Misdaad
There are crooks, and other crooks—ranging from the lowly dip who lifts the contents of milady’s shopping bag to the international swindlers who count their booty in millions. Harvey ranked somewhere between the two extremities. True, a certain dexterity with a pack of cards played a share in compiling his profits aboard the Trans-Atlantic liners, but he was far from being in a class with such men as Remsen, who swindled the Prince of Albania out of a quarter million francs in a single evening. While be annually brought his share of trinkets into the country, Harvey would never be thought of in the same breath with “Diamond John” Munyan, cleverest of the jewel smugglers.
