"Get hold of him, Missus Keeler an' wring his black neck.","Bless me!" says Geoffrey; "what an appalling thought! it makes me feel faint."，This started a new train of thought. Why had Jerry been foolish enough to show himself in the Quarter-house? Nothing could be gained by it. Could it be that he had come to warn Bob of the impending danger to the dam and consequently to himself? Perhaps the memory of the dangers they had shared and overcome in the Labyrinth had stirred him to a moment of remorse and a desire to see his chum safe.
