The United Eastern has located sites for ware- heuses and other facilities there, William Strong has built a store and put in a stock of goods for the district.

While they were discus- ging this unigue theory, Laxton arrives unexpectedly with a mass of pointed questions, es- pecially concerning the sudden ;d of Cousin John and his black bag.
