"Don't I tell you there wasn't," said Callaghan; "nor there couldn't have been, for Simpkins wasn't near the place since the afternoon you was in it yourself." "What!
I will ask Frederika." "No! no!" said Rudolph; "not Frederika; it would not be to her interest to tell you the truth. But is there any one of the servants in whom you have more confidence than all the others?" "Yes," she said, "there is Mary Callaghan, an honest girl, if there is one anywhere.
