CHAPTER I: THE REACHING OF A DECISION
For the second time that night Frederick Cavendish, sitting at a small
table in a busy cafe where the night life of the city streamed
continually in and out, regarded the telegram spread out upon the white
napery. It read:
Bear Creek, Colorado, 4/2/15.
FREDERICK CAVENDISH,
College Club,
New York City
