Jt 1 AND - i LeDuc was a medium-sized man, wiry, -of build and tough as whale bone. "His eyes were restless and the faint smile which hung habitually about his lips was offset by a hawk ish nose. IJiad knon him ever since we had attended- !the same " school aa youths. . Later on he had naturally gravitated into the service of one of the big detective agencies; had been successful on important cases with a uniformity that mere good luck Could, not account for, and having thus ac' quired a reputation had; established an agency of: his own. I had seen very little of him lit the last ten years, but as boys, we had been more or Jess chummy, the difference in tur ages having been, neutralized by, the phys ical fact of myVbelng considerably larger for my .yeara than was he. I had admired him' in those days for his remarkable agility and strength; ;' As it is quality of brain matter which counts rather than quantity,, bo it Is equally true of muscle. And while Billy was not especially powerfully made as far as appearances went, his muscles were like piano wire and the bulk of his competitor in a physical contest was to him a matter of su preme disregard. Moreover, he was snrewa and pleasant , to meet and a decent fellow withal, aad our, friend ship had wended along smoothly un til the Inevitable-separation of our life paths. As he had never oalled to see me before, it took no rare instinct on my, part to divine that this visit was not purely a social one. Dr. Courtney passed us in the hall on his 'way back to his office, and with a farewell 43alutatIon to him led my old ; friend, up to my private quarters. He seated himself and gave hin a cigar. No soonefhad he got It burning to hfa satisfaction than he broached the subject of his visit - "I have ' just heard .that you have had a robbery Of some consequence," he began. I aBsehted-with the remark that it was a beastly affair. LeDuc'a eyes had always Impressed me as hav ing .the , alertness of a watching hawk's, aM I now noted that they were nicking about the room as though searching for some lost article and apparently-overlooking nothing, He continued: ; "I don't supposeunder the circum' stances that it is necessary for me to state the object of my visit, although I presume I may as well do so. When I got -wind of this affair It occurred to me that perhaps I might be of as sistance to you : professionally, and even'lt that were not $be case thatr would be glad 'to, see you again on general principles. ; So I hurried right over. But bow that we have"shaken hands and looked each other over. am anxious to know the particulars of this affair thief eateher's instinct, you know;. Mind telling nie about It?'1 "Not In the least. Gld you came,' I returned heartily. -Without further ado I briefly outlined the salient facts In the case fia they had 'come under my observation. He then asked me a few questions as to who had pos sessed the keys, and such like, to which I gave him the same answers that I had the police. He listened quiet ly and ; without comment, and then expressed a wish to be Introduced to Uncle Abner, whereupon I immediate ly took him 'to the adjoining room and made them acquainted. LeDuc settled down to business without de- lay. - , . , . - "As you perhaps know, I am a pro fessional detective and cases like this are' strictly , my specialty. I take it for granted that you wish to appre hend the parties who did this job, and .that you would like to recover your money, or as much of it as possible, That being , the case I. would like to make an arrangement "with, you.'
