Miss Alma Buckley did not seem at all anxious for that interview so desired by young Sellars. He had written her a very polite letter, forwarded by her obliging agent, stating that he wished to see her for a few minutes on a private matter which it was difficult to enter into by correspondence, and inviting her to name a day and hour suitable to herself. He had found out that she was appearing nightly at certain suburban music-halls, and judged from this fact that she would appoint a morning or an afternoon.
He waited three days for an answer, but as none came, he dispatched a second missive expressing his fear that his first had miscarried, and begging the favour of a reply by return.
