"I can't well get away before that, you know, as Wigley is a good way off. But I'll try all I know. And, after all," says Geoffrey, with a view to cheering her, "it isn't as bad as if I was ordered off somewhere for a week, is it?" "The will—but are you sure—sure?" says Lady Rodney, feebly.

"Come and sit by me. You can spare me a few minutes," she says, drawing her ample skirts to one side.

They are armed with guns, but wear no disguise, not even the usual band of black crape across the upper half of the face. "What are ye talkin' about? Get out, ye spalpeen," says the woman, with an outward show of anger, but a warning frown meant for the man alone. "Let her do as she likes. Is it spakin' of fear ye are to Dan Scully's daughter?".
