Billy looked the Doctor over and wondered. He was not subtle enough to suspect the Doctor’s purpose. “Golly!

But I’m glad of the chance for myself.” He surely did look better when the two came out and crossed to the big dining-room; though there was a tell-tale streak around his neck, and his crown lock stood stiff and divided.
