Quotation from: The Secret Agent

Written by: Joseph Conrad


"Look here! Do you know whether your--whether he kept his account at the
bank in his own name or in some other name."


Mrs Verloc turned upon him her masked face and the big white gleam of her

"Other name?" she said thoughtfully.


"Be exact in what you say," Ossipon lectured in the swift motion of the
hansom. "It's extremely important. I will explain to you. The bank has
the numbers of these notes. If they were paid to him in his own name,
then when his--his death becomes known, the notes may serve to track us
since we have no other money. You have no other money on you?"
