"Thank you, Lady Meg," said Jen, cordially. "I congratulate you on your presence of mind, and on your courage." "I can answer that," broke in Arkel, amazed at the self-possession of the man. "I have here a warrant to arrest you for stealing the body of Maurice Alymer." "Yes, he's a wonder," he said, cracking nuts studiously. "I hope he's as good on breakfasts as he used to be.".

Not a word was spoken till the door opened again, and Griffin with Doris Leighton and Miss Green came quickly in. One after another, the girls mounted the stand beside Elinor, and read the little verses, while the assembly listened, and even the model, decorously cloaked, came from her little room, and with her crocheting in hand sat smiling at the nonsense.

I believe I'll stay home today and take a real holiday." Evidently it was impossible to extract information from so impenetrable a man.
