about, or he wouldn't ask us to keep
idle down here"
HE has his own way of working,
Joe, and his maxim is, Never be in a
hurry but l am too restless to sit
still. Let us go round and see Brent's
cottage again"
Godfrey West was staying with Joe
Drawn at Stallfield, and, although each
was consumed with Impotence to be
doing something, they reluctantly
obeyed Mr.. Griffin's request to do moth
ing until he sent for them.
Mr.. Brent had been removed by Mr..
Dodson, and the cottage was now, to
all intents, empty. The news of the
assault upon Mr.. Brent, the robbery
Of the Empires Dream" and the dis
appearance of the old mans daughter
had brought the usual crowd OF sight
seers, but by this time curiosity had
apparently been satisfied. as the road
was practically deserted.
As the two, now firm friends. stood
at the cottage gate. Drawn suddenly
fixed his eyes upon n Of the upper
windows.
"Sure. an there's somewan-aw,

there's somewan in. Try the back. aw,

At the back of the cottage they
found a small window open, and signs
Of muddy feet on the sill.

what shall we do?"
Drawn answered the question by
putting his shoulder to the door and
forcing the lock.
Faith, an Is anywan up there?"
They waited for an instant. but all
was still.
Jaw. an the bonny lass won't be up
there. I'm thinkin', no. sure. You wait

went up to the bedrooms. and then the
silence was broken by a shrill cry.
