I
'll
bet
anything
it
's
the
same
fellow
,
"
commented
Ratterer
,
consulting
a
small
registry
slip
that
had
been
handed
him
.
"
Looka
here
--
Samuel
Griffiths
,
Lycurgus
,
N.
Y.
That
's
probably
the
same
guy
,
eh
?
"
"
Surest
thing
you
know
,
"
added
Clyde
,
very
much
interested
and
even
excited
,
for
this
was
the
identical
uncle
about
whom
he
had
been
thinking
so
long
.
"
He
just
went
through
here
a
few
minutes
ago
,
"
went
on
Ratterer
.
"
Devoy
took
his
bags
up
to
K.
Swell-looking
man
,
too
.
You
better
keep
your
eye
open
and
take
a
look
at
him
when
he
comes
down
again
.
Maybe
it
's
your
uncle
.
He
's
only
medium
tall
and
kinda
thin
.
Wears
a
small
gray
mustache
and
a
pearl
gray
hat
.
Good-lookin
'
.
I
'll
point
him
out
to
you
.
If
it
is
your
uncle
you
better
shine
up
to
him
.
Maybe
he
'll
do
somepin
'
for
you
--
give
you
a
collar
or
two
,
"
he
added
,
laughing
.
Clyde
laughed
too
as
though
he
very
much
appreciated
this
joke
,
although
in
reality
he
was
flustered
.
His
uncle
Samuel
!
And
in
this
club
!
Well
,
then
this
was
his
opportunity
to
introduce
himself
to
his
uncle
.
He
had
intended
writing
him
before
ever
he
secured
this
place
,
but
now
he
was
here
in
this
club
and
might
speak
to
him
if
he
chose
.
But
hold
!
What
would
his
uncle
think
of
him
,
supposing
he
chose
to
introduce
himself
?
For
he
was
a
bell-boy
again
and
acting
in
that
capacity
in
this
club
.
What
,
for
instance
,
might
be
his
uncle
's
attitude
toward
boys
who
worked
as
bell-boys
,
particularly
at
his
--
Clyde
's
--
years
.
For
he
was
over
twenty
now
,
and
getting
to
be
pretty
old
for
a
bell-boy
,
that
is
,
if
one
ever
intended
to
be
anything
else
.
A
man
of
his
wealth
and
high
position
might
look
on
bell-hopping
as
menial
,
particularly
bell-boys
who
chanced
to
be
related
to
him
.
He
might
not
wish
to
have
anything
to
do
with
him
--
might
not
even
wish
him
to
address
him
in
any
way
.
It
was
in
this
state
that
he
remained
for
fully
twenty-four
hours
after
he
knew
that
his
uncle
had
arrived
at
this
club
.
The
following
afternoon
,
however
,
after
he
had
seen
him
at
least
half
a
dozen
times
and
had
been
able
to
formulate
the
most
agreeable
impressions
of
him
,
since
his
uncle
appeared
to
be
so
very
quick
,
alert
,
incisive
--
so
very
different
from
his
father
in
every
way
,
and
so
rich
and
respected
by
every
one
here
--
he
began
to
wonder
,
to
fear
even
at
times
,
whether
he
was
going
to
let
this
remarkable
opportunity
slip
.
For
after
all
,
his
uncle
did
not
look
to
him
to
be
at
all
unkindly
--
quite
the
reverse
--
very
pleasant
.
And
when
,
at
the
suggestion
of
Ratterer
,
he
had
gone
to
his
uncle
's
room
to
secure
a
letter
which
was
to
be
sent
by
special
messenger
,
his
uncle
had
scarcely
looked
at
him
,
but
instead
had
handed
him
the
letter
and
half
a
dollar
.
"
See
that
a
boy
takes
that
right
away
and
keep
the
money
for
yourself
,
"
he
had
remarked
.
Clyde
's
excitement
was
so
great
at
the
moment
that
he
wondered
that
his
uncle
did
not
guess
that
he
was
his
nephew
.
But
plainly
he
did
not
.
And
he
went
away
a
little
crest-fallen
.
Later
some
half
dozen
letters
for
his
uncle
having
been
put
in
the
key-box
,
Ratterer
called
Clyde
's
attention
to
them
.
"
If
you
want
to
run
in
on
him
again
,
here
's
your
chance
.
Take
those
up
to
him
.
He
's
in
his
room
,
I
think
.
"
And
Clyde
,
after
some
hesitation
,
had
finally
taken
the
letters
and
gone
to
his
uncle
's
suite
once
more
.
