Then the present aspect of the case might change, and an important step might be taken toward the solution of the mystery.,"It's right true ye spake," nodded Harry. "An' mebbe sooner than we think. An' ut's the young t'acher wid the blindness that gets it all, ye say?"，"Lunch time!" repeated David, warmly. "I'm aiming to survive till at least five minutes after!
