Rupert of Hentzau

CHAPTER VII
4/30

"The bag may come, and I have no reason to doubt the fellow's honesty." This, I thought, would be the end of my connection with Master Bauer.

He had served Rupert's turn, and would now disappear from the scene.

Indeed it may be that Rupert would have liked to dispense with further aid from him; but he had few whom he could trust, and was compelled to employ those few more than once.

At any rate he had not done with Bauer, and I very soon received proof of the fact.

My house is a couple of miles from the station, and we have to pass through a considerable part of the old town, where the streets are narrow and tortuous and progress necessarily slow.
