Book excerpt: Excerpt from He Conquered the Kaiser It was, moreover, his knowledge Of the motives of men and of monarchs that left him quite undismayed when the launch with its dead had rushed past him up-stream. He saw at once that the man who handled the tiller was an emissary of the Prince of Sylvania, and that he would not dare to disclose his plight to the police. He knew very well that it would be better for him to return and ask the aid of the man whose life he had sought than to have any dealings with the slow and exacting Officials of Scotland Yard. It was this that made Mr Jones SO confident when he said to Strong: He will come back. The accident of Strong's introduction to the incident was, of course, annoying; but Mr Jones felt quite sure of his silence, and saw no need for disclosing the cherished secret of his identity. Here, however, he made a miscalculation, for Mr Montgomery Jones' secret was quite well known to Strong. It was this knowledge, indeed, which to some extent had made the flirtation with Miss Diana Montgomery Jones so inexpressibly sweet. It is not every day that one can dally with a princess in disguise. For this strange young man possessed a certain element of romance, which, if it is present in men of action, produces great results. And romance is after all only imagination, which John Oliver Hobbes said she had found more keenly developed in men of affairs than in poets. And Strong, though at that time no one ever dreamed it, was essentially a man of affairs. He was for the time a dreamer-a lazy troubadour waiting to be stung into action by necessity; and when the sting that produces action comes to the man of imagination the world is apt to know of it.
