Haines now fell in love with a girl at Bruntisland, aged nineteen, named Anne Seaton, and told her a number of things, which she promised to repeat to Mackenzie, but disappointed him, though she had blabbed to others. It came to be reported that Captain Green had pirated the 'Speedy Return, and murdered Captain Drummond and his crew. The Privy Council, in January 1705, took the matter up.

But we had reckoned without our host, and did not take into consideration a possible treachery. The barber, a miserable wretch, whom we thought to be a true red-feather man, and who had been more than liberally paid for extracting the poultry-dealer's front teeth, and trimming his hair and beard into the semblance of those of the dead potter, went and blabbed of his work.

He had blabbed to many witnesses of a precious something hidden aboard the 'Worcester; to Anne he said that he had now thrown it overboard. We shall see later what this object was. Anne was a reluctant witness. Glen, a goldsmith, had seen a seal of the Scots East India Company in the hands of Madder, the inference being that it was taken from the 'Speedy Return.

"Well, sir," replied the sailor, "what can I say? I thought that Claudine had wearied out the people from whom she drew money, like water from a well; or else getting drunk one day, she had blabbed too freely."

It seemed that the deacon had blabbed, as they used to say, regarding his own brave part in the subsequent proceedings. My fine clothes and the story of how I had come by them taxed my ingenuity somewhat, although not improperly. I had to be careful not to let them know that I had been ashamed of the home-made suit. They, somehow, felt the truth about it and a little silence followed the story.

She told me the captain said he would kill me if I blabbed, and she would kill Kate. I didn't dare, until they told me my discharge had come; and then I was glad when the lieutenant and the major caught me in town. When they promised to take care of little Kate I didn't care what happened to me. The money Mrs.

Ain't you heard about the fortune tellin' and how 'twas foretold she'd marry a Butler? "I'd heard, but I didn't s'pose he had. However, it seemed that Effie hadn't been able to keep it to herself no longer. Soon as she'd hooked her man she'd blabbed the whole thing. The fo'mast hands wa'n't talkin' of nothin' else, so this feller said.

Newmark laughed in amusement. "Why shouldn't I? Of course Heinzman blabbed. You couldn't have got it all anywhere else." Orde arose to his feet, and half sat again on the arm of his chair. "Now I'll tell you what we will do in this matter," said he crisply. But Newmark unexpectedly took the aggressive. "We'll follow," said he, "the original programme, as laid down by myself.

Mole blabbed to my young lady, and so she took fright, and insisted on coming to town. And Lady Castleton, who is ill herself in bed, could not keep her, I suppose, especially as Henry said, though he ought to have known better, 'that she would be in time to arrive before my lady set off. Poor Miss Trevanion was so disappointed when she found her mamma gone.

We might then talk over the matter without the danger of it being blabbed among the whole body of prisoners. His grim face relaxed into a smile at the serious manner in which we took our diversion, and he readily granted the permission we desired. By this change we got rid of Vetch, who was glad enough to leave us, I doubt not.
