"Good, Then between twelve and three the body must have been stolen. You are a light sleeper, I heard you say, major?" "Dido!" repeated Lady Meg, thoughtfully. "I have heard Mr. Alymer and Mr. Sarby talking about her. A negress, is she not?" "Can't she let the poor man rest in his grave?" said Jen, wrathfully.
