Alan looked at Geoffrey inquiring- |ly. : "Yes," the latter said, “I had, old man. But now that Miss West has admitted so much,' I'll admit that I had the advantage of you. I knew her for a scheming, little rascal of some kind." He paused and appeared to want to say some- thing more, but was, evidently, not going to say it.
