Es mag Zufall sein, daß diese Herren oft das Mißgeschick hatten, wenig später wegen Heiratsschwindel, Erpressung oder versuchter Kuppelei vor den Kadi zitiert zu werden, aber Tatsache ist, daß Miss Climpsons Büro sich einer eigenen direkten Telefonleitung zu Scotland Yard rühmen konnte, und daß ihre Damen selten so schutzlos waren, wie sie erschienen.
It may have been coincidence that these gentlemen so very often had the misfortune to appear shortly afterwards before the magistrate on charges of fraud, blackmail or attempted procuration, but it is a fact that Miss Climpson’s office boasted a private telephone line to Scotland Yard, and that few of her ladies were quite so unprotected as they appeared.
