"That it is," Mike replied grimly, "ever since I arrested the judge on his
way to the masquerade ball."
"You mean you pinched his honor?" asked Pat.
"How was I to know that his convict suit was only a costume?" demanded Mike.
"Well," mused Pat, "there's a lesson in this somewhere."
"That there is," replied Mike. "It's never wise to book a judge by his
cover."
