I saw, the sev- en black tin boxes with bras clamps, handed out of the guard van and placed on the roof of a t b. I knew as though it were foredoomed that the contents of those boxes would he mine before the week was out. I felt certain, too, that one at least of the two men would fight to death before I ob- tained possesion of them. They were wel] worth it, however It was a foggy night, and I lin- cred with perfect «safety on the outskirts of the little throng of peo- ple who had come to greet these two men, They were a rough lot, on the whole—men of the lowest tyne, swafthy and unclean. I saw hungry glances directed toward thoe black boxes, and I knew that, given sufficient cunning and address, I would not be the first by a long wi to trike a blow for their ac- quisition, But of these others I had no fear. Gorty and Metzger knew their friends, knew them well enough not to trust them.
