certainly have left an address behind him, adding, "Well, if he didn't get that letter he probably didn't get our telegram, either!"
"Why, that's so," said Polly. "But wouldn't they send that back, too, if it wasn't delivered?"
"I reckon so. I'll ask about it to-morrow at the office. Maybe you should have put the street and number on your letter, Miss Comfort."
"Why, I never knew it. That's the address my sister sent me. I supposed it was all that was necessary."
"It ought to be enough," said Bob. "How big's this Sioux City place, anyway? Seems to me they ought to have been able to find the Goupil Machinery Company, even if they didn't have the street address."
"Well," said Miss Comfort, "I'm relieved to get it back. I thought it was strange that Mr. Goupil didn't take any notice of it. Now I know it was because he never received it. You see."
"Tell you what we might do," offered Laurie. "We might find out Mr. Goupil's address from the lawyers who wrote you about it and then you could write to him again, ma'am."
