During the course of the meal, he received a message through the extension telephone by his bedside that Larose would be much obliged if he would kindly grant him an interview that morning, and frowning in some annoyance, he had replied that the detective could come up at half-past ten.
He finished his breakfast and then leisurely bathing and dressing, took himself into a small room adjoining his bedroom, a sort of study and business room, and proceeded to go through the morning newspapers.
