"Is that you， Jimmy Wells？" cried Bob．
The new man took Bob's hands in his． "It's Bob! It surely is． I was certain I would find you here if you were still alive． Twenty years is a long time． The old restaurant is gone， Bob． I wish it were here， so that we could have another dinner in it． Has the West been good to you？"

"Are you doing well in New York， Jimmy？"
"Well enough． I work for the city． Come on， Bob． We'll go to a place I know， and have a good long talk about old times．"
The two men started along the street， arm in arm． Bob， the man from the West， was beginning to tell the story of his life． The other， with his coat up to his ears， listened with interest．
At the corner stood a shop bright with electric lights． When they came near， each turned to look at the other's face．
The man from the West stopped suddenly and pulled his arm away． "You're not Jimmy Wells，" he said． "Twenty years is a long time， but not long enough to change the shape of a man's nose．"
"It sometimes changes a good man into a bad one，" said the tall man． "You've been under arrest for ten minutes， Bob． Chicago policemen thought you might be coming to New York． They told us to watch for you． Are you coming with me quietly？ That's wise． But first here is something I was asked to give you． You may read it here at the window． It's from a policeman named Wells．"
