CHAPTER XII. IN NEW YORK

THREE mornings later, Keith Ellerton awoke to the tune of an alarm clock and took a pleased look around the tiny apartment which he occupied. He had moved here the night before at the suggestion of his friend Glenn Torbin, who had returned to New York the previous afternoon.

Glenn had provided Keith with more than an apartment; he had obtained a job for him, the day before.

This morning, Keith was to report to Howard Brock, manager of the Tropical Steamship Lines. The office where Keith would find Brock was on the sixtieth floor of the Wall Street Trust Building.

Keith was dressed and ready to leave the apartment, when he heard a ring from the lobby door. Puzzled about how to admit a visitor, Keith went downstairs, where he found a young man pressing the button of 2B, which happened to be Keith’s apartment. Keith gave him an inquiring look.

“You’re ringing my apartment?”

The visitor looked puzzled. He pointed to the number 2B. Beside it, Keith saw a printed name cut from a calling card, which read: “Richard J. Brann.”
