I wasn't fool enough to break the rule aboutcoming downstairs when she had sitters. Let her catch me spyin', andthe bird's gone. But last Sunday night I had a fair chance. I knew itwould come if I waited. There's three servants under me--Mary the cook, who's a hussy; and Martin the furnace man, who's a drunk; and Ellen, who's a fool. I'd listened to 'em talking and I'd pumped 'em gradual, but I couldn't git a definite thing--and what the help don't know aboutthe crooked places in their bosses a...in't generally worth knowin'. Ellen, the maid, ought to 'a' been my best card--her sittin' everynight at the door catchin' what comes out of the parlors. She couldn'ttell a thing. All she knew was that she heard a lot of talk in lowtones, and it was something about spirits and the devil, and then shecrossed herself. As help goes, they like Mrs. Markham, which is a goodsign. "Last Sunday, at supper, Ellen begins to complain of a pain in herhead. It seemed to me that I'd better take, just once, the chance ofbeing recognized by a sitter, an' 'tend door for the seance.
