About this book
The Bradys and the Girl Smuggler, subtitled Or, Working for the Custom House, is by Francis Worcester Doughty. Old King Brady says Madam, here is a warrant for the arrest of your daughter. The charge is smuggling. The contents list names, among others, chapters called The Bradys as Custom House Detectives, Nine Smugglers, Caught in an Elevator and The Clew in the Basin. Harry Brady, the boy, says that Mr. Gibson has some doubts about our ability to work for the Custom House. The text has a promise to meet the officers and the Collector on board the steamer Campania, of the Cunard line, in one hour.
An importer says Paul La Croix, a French-Canadian, was just in here with his daughter, trying to sell us some smuggled diamonds. The Frenchman laughed sardonically at the officers and said: Ah, Messieurs, zis ees ze time I fool you!
