"Are either Mr. Chadwick or Mr. Jesson about?"

"Are either Mr. Chadwick or Mr. Jesson about?" "Humph!" and the gangling, rather disagreeable-looking youth who had answered the summons to the door of the Boy Inventors' workshop, gave a supercilious look over the dusty and worn, although carefully mended, clothes of the dark-eyed, dark-haired, slender youth who confronted him. "What do you want to know that for, anyhow?" and upon the personal pronoun he placed a contemptuous emphasis. "That is a question to which I can only reply when I can see either Jack Chadwick or Tom Jesson personally.

"Well, you can't speak to them." This with an air of finality. "But you don't understand--" "I do, perfectly. They are both far too busy to bother with any inquisitive kind of tramp that happens along." "Then you won't let them know I would like to see them?" The other's voice rose angrily. "I said 'No' once. N-O-no! Isn't that enough?" "Quite enough."
