Many
apologies
for
not
sending
you
sooner
the
enclosed
check
,
which
represents
the
customary
percentage
on
the
sale
of
the
Letters
.
”
“
Trusting
you
will
excuse
the
oversight
,
“
Yours
truly
,
“
Stephen
Glennard
.
”
He
let
himself
out
of
the
darkened
house
and
dropped
the
letter
in
the
post
-
box
at
the
corner
.
The
next
afternoon
he
was
detained
late
at
his
office
,
and
as
he
was
preparing
to
leave
he
heard
someone
asking
for
him
in
the
outer
room
.
He
seated
himself
again
and
Flamel
was
shown
in
.
The
two
men
,
as
Glennard
pushed
aside
an
obstructive
chair
,
had
a
moment
to
measure
each
other
;
then
Flamel
advanced
,
and
drawing
out
his
note
-
case
,
laid
a
slip
of
paper
on
the
desk
.
“
My
dear
fellow
,
what
on
earth
does
this
mean
?
”
Glennard
recognized
his
check
.
“
That
I
was
remiss
,
simply
.
It
ought
to
have
gone
to
you
before
.
”
