"I discovered that Mrs. Dallas was the richest woman in the West Indies, that she had one fair and marriageable daughter, and that mother and daughter were under the influence of a negress called Dido, who was a profound believer in the cult of Obi.

So thither I went in order to prosecute my suit, and obtain a rich wife in the person of Miss Isabella Dallas.

"I don't believe it." Battersea himself knew nothing of its esoteric meaning, but to the negress the mention of the emblem conveyed a distinct understanding.
