Get me down to Farnton before evening, and you'll have done a good piece of work for the country. 'Right-o! Let's have a tub and a bit of breakfast, and then I'm your man. I'll tell them to get the bus ready. In Archie's bedroom I washed and shaved and borrowed a green tweed cap and a brand-new Aquascutum.
As I looked at him, I thought that he made a perfect picture of the citizen turned countryman, going back of an evening to his innocent home. Everything was right his neat tweeds, his light spats, his spotted neckcloth, and his Aquascutum. Not that I dared look at him much. What I had learned made me eager to search his face, but I did not dare show any increased interest.
I thanked Heaven I had got rid of the aquascutum, for the August afternoon was warm and my pace was not leisurely. When I was in secluded ground I ran, and when anyone was in sight I walked smartly. As I went I reflected that Bradfield would see the end of my adventures. The police knew that I was there and would watch the stations and hunt me down if I lingered in the place.
But my enemies were bound to have cars, so I had better get off the road as soon as possible. I coasted down a long hill to a bridge which spanned a small discoloured stream that flowed in a wooded glen. There was nobody for the moment on the hill behind me, so I slipped into the covert, shoved the bicycle under the bridge, and hid Archie's aquascutum in a bramble thicket.
