...cases that are never lost sight of by Yard police until the blame is fin ally and irrevocably fixed. Another case against which there is a general warning is that of a negro who is peddling cigars about the rooms. The cigars, it turns out, are consistently smuggled.

While the American book peddler is described with an effective sense of fun, his Irish colleague is not convincing. We wonder if Mr. Millet ever saw an Irish book agent in actual life.
