His head was swathed in bandages, and the housemaid who watched beside him had frequently to replace the clothes he tossed off in his violent movements. This nurse was a sickly, dark-eyed creature, who was strongly attached to Jaggard; and it was her love for him that made her proffer her services to look after him, and that chained her to his bedside. She reported to her master that Dr. Etwald had been in that morning, and was coming again in the afternoon, but that there was nothing to be done until the delirium had expended itself.,"Not a bit," replied Cold Maker. "We are very comfortable.",“Have you been to the show this week, Miss Gordon?” He turned from the fire and stood with his back to the cheerful blaze.,"There they be now," she said grimly. "The two worst boys in Scotia, Mrs. Wilson."，Judith caught Elinor's hand, and pressed close, silently adoring.，CHAPTER VII，Bob hustled off on his errand and found the place the Chief had designated. A few blows with a stone and he had loosened the gate sufficiently to let a big stream of water flow out.“Mr. Whitney? Oh, you mean ‘Whiskers,’ who put the engineering bug into Bob’s head, last year. We found him up the river at the cave. Would you like to go up there?”

"Come," she said softly, "we must be getting back.",As soon as he had gone they began to talk about this strange person. They were afraid of him and did not know what to do.
