advantage of it.

тАЬIf something comes up that looks good,тАЭ Renny said, тАЬbe sure and let me know about it.тАЭ

тАЬOf course,тАЭ Doc Savage assured him.

Doc Savage was a giant bronze man whose appearance was almost as astonishing as his reputation. His
bronze hair was only a little darker than his skin, and his eyes, one of his most spectacular features, were
like pools of flake gold always stirred by tiny winds. He was obviously a man of great physical strength.

They were known all over the worldтАФDoc Savage and his groupтАФfor their rather fantastic profession of
pursuing fantastic adventure, of righting wrongs and punishing evildoers who seemed to be outside the
reach of the law.

Renny rubbed his hands together.

тАЬFish this long.тАЭ He illustrated again, exaggerating. тАЬAnd Norman Monaghan's camp cookingтАФyum,
yum! Brother, I'm going to have me a couple of weeks of peace and plenty.тАЭ

The limousine, a sleek streamlined affair, rushed along in luxury and silence. It was a fall day, crisp and
bright.

Monk Mayfair and Ham Brooks got into a fuss. It began mildly over Monk's pet pig or Ham's pet
chimpanzee whichever had chewed up one of Ham's dress gloves. From a mild start, in a couple of
minutes, Monk and Ham were threatening to tear each other's heads off.

The row didn't mean anything except that Monk and Ham were feeling good.

The queer little brown imp of a man showed no interest in them, except once, when he glanced at
themтАФand Renny realized the little imp had one eye.

The little brown man was wearing a brown patch over his left eye.



AT the airport, Renny shook hands around, said good-bys, took some good-natured ribbing about the
microscopic size of the fish he'd probably catch, and prepared to board the plane.

тАЬYou say this Norman Monaghan is a good cook?тАЭ asked Monk.

тАЬSwell. A fine woods cook. It's his hobby. That, and fishing,тАЭ Renny said enthusiastically.

тАЬI hope he's got patience enough to put up with you for two weeks,тАЭ said Monk, chuckling.

тАЬMonaghan is a nice guy. I met him when I designed the building for the bank of which he's a vice
president. We've been fishing a couple of times together. He's great. I hope you can meet him sometime.тАЭ

тАЬSure. Get us a picture of the fish.тАЭ

Ham said, тАЬIf he does that, he'd better take along a camera with a magnifying lens.тАЭ
