Kellerman did not seem elated . `` I do n't mind listening to your story , '' said he , `` on one condition . '' `` What 's that ? '' `` That you will not be offended if I switch you off if the thing palls and hand you your hat , for I must tell you that though I came down here to get sleep , I do most of my sleeping between two in the morning and noon . I work at night and I had intended working to-night . '' `` Oh , you can switch me off when you like , '' said Jones . Supper being finished , Kellerman fastened the window , and , carrying the lamp , led the way to a comfortably furnished study .
