Maurice squirmed in torture. Already the burning wild turnip was getting in its work. His throat felt as though it were filled with porcupine quills.

Among the prisoners charged with various[Pg 118] misdemeanours was this man, who had no other name than Paul.

He was able to tell the doctor that much afore he caved under." "It is," said Caleb shortly, "and my eyes are gettin' sharper every day, Billy." Various sensations were depicted in Mr Eagle's face as he listened. First he looked scared, then fierce by mere force of frown and enlargement of eyes, then sceptical with his sour, sneering mouth, then obstinate, sullen, mulish.
