"Exactly. Isabella Dallas, and none other, killed your boy Maurice." "However, Mr. Alymer did not take my warning and leave off courting Miss Dallas. On the contrary, he announced his engagement, and carried off the young lady in triumph. As you may guess, from what I have said before, I doomed him from that hour. I made Dido hypnotize Mrs. Dallas in order to have the devil-stick stolen. If you remember, major, I offered to buy it, but as you refused, I had to have it stolen. In order to compromise the mother, I arranged that she should steal it. She did, and without having the slightest notion that she was committing the crime. When Dido obtained the devil-stick she filled it with the poison. Then she--by my directions--hypnotized Miss Dallas, put the devil-stick into her hand, and sent her forth to kill Mr. Alymer. But I should not say kill--as you know the devil-stick cannot kill--let us say, to cast Mr. Alymer into a trance. By this ingenious plot--you must admit, major, that it is ingenious--I got rid of the lover, and obtained a hold over mother and daughter. "I have! How dare you say such a thing? Lady Meg knew that I was in love with Isabella.".

"Very good, major; I understand why I am a traitor. But a coward?" "And ask Mrs. Dallas and her daughter to be present?" "Yis." "Don't I always study like this?" replied Judith without looking up. "Go ahead as long as you like—only don't talk. I want to study.".
