Following is an account of expenses incurred during my investigation of the twin trouble matter.
Expense account item one, $1.20 for a taxi over to George Reed's office at Floyd's of England in downtown Hartford.
I found him pacing the floor waiting for me.
And needless to say, he didn't waste any time getting down to business.
As I told you over the phone, Johnny, this matter involves my brother, my twin brother Adam.
Oh, you're a twin?
Yes, we're identical in every way, except perhaps for our manner of speaking.
Why is that?
Well, you see, Adam completed his education at the University of Dublin, whereas I stayed on in England, then did postgraduate work over here.
Oh, I see.
About 18 years ago, Adam and his wife came here to the United States.
Is he also with some branch of Floyd's of England?
No, Johnny, Adam owns a small brokerage office down in Newark, New Jersey.
He lives in a nearby town called Upper Montclair.
Say, tell me, has this business of his anything to do with the threat against his life?
Everything, I'm afraid.
Now, don't tell me he went around selling a lot of worthless stocks and bonds and now somebody wants to get even with him.
Of course not.
Adam is a completely honest, reliable dealer in legitimate security.
Then what's the trouble?
