He explained that he had been in the Barbadoes, and that he took a great interest in the subject of African fetish worship.

Since seeing mine he has been seized with a desire to possess it.",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.,What I am, is just a poor foolish woman, who has a lot more heart than she can manage with the amount of brains she got with it at birth. I'm not any star in a rose-coloured sky, and I don't want to inspire anybody; it's too heavy an undertaking. I want to be a healthy, happy woman and a wife to a man who can inspire himself and manage me. I want to marry a thin man, and when I get to be thirty I want my husband to want me to be as large as Aunt Bettie, but not let me. An inspiration couldn't be fat, and I'm always in danger from hot cakes and chicken gravy.,Then he laid aside his book to think, and through the smoke curling from his pipe he stared idly at the opposite wall.

Handling it carefully--for he dreaded the poison, although it was said to be dried up--he wondered if Dido could make use of it were it in her possession.,"Do as I tell you," said Jen, so fiercely that Jaggard did not dare to disobey, but ran off, leaving the major alone with his dead.，"Dead!" shrieked Mrs. Dallas, all her superstition roused by the word. "Come away from that man, Isabella."，"Was he a friend of yours, doctor?"，"Business connected with the devil-stick and Isabella.""I wonder who it could have been," they both murmured as they went upstairs to their rooms.

Mademoiselle makes us say so many fine sentences when we have our 'calling days' in the French class that I get awfully twisted and never know whether I'm masculine or feminine.","Major, major! Do not be too hard on me. I suffer--oh, how I suffer!",Judith's face had been undergoing swift changes during this short speech, but now it cleared and a beatific expression shone upon it.,"Do you not know what occurred during the time you were insensible?" he asked, gravely.,"It's all ship-shape now," whispered Patricia as they scrambled down from the stools whereon they had perched to accomplish their purpose. "Aren't we in luck? Not a soul even saw us come in.","Do you think he knows anything?","The name of the person who committed the murder.",Jen rose to leave the room, more wounded than he chose to confess.,"I don't know if you call it business," he said, after a pause. "I asked Mr. Alymer to call and see me, and sent the message by that tramp named Battersea.","Dido! Well, I admit that such a barbaric treasure would tempt her, the more particularly as she knows about such wizard instruments.
