On leaving Roake he had return- ed to the inn and procureq his own gorgeous car and immaculate chauf- feur, During the short drive he took the into fuller confi- dence, though the nature of their nversation showed that Peters, | the chauffeur, had been initiated in | the general trend of things already Some 300 yards from the Honey- | | bun home the car was stopped and | the noble owner got out | war latter “You know what you've got to| {40, he sa ¢ that you do it VO‘ a ek, Half a minute’s deviation | from the time table might make all I'the difference between life death to several people.” | Peters touched his cap -and| | watehed his master swing oft along |the road ang disappear into the| | gates of Mr. Honeybun's abode.
