Box 13 with the style of Paramount Pictures Alan land as Dan holiday William William We're ready to leave at a moment's notice aren't we yes, sir very well, please put this in the mail for me Very well, oh you'd better take it ashore and post it there And rather exist to see who this box 13 is

The letter I received was short and to the point Enclosed with it was a plane ticket and another ticket. First class on the biggest luxury liner of float. And a letter read, B at the end of Pier 9, tomorrow night at eight. Please be prompt.

That was all. A command. Not a request. When I received it, I wondered who'd written it. Well, I found out. No, back to Box 13 and Dan Holiday's newest adventure, one of these four. But Mr. Holiday, do you want to go on another trip?

Oh, not if I can help it, Susie. But someone paid for these tickets. First class on the biggest liner of float. And no name or ad trip. You can't send it back. But I can bring it back.

You mean you're going to Pier 9 tonight? Well, I get says here, Susie. I'm going to Pier 9 tonight. I got to Pier 9, promptly at 8 o'clock. There was no liner there. There was nothing but a cold fog that penetrated to my skin and made me shiver in the dim, hazy light from my half-hearted street lamp, a block away.

I looked at my watch. It was exactly 8. Are you Mr. Holiday? Yes, I'm Dan Holiday. Do you have the letter that's sent to you? Huh? Who are you? My name is William, sir. I'm Stuart.
