"You'll admit, sir, that my failure to obtain employment has not been due to neglect in searching for it." Lucy had related much, but she had much more to tell, and she narrated to her father fresh stories of her madness, and drew several graphic pictures of Mr Lawrence whilst he laboured under the various sensations her genius as an untutored artist excited. She spoke with contempt of Mr Eagle, whilst she had little or nothing to say about Mr Pledge. Her narratives were marked by a strong leaning in favour of Mr Lawrence. Her father could not mistake.

CHAPTER XIV THE LOUISA ANN "Direct, sir," answered Captain Weaver. Lucy looked at her father with an expression of surprise that vanished from her fine dramatic eyes in an instant. "Jest the same as ever. There, teacher, it fair laughed right out at us then.".
