Suddenly, all heads were raised and a sigh of satisfaction escaped Mrs. Wopp’s lips. “Run, Billy! You left the door open—she’ll get the dinner!” Mrs. Bennett cautioned, hurrying out herself to reckon the loss. Mrs. Wopp repeated the words, slowly rolling them on her tongue as though to extract every ounce possible of scriptural nutriment, “So they took up Joner and carst him forth inter the sea.” ‘—a lodge of ample size,’.
