"Like the fool she is," said the doctor, putting on his hat. "Well, I am going. Will you see me to-morrow morning?" "No, no!" said Jen, hastily. "Do not bring any one here as yet, David. We must think of this poor girl. Take her home at once. When you are both out of the house I shall give the alarm.

"Because it is necessary that I should do so, major. It is my intention to aid you in your search for the assassin of Maurice.
