"Besides, Harry, I've got a charm that'll keep ol' Scroggie's ghost away," he added, eagerly.,All went well for some blocks. There was a flattering audience at each front door; a few honored the pageant by following. These were mostly mothers of the younger children, who knew the possibilities of such an aggregation of animals and boys.,"I think that Mr. Johnston went a little too far there," Wilson ventured.,"No, we'll drive her home now. I guess I know what's best. Get on t'other side of her. Now then, don't let her turn back!"，The story which the marquis formerly related to his son, concerning the southern buildings, it was now evident was fabricated for the purpose of concealing the imprisonment of the marchioness. In the choice of his subject, he certainly discovered some art; for the circumstance related was calculated, by impressing terror, to prevent farther enquiry into the recesses of these buildings. It served, also, to explain, by supernatural evidence, the cause of those sounds, and of that appearance which had been there observed, but which were, in reality, occasioned only by the marquis.，"Oh, depend upon it. This is a great offer. He is extremely obliging."，The girls swept a puzzled glance around the room, but could discern no familiar face among the gay groups at the many little tables.

Having severely reprehended them for the idle apprehension they encouraged, he told them that, to prove the fallacy of their surmises, he would lead them over that part of the castle which was the subject of their fears, and ordered them to attend him at the return of night in the north hall. Emilia and Madame de Menon, surprised at this procedure, awaited the issue in silent expectation.,"Let me conduct you into the cabin, madam," said the Admiral.,Here David, who had been fidgeting with his cigar, broke in impatiently.,"Gosh! ain't he a terror?"

The table was dismantled, toys, tools, and dishes put away, and the feast had sped into the past.,"No, I am not. Anything but that; and to be rude"—slowly—"answers no purpose. But I have some common sense, I hope.",“Guess I’m too far,” he thought. “Out of range!” But he guessed wrong, for a moment later his pony stumbled and fell. He rolled clear and staggered to his feet and started to run on. But a moment later he was jerked to earth. One of the men had roped him.,"What are you going to do?" asked Stanhope.,"What sort of a fellow was this who stopped Miss Acton?" enquired the Admiral. "Was he a pauper?
