"Of course it was quite true," said Poppy, healthfully attacking her plate; "I did have to come to you." "It was rather an odd way of coming," said Fraser; "my legs ache now." The girl laughed softly, and continued to laugh. Then her eyes moistened, and her face became troubled.

The court brought them to a churchyard; a paved square court, with a raised bank of earth about breast high, in the middle, enclosed by iron rails.
