Excerpt from The Flying Death

Now, on this cool September midnight he rose, struck a light, and found himself facing two neat, little, beribboned perfume jars, representing the decorative ideas of little Mrs. Johnston, the hostess of Third House. It was too much. Resentment at this Shabby practical joke Of Fate rose in his soul. Seizing the pair Of bottles, he hurled them mightily, one after the other, into outer darkness. The crash of the second upon the stone wall surrounding the little hotel was rather startlingly followed by an exclamation.

I beg your pardon, cried Colton, rather abashed. Hope I didn't hit you.

You did not - with the second missile, said the voice dryly.

It was very stupid Of me. The fact is, Colton continued, groping for an excuse, I heard some kind of a noise outside and I thought it was a cat.

Where did you hear it? Interrupted the Voice rather sharply. Did it seem to be on the ground, or in mid-air?
