What his real name was nobody knew, but he said that he was called Battersea, after the parish in which he had been reared as a foundling. "Of course not," replied Isabella, in the most truthful manner. "I did not leave the house, and Dido was with me all the time. I expect Maurice was waiting for me, and that David saw him. No doubt they quarreled, and then the death took place." "Well?" he said at last. "What's the verdict?".

"Voodoo! Voodoo!" she cried, hoarsely. Battersea was supposed to be a Christian; but the barbaric fluid in his veins inclined him to the terrible grotesqueness of African witchcraft, and Dido and her words stirred some dim instinct in his mind. The negress saw that accident had placed in her way a helpless creature who might be of use in her necromantic business; therefore, by hypnotizing him once or twice, she contrived to keep him within her power. All of which fantasy would have been denied by the average British newspaper reader, who can not imagine such things taking place in what he calls euphoniously a Christian land. But this happened, for all his denial. "I shall explain when Dido stops her howling," said Jen, quite undisturbed. "And yet he was a strong man," said Etwald, when he conveyed this intelligence. "He must have been taken by surprise.".
