It's not more than six miles." "Don't let's go there," said Barbara. "I hate them." "Is Raymond away?" asked Helen. "Yes; didn't you hear Queen Mab say he was going to spend his holidays in London? Uncle James is rather a pompous old fellow, but we shan't have to go there except for lunch; and father said we ought to call on them while we're here; besides, it'll be jolly on the river.
"Won't ask, shan't have," said Lady Elizabeth. "Will Sir Randal Bellamy be here to lunch?" asked the girl. "I hope so, my dear.

What a contrast the south will be though, eh, old man?" and, drawing the detective's arm through his, leaning heavily upon him meanwhile, McVay moved forward, talking volubly. Cecilia and Geoffrey hesitated a moment looking up at the house that had seen such momentous changes in their lives.
