In that small country town there cannot surely be much work for a lawyer, and a Visitor must be quite an event. Instead, however, of using the tube they turn to the elder clerk, and ai Whispered conversation takes place, of Which some broken sentences may be caught He can't be dis turbed, ' 'it'sno use, ' 'must wait.' T hen the elder clerk looks over his brass rail and says he is very sorry, but the principal is engaged, the directors of a company are With him, and it is quite impossible to say exactly When they Will leave. It may be ten minutes, or an hour. But if you like to wait (pointing With his quill to a chair) your name shall be sent up directly the directors leave.
