Pease, as he squeezed his burly form through the crowded door-way. "You're wanted, sir. Loot'nant Hayne's shot; an' Captain Rayner he's hurt too, sir." Straight as an arrow Mr. Blake had sped across the parade, darted through the east gate, and, turning, had arrived breathless at the wooden porch of Hayne's quarters.

No power of earth or " Belturbet saw, with bulging eyes, a sudden void where a moment earlier had been a Cabinet Minister; a void emphasized rather than relieved by the presence of a puffed-out bewildered-looking sparrow, which hopped about for a moment in a dazed fashion and then fell to a violent cheeping and scolding.
Queen Bee stood there pale, still, and bewildered-looking.
