LaRose had crawled to shore and sat dripping and sniffling on the bank. "I'd call it bein' kind to dumb animals," spoke up Wilson, his eyes meeting the angry ones of his wife.

She spoke again to the phantom, but this[Pg 324] time in such a mere muttering of words that the listener caught nothing of her meaning, and then sank her figure in a profoundly respectful curtsy whilst she seemed to kiss a hand extended to her. The breakfast bell at this moment summoned them from the lawn. At table Captain Acton said that he had asked Mr Lawrence to meet him at his office down on the quay at half-past ten. This office was in a little house a few minutes' walk from the warehouses.
