Stand by him, Captain Selwyn; because Austin does not know how to manage him really he doesn't. . . . There has been another unpleasant scene between them; Gerald told me." "Did he tell you why, Eileen?" "Yes. He told me that he had played cards for money, and he was in debt. I know that sounds almost disgraceful; but is not his need of help all the greater?"

But come, Liftenant Grantham, we have no time to lose. The day will soon break, and I expect you must be a considerable way from Frankfort before sunrise." I from Frankfort before sunrise!" exclaimed Gerald, in perfect astonishment.

"Very true but not an unfair one," said Gerald, laughing, but still keeping his pistol pointed at the officer, who now caught sight of Norah, also with a pistol in her hand, standing a little behind her brother.

Gerald had some command, by mere force of personality, not because of any granted position.

The notes of a bugle, clear and silvery in the still air, floated across the meadow at that moment, and Gerald Ainley laughed. "The breakfast bell! We must hurry, Miss Yardely.

Damn it all, here, HERE Boats were hurrying from all directions to the scene, coloured lanterns could be seen waving close to the surface of the lake, reflections swaying after them in uneven haste.
