"I'll take the one just ahead there. It hasn't any card on the door and all the others have."Billy threw back his head and laughed, the first hearty laugh he had known for days. Scroggie, in spite of the pain his swollen lips caused him, laughed too.

"I didn't make up the mare, miss, before comin' out wid ye," he says, mildly, telling this lie without a blush.,Evidently there was an understanding between these two strange creatures, and thereby an occult connection with the ideas and doings of Dr. Etwald.
