Miss smithers. Out, as usual. For seven days I've been trying to catch him, always with the same result. Last night I waited two hours on the stairs, hoping to waylay him and present my bill, but he must have known I was there. How in the world he manages to get in and out without me seeing him is a caution. He's got it down to a science. (sees note tacked on the edge of the table, tears it 017: and reads) Have gone to the station to, meet my fiancee. Don't disturb my things. Well, the nerve of these artists. If he'd give me my room rent' instead of orders, it would be more to the point.
