Malvine

It was from Hogarth, Wiley and Malvine, a well known firm of construction engineers.

All too soon the week allowed him by Hogarth, Wiley and Malvine passed; all too soon the sinister three paid him another visit.

He turned so white, under the coat of brown the mountains had given, that Malvine was startled.

So also was Malvine; but she began now to ask herself if the news alone had sufficed to snatch her guests so suddenly away.

And just in the background, devilishly gaping, were Hogarth and Malvine.
