While he was still considering the affair in a confused manner Jaggard reappeared with the men from "Ashantee" carrying a stretcher.

At this moment he broke off his speech with an ejaculation of surprise, for, true to the prognostication of Isabella--in answer to the expectant attitude of the negress--Dr. Etwald turned in at the gate. "Yes. Your messenger, Battersea, was wandering about your grounds on that night." "The Voodoo stone," echoed Jen, much puzzled. "And what may that be?" "Find out in the morning how she feels about it," said Elinor, switching off the light. "I'm pretty sure she'll want to go.".
