Of course he knew that Miss Lucy Acton[Pg 224] had been missing since the morning, but that was all he did know.,"An' the biggest birds, an' as full o' corn as iver ye see, the rogues!",Ferdinand awaited the hour appointed by the marquis in impatient curiosity. The solemn air which the marquis assumed when he commanded him to attend, had deeply impressed his mind. As the time drew nigh, expectation increased, and every moment seemed to linger into hours.
