Whoso Findeth A Wife William Le Queux

"Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the Lord."-Proverbs xviii, 22. "Have those urgent dispatches come in from Berlin, Deedes?"

Every moment's delay means greater risk," and the Earl of Warnham, Her Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, strode up and down his private room, with his hat still on, impatiently snapping his bony fingers in agitation quite unusual to him.
