time." "Let me give it to him..." "Cheese it!" "Alright, Patrick." "Fork 'em over." "Don't you know this sort of stuff won't bring ten cents on the dollar?" "I know that you grabbed it quick enough when you found out where it was." "Shut your trap!" "We don't want any of that trash around here." "This stuff goes back where it came from." "Alright." "What happens now?" "Patrick..." "Suppose we were to forget all about this little trick and let you in on some easy money?" "What do you mean easy money?" "Oh, helping me with a few little odd jobs around here... while Jock is thinking up some new jokes." "Hey, you ain't figuring on using him around here, are you?" "We can use somebody around here with a little brains that can keep their mouth shut and stay out of arguments." "You ain't bringing him in." "I have something to say about it." "I'd sooner see him out in the gutter..." "Shut up!" "Alright, Patrick." "What do you say?" "Well, I don't know." "I've always worked alone." "A lot of dough in it." "Not so many chances." "That smells fishy to me." "First this guy here socks me in the chin then you frisk me and now you want me to join up." "No, thanks." "If I'd have wanted company I would have joined the Elks." "Now don't go off halfcocked, Patrick." "Here's a little dough." "Put it in your pocket." "Go outside and buy yourself a drink." "Take a look around." "Take a squint at that new act they brought in from Chicago." "Think it over." "I'll see you later." "Sure." "I'll think it over." "I'll give him something to think over." "Forget it!" "If he wants to play ball with me, I can use him." "If he doesn't, we always got him where we want him." "What?" "Sticking up a jewelry store is against the law ain't it?" "Besides, Doc might like someone he can make an example of." "Oh, yes." "I didn't think of that." "Bat, you aren't going to turn him over to the bulls, are you?" "He had his chance." "But you wouldn't do anything like that." "You promised me." "Why, that dirty little crook." "After all the trouble we've had in trying to keep this place straight." "We'll show the smart aleck at guy he can't come here and get away with that sort of thing in St. Paul." "Hey, where are you going, Lil?" "Leave her alone." "Just because she made dem goo-goo eyes," "She thought I'd won a home and she picked a prize" "She is the best what is and I need her in my biz," "Just because she made dem goo-goo eyes." "Joe!" "Oh, hello." "Come on, sit down." "Joe, you've got to do it." "Do what?" "Go in with Bat like he said." "He sent you out here to say that?" "You know he didn't." "Alright, what's the game?" "What's this all about?" "I don't know exactly, but they'll turn you over to the police for that holdup if you don't." "Joe!" "It's a fine pair of pals you've got." "I know, they're only thinking of themselves." "If I beat it, they'll put the cops on my trail." "If I stay here, I'll probably get Jock's knife in my back." "The only thing to do is to get in with him." "Doesn't look like I've got much choice in the matter, does it?" "You only have to stay until this blows over." "It may not be such a bad idea at that." "In the first place I could see a lot more of you, openly, I mean." "It'll work out, I know it will." "Hey, I'm beginning to believe what you meant about liking me." "You know I do." "You're the first one in my whole life that I..." "I felt like this about." "I guess we're a lot alike deep down, you and me." "You mean that?" "Go and tell Bat I'm in." "Then come right back here." "I got a thousand things to tell you... before I wet my whistle." "That telegram with the numbers just came from the east." "I'm gonna be in Madison Friday night." "If Patrick wants to come along, it's alright with me." "You get the finest Japanese jiu-jitsu expert you can find and I'll get the best American wrestler." "So I had Grant." "Had them at the House last night, just the family and a few friends." "I refereed." "Come on, Maxwell, come on!" "You should take more exercise." "You're puffing like a wax steamer." "For a while it looked as though the Japanese had it on him." "He put one over, caught Grant from the shoulders, kicked him in the stomach and down Grant went in the heat." "But quick as a flash, he was up and pinned the Japanese wrestler's shoulders to the mat." "I knew it all the time." "I said so before." "American wrestlers got it all over jiu-jitsu." "I knew it." "Try them both." "Well, here we are." "The President is expecting you, sir." "Come on, Max, come on." "You can't keep the President waiting." "Here we are." "On the dot." "Sit down, Teddy." "Good morning, Mr. Maxwell." "Good morning, Mr. President, gentlemen." "Cigars?" "No, thank you." "I had one just now." "I thought it best to have some of the members of the Cabinet here along with Mr. Wallace of the Secret Service to hear what you have to say." "Go ahead, Henry." "Repeat what you were saying to me in my office." "Mr. President, this bank robbery business has got to stop." "Last night $50.000 was taken from a Madison Bank." "As examiner of the national banks" "I give you my solemn word that businessmen everywhere, including bankers, are losing faith in an administration which permits such lawlessness to go unchecked." "I can only endorse what Mr. Maxwell has said." "At the same time I must frankly admit we're helpless." "With all due respect to you, Mr. Wallace, you can hardly expect me to say to the business interests of this country" "'Your government is helpless.'" "'Mr." "Wallace's secret service has thrown up its hands.'" "'You'll have to get along as best you can.'" "Mr. President... if you feel there's any other man in the country better qualified to carry on this job," "I'll gladly step aside." "You're doing all that any man in your position could do." "Handicapped as you are by lack of men and funds." "May I suggest that you get more men, more funds?" "By gad, he's right." "Let me handle this situation." "I'll organize a police force that will turn this country inside out." "I'll swear in every rough rider who climbs San Juan Hill." "I'll put soldiers around every bank in the Midwest." "I'll catch these men and smack the truth out of them." "That's an idea." "I've been preaching it for weeks." "The time is past for pussyfooting and weasel words." "If these men want war, let's give them war wherever we find them." "You can't fight men like these with words and vague hopes." "It's all very well to talk softly, but you got to carry a stick." "A big stick." "That's a nice phrase, Theodore." "You ought to use it publicly sometime." "Yes, talk softly." "No, speak softly..." "Speak softly and carry a big stick." "That's better." "More illustrative." "I'll remember that, Mr. Root." "Mr. Wallace, what do you think?" "There's a lot of truth in what Mr. Maxwell has said." "And a lot of good sound sense in Mr. Roosevelt's suggestions." "I'm inclined to agree, gentlemen." "I had hope that we might get a lead but apparently not." "So go ahead, Mr. Wallace." "You have complete authority." "Do anything you see fit." "But get me the names of the persons behind all this." "Thank you, Mr. President." "That's the kind of words my bankers want to hear." "Well, that's all." "I'm going for a horseback ride with Alice." "Goodbye." "Goodbye, Teddy." "Goodbye." "Goodbye." "Remember what I said." "Speak softly and carry a big stick." "Fill it up, fill it up, Don't you leave her, fill it up." "Another one for you and another one for me." "Fill it up, fill it up." "For a nickel fill it up... and you'll get your prayers so absolutely free." "Carry Nation is a suffragette involved in how they bluffragette" "How she worries 'bout everybody's wrong." "'Stead of spending afternoons chopping up beer saloons why don't she stay at home where she belongs?" "There was an old beer bottle sailing across the foam" "There was an old beer bottle a many a mile from home." "and in it was a message and this was written on" "Whoever finds this bottle will find the beer is gone." "The beer is gone..." "So fill it up, fill it up, For a nickel fill it up." "and you'll get your prayers so absolutely free." "Yes, sir, Mr. Bat." "Get a hold of Mr. Ramsay and Joe Patrick." "Tell them I want to see them in here right away." "Yes, sir, Mr. Bat." "I'll go and get 'em." "Jock, you and Joe get your things packed." "We're leaving town." "Yeah?" "Where are we going this time?" "Baltimore." "Baltimore?" "We're kind of branching out, ain't we?" "Yeah." "The President's getting a little fidgety." "He's putting special guards in every bank in the Middle West." "Why Baltimore?" "That's no place to hide out, is it?" "They've got banks there, haven't they?" "Sure." "Then use your head." "They move west so we move east." "We'll walk into the Gorman National right under their noses." "Catch them napping and pull a haul that is a haul." "How did you find out all this?" "We got a friend." "Yeah, but if the government staff is in that puts a new light on the situation." "I'd like to know who this big guy is that can take care of things so easily." "Never mind." "I'll take care of you." "Well, that sounds alright, but suppose something happens to you." "Then I'll take care of you." "Yeah, that's what I'm afraid of." "Nothing happened to you in Madison, did it?" "No." "Then nothing will happen to you in Baltimore." "Just you leave things to me." "Alright, you're the boss." "Lil can stay here and take care of things." "We're catching the 2 o'clock train." "I'll handle the reservations." "Well, I think I'll slide over to the hotel and pack." "Sure, go ahead." "Hey, what are you taking him for?" "I'm alright." "We can handle things without him." "Well, of course we could leave him here to take care of Lil." "What?" "Oh, no, no, he's gonna come right with us." "While strolling through the park one day in the very month of May" "I was taken by surprise by a pair of roguish eyes in a moment my poor heart was stole away." "A smile was all she gave to me" "Of course we were happy as can be." "I immediately raised my hat and finally she remarked" "I shall never forget that lovely afternoon" "I met her at the fountain in the park." "While strolling through the park one day in the very month of May" "Thought you might like to know that Bat, and Jock and I are leaving town tonight." "Tonight?" "Lil!" "Lil!" "Stay right there." "I've got to talk to you." "Where are you going?" "Baltimore." "Joe, you can't go." "Why not?" "Don't you see, this is our chance to get away." "We could be gone before they know it." "And give up all that easy money?" "Joe, I can't stand it like this any longer." "Let's get away while we can, please." "Joe, did you mean it when you said you loved me?" "You know I did." "Then you've got to do what I ask." "You've got to make up your mind right now whether you're going with them or coming with me." "But, Lil..." "I'm no saint but I'm not blind either." "I know Bat and Jock didn't open the Capital on nothing." "Perhaps I've closed my eyes to a lot of things but you're in on it now and I'm worried." "Let's get away from it." "From Bat, from Jock, from all of it." "We'll only be gone a few days." "If you go to Baltimore..." "I won't be here when you get back." "I'd rather have it over with once and for all than go on like this." "Please say you'll go, now, tonight." "Alright, I'll go." "I'll meet you at the hotel as soon as I can get out of here." "Hey, what..." "Give me that." "Sit down." "Pretty good likeness, don't you think?" "Why you dirty little..." "Joe." "Joe!" "Joe, we've got to hurry..." "Joe!" "It's alright, Lil." "Sure it's alright." "I love Joe, do you understand?" "I love him." "I see, I got eyes." "I never loved you, you know that." "Sure I know it." "You're right to choose the man you want." "And I, like a sucker, thought it was me." "So long as it ain't, forget it." "You don't have to run out on account of me." "Do you mean that, Jock?" "Why not?" "Sure I do." "It's a free country, ain't it?" "Besides, you're not the only pebble on the beach." "Patrick, I'll see you at the station." "He's lying, Joe, That wasn't him speaking." "He wouldn't let me go like this." "He won't do anything." "You don't know him the way I do." "We've got to leave right away." "I'm sorry, Lil." "But I'm going to Baltimore." "Oh, no, Joe, you can't." "You promised me." "You wouldn't want me to run away, would you?" "But you've got to come with me." "Something will happen, I know it, I feel it." "This is my affair, Lil." "You gotta let me handle it my own way." "He'll kill you, Joe." "No, he won't." "I'll take care of that." "Now you better run along." "I gotta pack." "I'll say goodbye at the depot." "Hello, Wallace?" "Listen, Brad." "I've just got word that those bank bandits are moving eastward." "Gorman National Bank." "Baltimore." "Yes. of course, Mr. President, I'll attend to it personally." "May I ask where you got the information?" "I'm sorry, Brad, but I can't divulge the source to anyone." "But Mr. President... you must realize that any clue of this kind would be most valuable." "I understand, Brad, but it's impossible." "No you keep the bank covered." "At last we're getting somewhere." "Get me Mr. Maxwell at the Bank Examiner's Office." "Mr. Maxwell, President McKinley on the telephone." "Yes, Mr. President?" "Maxwell, I've some splendid news for you." "I believe we're about to put an end to all these bank robberies." "Well, this is great news." "Have you any definite information?" "Yes, Maxwell." "But it's absolutely impossible for me to tell you anymore at this time." "That's what I've been waiting to hear, Mr. President." "Thank you." "I want to make a call on the long distance telephone." "Get me Baltimore." "Century Hotel." "Cancel that long distance call." "I'll pull the burglar alarm switch." "You come with me, Joe." "Are you about through in there?" "In a minute." "I'll take this one out." "It's clean in there." "Look in that box on top there." "Crouch!" "Start crawling." "Where's Joe?" "Coming." "Somebody framed us." "Somebody's tipped them off." "Shut up!" "I'm not going to." "I'm gonna shoot it out." "Got them both." "This one's still alive." "This one's cold as a cucumber." "Come on out." "With your hands up." "Well what do you know about that?" "Trying to hide in the vault." "Keep 'em up." "Extra!" "Late edition!" "Read all about it!" "Two officers slain." "Bank awards widows $10.000." "And I sentence you to the Maryland State Penitentiary." "there to remain until you've paid the penalty of this commonwealth's justice." "which is to hang by the neck until you are dead." "What happens now?" "Nothing." "Nothing till they put that rope around our necks." "They ain't gonna put no rope around my neck." "We'll be out of here before you know it." "Yeah?" "If we got so much protection, why didn't we get some over at the trial?" "Well, maybe he's got a reason." "He'll show up when the time comes." "But there are only twelve days left." "Why don't he do something?" "I ain't worrying." "Well I am." "I can't sleep, I can't think." "All I can see is that rope." "He's gonna let us die, I tell you." "Say... if I could get in there two minutes with you, I'd stop your yelling." "He'll come, I tell you." "He'll get us out of here." "Hey, let me show you a trick." "Here, take a card." "Anyone you like." "Don't let me see it now." "Put it back." "Shuffle it." "Did you uh... did you take the..." "Yeah... the ace of spades." "Good trick, wasn't it, huh?" "I dreamed about it again last night." "Shut up, will ya!" "I dreamed they came in and took us out, me and you." "We were going up those steps." "There were thirteen of them." "I counted them over and over again." "Aw, you have bats in your belfry." "I ain't gonna swing." "Not me." "You kept calling for somebody." "I couldn't catch his name, but he didn't answer." "Nobody ever answered." "Aw, keep your nightmares to yourself." "You gotta tell me who it is." "We're in the same boat." "I got a right to know." "Well, I ain't telling nothing, see?" "I don't believe there's anybody." "You're lying." "There never was anybody." "How do you reckon I got those vault numbers, huh?" "Then he's run out on us." "Maybe things are getting too hot for him." "You're crazy!" "Yeah, he sent us to Baltimore, didn't he?" "There were a million cops around the place, weren't there?" "Who tipped them off?" "That was an accident." "Yeah, I suppose this jail's just an accident too." "Quit your yapping, will you?" "They're testing the ropes." "Nothing's happened yet." "Maybe he's gotta work on the quiet." "Yeah, but he could have sent us some word." "But we still got time, we got time." "For what?" "To sit here and go crazy?" "We gotta get to him." "Well, I ain't." "I ain't given in yet." "You know what I think?" "I think he wants to see us hang." "We know too much." "He can't double cross me like that." "Not that guy." "Yeah?" "I wouldn't trust the best friend I got in the world." "When it comes to hanging no one's gonna step in and talk." "He'll spring us, I know he will." "When?" "When it's too late?" "When we're dead?" "Oh, he'll come, he'll come." "I'll bet he's laughing at us right this minute." "I'll bet he even comes to the hanging." "Oh, shut up, will ya?" "Shut up!" "He's gonna watch us going up those steps." "Shut up" Shut up, I tell ya!" "He wants to see them put that black cap over our heads and watch them tie that knot and see us drop." "He'll be there to see us kicking and twisting." "Oh, shut up, will you, shut up!" "It won't be his neck!" "He won't have to hang there gasping for breath until his eyes pop out of his head and his tongue spreads wide open and his heart bursts." "It's us, you and me are gonna die, not him." "Can't you see that, you a poor blind fool?" "Sucker, that's what you are!" "That's what you've always been." "Bat was right when he said you were dumb." "Lil knew it, I knew it." "You're letting this guy whoever he is make a fool of you." "Well he wouldn't make a fool out of me." "I'd yell my head off!" "Yeah... yeah..." "That's it, that's it, the dirty rat!" "That's what he wants." "He thinks I'm dumb too." "But he's got another thing coming." "I'm not gonna sit here and just save him!" "Let him try putting that rope around his neck for a change." "Let him see how it feels." "He can't get away with this with me!" "I'll get out of here!" "I'll get out of here if I have to tear the place down, I'll get out of here." "I'll get out of here!" "Oh, no." "Now he's got you." "He's laughing at you right now." "I can just hear him." "Yeah, that's what he's doing." "A big man, huh?" "Big office!" "Big Bank Examiner!" "Bank Examiner of the United States!" "Oh, I'll get you, Maxwell!" "I'll get you, Maxwell!" "If it's the last thing I do!" "I won't hang for you, Maxwell !" "I'll kill ya!" "I'll get ya..." "I don't care what pull you've got!" "You won't make a fool out of me." "I'm Jock Ramsay!" "Stand back and give us your hands." "You can't treat a person like this!" "You can't." "I'm not gonna hang for you!" "No!" "I'll tear the place down!" "Take it easy, we're gonna give you a change of scene." "I'll get ya." "I'll get ya!" "I'll get..." "I'll get ya, Maxwell." "Get out of here!" "Hey, Tim, I gotta see the warden right away." "The warden's not here." "He's never here at night." "But I gotta, Tim." "It's serious." "I got some information he wants." "Alright, I'll see what I can do in the morning." "I've got to get this letter to President McKinley, sir." "If you have an appeal to make, Patrick, you'll have to let your lawyer handle it through the regular channels." "But isn't it true, sir, that any man going to his death is given the privilege of a last request?" "Well, yes, ordinarily." "Anything within reason." "What possible harm can there be in letting me send this letter to the president?" "Oh, well, go ahead." "But you're wasting your time." "Thank you, sir." "May I have an envelope?" "Thank you, sir." "Hey, Tim!" "Any word for me?" "No, not a thing." "Are you positive?" "There ought to be a messenger by now." "I'll let you know as soon as there is." "I'll sure be glad to get out of this place." "Sure, I guess you would." "Hey, Tim!" "Yeah?" "Did you hear about President McKinley?" "McKinley?" "I knew it would come." "What of it!" "No, what?" "He just got shot a couple of hours ago up in Buffalo." "Well, what do you know about that?" "The assassin was in line with a whole lot of others shaking hands with the president." "Had his arm all bound up like it was broken, but it wasn't." "That's where he had his gun wrapped in a handkerchief." "They got the fellow whoever he was." "They don't know about the president yet." "All I now is the shot went right through his stomach." "Any news about the president?" "The papers say he's taken a turn for the better." "I sure hope he has." "What is it, any news?" "The president is dead." "Lil!" "Oh, Lil, I thought I told you to stay away from here." "Joe, I had to come." "I had to see you." "But I don't want you mixed up in this." "What do I care?" "Tomorrow I'll die too." "Isn't there a chance?" "Isn't there anything we can do?" "There might be." "I'll do anything, you know that." "But first there's something I got to tell you." "You'll probably hate me for this, but I gotta tell you anyhow." "How can I ever hate you?" "Try to understand this." "My name's not Joe Patrick, it's Richard Perry." "Lots of people change their names." "I know, but that was all a lie about my getting into trouble in Cheyenne and having to hide out." "I've never been to Cheyenne in my life." "Joe..." "What are you trying to tell me?" "That I'm not any of the things you think I am." "I was lieutenant in the navy." "President McKinley sent me to find out who was robbing those banks." "I feigned it so Bat would find those banknotes on me." "I staged the jewelry holdup just to get in good with him." "I understand." "And part of the frame-up was pretending you loved me." "That's not true." "I do love you." "At first maybe I tried not to, but I do." "You lied once." "How do I know you aren't still lying?" "Darling, you've got to believe me." "You used me to get Bat and Jock." "No, it wasn't Bat and Jock so much." "It was the man behind them." "Well..." "Don't you know who he is yet?" "Yes, I know." "Then what are you doing here?" "Why don't your friends get you out?" "Nobody knew about this but me and President McKinley." "Well..." "Maybe there is some justice after all." "If I could get word to Admiral Dewey, he might help." "The warden won't let me get in touch with him." "He thinks I'm crazy." "Says my story is just a trick to get a reprieve." "What do you want to tell Admiral Dewey?" "The whole story." "And I can prove it too, with the message I sent the president the day he was shot." "See this?" "That's it." "That mark in the lower right hand corner of the envelope." "And you think I might help you?" "You still think you can use me again?" "Well, that's great." "Why you low down, contemptible stool pigeon." "I'm glad they're going to hang you." "Guard!" "Open this door!" "Let me out of here?" "Lil!" "And if I can work it..." "I'll be there to see them put the rope around your neck." "Li!" "Take your hands off of me!" "Now let's see you lie your way out of this." "Lil!" "Lil!" "Read all about the hanging!" "They're hanging Patrick and Ramsay tomorrow morning." "Read all about the hanging!" "What will it be?" "Rye, straight." "I'm as good a newspaperman as any of you." "But do they let me go to the hanging?" "No, but who said I was going?" "Do you think I could get a ticket?" "I'd be lucky if they let me cover the funeral." "I got one!" "I got one!" "What?" "A pass for the hanging." "Look!" "I'll give you ten dollars for it." "Ten dollars?" "I wouldn't take a hundred." "This is the first double-header in fifteen years." "You're not going to see him hang!" "Nobody's gonna see him hang!" "Take ne to the railroad station as fast as you can." "Yes, mam." "It's incredible, unbelievable." "Please, you've got to believe it." "Alright, have him come in." "Here she is, officer." "But I don't..." "I'm sorry, it's necessary to put you under arrest." "You may be telling the truth." "Then again it may be a trick to get those men out of jail." "I can't take any chances." "Notify President Roosevelt." "We're on our way." "Yes, sir." "Mr. President, this is the young woman I told you about on the telephone." "I would like you to hear her story." "Be seated, please." "Go right ahead, Miss Duryea." "Hello, Father." "Well, is there anything I can do for you?" "Some request you'd like to make?" "Yes, Father." "Just one request." "What is it?" "Give me a gun and five minutes outside of here." "I've got a few last minute jobs I gotta attend to." "Think what you're saying." "In a little while you'll be going to meet your maker." "Maybe I am and maybe I ain't." "The only thing that's worrying me is leaving that lowdown dirty scum behind in this world." "Grant thou that this poor erring mortal may see the truth before it's too late." "Sit down, Father." "I wanna show you something." "Take a card." "Anyone at all." "Put it back in the pack." "Now shuffle it." "Go through all the mail that had come for President McKInley in the past two weeks." "See if you can find... a letter with this mark in the lower right-hand corner of the envelope." "Yes, Mr. President." "Get all the help you need." "If you find it, bring it to me immediately." "Yes, sir." "Good and merciful God, who according to thy mercy and loving kindness, forgivest the sins of such as repent and graciously remittest the guilt of their past offenses mercifully regard this thy servant and grant him full remission of his sins" "who most earnestly begs it of thee." "Remove, O most loving Father, whatsoever hath been corrupted in him..." "Is this the one you meant, Mr. President?" "Do you recognize the handwriting?" "Yes, that's it!" "Put me through to George Andrews, President McKinley's secretary." "I believe he's still in Buffalo." "This is Andrews speaking." "Oh..." "Yes, Mr. President." "Do you know anything about a letter with a secret mark on it that Mr. McKinley was expecting?" "Secret mark?" "No, not that I remember." "You're quite sure of that?" "Well, I guess there's nothing to it." "Sorry to have bothered you." "Young woman, you almost got away with it." "But you didn't." "And I intend to make an example of you." "Officer!" "But it's the truth, I swear it is!" "You can't let him hang!" "Take this woman out and keep her under arrest." "Yes, sir." "You can't do this!" "Please, you must believe me!" "Come on, young lady." "Oh, no..." "I'm sorry, Mr. President," "I should have realized this was simply a desperate scheme to save those men." "It's alright, Dewey." "Hello?" "What's that?" "It all comes back to me now." "Mr. McKinley telling me if this mark should be found in any of his mail, and he was unavailable..." "I should go to his safe and find the explanation among his papers." "Thanks, Andrews, that's all !" "Have them bring that young lady back !" "Yes, Mr. President." "It was Andrews." "He remembered about that secret mark." "Get me the warden of the State Penitentiary in Baltimore." "I'll hold the line." "Young lady, this is one time when the President of the United States will have to apologize." "Hello!" "Hello!" "Hurry that call!" "This is the warden's office." "This is President Roosevelt speaking." "Yes, Mr. President." "Are the executions over?" "One of them?" "Which one?" "Stay the execution of that man." "You'll receive confirmation from your government directly." "And have the man brought to me as quickly as possible." "Yes?" "He did?" "Patrick's execution is stayed." "Thank heaven!" "Of all the criminals there are loose in the world we almost hanged an innocent man." "Get me the governor of Maryland on the telephone." "And now, young lady..." "Oh, my." "She must have slipped out while you were talking on the telephone." "Fred!" "Fred!" "Fred, did you let that young woman leave?" "Yes, sir." "I thought you..." "Shall I stop her, sir?" "No, never mind." "It's alright." "Poor child." "I guess she's gone through quite enough for one night." "I hum a waltz hmm-hmm... when you come to me on a night like this."
