We shall be very good friends." It was curious to see how quick Gusher regained his confidence and coolness.
"I mistook you for a gentleman I once met in Havana.

I understand you have been there," resumed Romer, keeping his eyes steadily fixed on Gusher.
"My farer, he has very large estates in ze Havana.

Mine friend, I love ze Havana." Here Gusher put his hand to his heart, and became exuberant.
"It make me so much joy to zink of ze day when I shall be back in mine own Havana." "Knew I had seen you there.

You would'nt be likely to remember me, however.

Let us fill our glasses, and drink to the pleasant days we have spent there--" "Oh, it is so many years since I was so happy zare," interrupted Gusher, coolly.
They filled their glasses and drank to the happy days they had spent in Havana.
