He drops his eyes, and the low, sneering laugh she has learned to know and to hate so much comes again to his lips. "Jolly old bore!" says Captain Rodney, though not unkindly. Mrs. Rodney, however, has been foraging on her own account during this brief interlude, and now brings triumphantly to light a little basin filled with early snowdrops. "I am sure I could," says Nolly, bestowing upon her a grateful glance, after which he starts upon his errand with suspicious alacrity..
