It was a sweltering noon in July, Gregory, after several months of meditation on the warning given him by his poli­tical friend, during which time nothing to substantiate it had occurred was making ready to return to the seaside hotel to which his prosperity entitled him. It was a great affair, the Triton, about sixty minutes from his office, facing the sea and amid the pines and sands of the island. His wife, «girl» as he conventionally referred to her, had been compelled in spite of the plot which had been revealed or suggested, ow­ing to the ailing state of their child, to go up the moun­tains to her mother for advice and comfort.
Owing to the im­minence of the fall campaign, however, he could riot possi­bly leave. Week-days and Sundays, and occasionally nights he was busy ferreting out and substantiating one fact and ano­ther in regard to the mismanagement of the city, which was to be used as ammunition a little later on. The Mayor and his «ring», as it was called, were to be ousted, at all costs. He, Gregory was certain to be rewarded if that came to pass. In spite of that he was eminently sin­cere as to the value and even the necessity of what he was doing. The city was being grossy mismanaged.
