"But fifty sticks, Maurice! It's almost more'n she'll need, don't you think?",Like a flash, John had slid down from the fence and rushed after Tellef; and then came the fight.,"She's all right," repeated Judith, with an apprehensive glance at Patricia, who, however, was entirely oblivious, her attention now being wholly concentrated on her breakfast and Bartine's Tours.，"Poor thing, she's done it at last!" cried Patricia compassionately.

Dido was occupied in questioning Battersea about the devil-stick on the verandah.
