Sam Paladin, meanwhile, after a half-hour’s meditation, during which he sometimes smiled and sometimes looked grave, transferred himself to Mayne’s habitation, and went into private session with that distracted personage.
“The boy is in love with the girl,” he told him, “and love is the best sleuth in the world. He knows something—wouldn’t say what—he is on edge, body and soul, and whatever is humanly possible, he will do to find her. Of course, your girl may not care for him; but if she does, the problem will be the easier. It wouldn’t surprise me if we got a message before evening. Some accident has occurred, no doubt; but there’s no reason to suppose it serious. In these times of occult researches very funny things sometimes happen; but they commonly turn out all right. If I thought otherwise, I should advise you to get drunk. As it is, take a cold shower and a nap.”
