When she recovered herself in the dim corridor, Elinor, calm and reassuring, was on one side of her, while her other arm was in the firm grip of the cheery Griffin. "Nothing more can be done to-night," said Jen, gloomily. "The men have returned dead tired, but they have seen nothing and no one." "Where is Dr. Etwald?" demanded the major, anxiously. "Whose death? Isabella's or Mrs. Dallas'?".
