It’s worth a fortune to the man who gets it, and I understand that there are more vacancies than there are men.” “Why,what is this ‘League?’ I asked.You e, Mr. Holmes, I am a very stay-at-home. My business comes to me and I am often weeks on end without putting my foot over the door-mat.

This American came from London, and he wanted to do something good for the old town. And ,I have heard,you can’t apply if your hair is light red, or dark red,or anything but real bright,blazing,fiery red. Your hair is perfect, Mr.Wilson, if you want to apply.
