"Mah child, when'd Kurnel Jorth ever play for fun?" said Daggs, with a lazy laugh. "There's a stack of gold on the table. Reckon yo' uncle Jackson will win it. Colter's shore out of luck."

"They're sleeping," said I, "and little good to wake them, if Miss Ruth speaks true. Come on, lads the shore's our road and short's the time to get there." Peter Bligh reeled dizzily in his walk and began to talk incoherently a thing I had never heard him do before in all his life. "They're sleeping, aye, and what's the waking to be?
