A policeman on the beat is moving up the avenue impressivly.
Suddenly, he notices a man in a dark doorway with a unlit cigar. The Man says.
It is Ok Officer. I am Just waiting for a friend. It is an appointment made 20 years ago. I can tell you about it.
20 Minutes Later...
Is that you Jimmy Wells?
Is that you Bob?
When they come in the light of the shop..
You are not Jimmy Wells! 20 years is a long time, but not long enough to change a man's nose from a roman's to a pugs!
The man tells the Officer about his friend, Jimmy Wells, and how they had a close relationship. The policeman gets to know that the man did well out in the West. It starts raining. He leaves the man alone around 10:00pm.
It sometimes changes a good man into a bad one. Going quietly to the police station, aren't you. Good. But first, Her its a note I was asked to give you. Read it over here.
The friends become delighted to meet each other. Jimmy grasps both of Bob's hand with his own. They talk about their career will walking to a shop.
The man's hand was steady while reading it , but it trembled a little towards the end.
Bob: I was there at the appointed place on time. When you lit your cigar, I saw that it was the face of the man wanted in Chicago. Somehow I couldn't do it myself , SO I went around and got a plain clothed man to do the job.- Jimmy
