The papers were full of it. Her aunt knew only that she had gone to the East Side, to search for Ada Taylor, and when she received an anonymous note asking her to meet the writer at Fourteenth Street and Broadway if she would have information of her niece, she suspected kidnapping and blackmail. "Fat" Taylor, Ada's brother, came to the house again on the evening of Margaret's disappearance, demanding news of his sister. Mrs. Knickerbocker questioned him sharply in regard to "Our Mutual Girl," but neither could help the other. Telling herself that it was a wise move to enlist Taylor in her service if possible, Mrs. Knickerbocker gave him money to finance a search for Margaret, and then further fortified her position by hiring detectives to watch her new confederate. Meanwhile a gang of thugs on the East Side, determining to profit by the announcements they had seen in the papers, had plotted to use Ada as a means of extorting blackmail. They forced her to take a note to Mrs. Knickerbocker's door, and when the butler attempted to question her, the gangsters fell upon him, and tearing the girl away, speeded off with her in an automobile. It happened at the time that Mrs. Knickerbocker was in consultation with the detectives in the library. Hearing the butler's cries, they rushed out and entering the touring car which the detectives had left just around the corner of the house, gave chase the length of Manhattan. At South Ferry the gangsters swarmed onto a boat that was just leaving the slip. Chartering a launch, Mrs. Knickerbocker and the detectives followed. But the thugs, holding up a roll of bills, bribed a tug to come alongside, and jumping aboard, made their escape. That same day, a society burglar, who went by the name of Raffles sent his butler from the richly appointed uptown apartment down to the gangsters' den with a message, "Lay off this job, boys, it's mine," he wrote. And with him in the game, together with the East Side crooks, things looked black indeed for "Our Mutual Girl" and her protégée. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
