Have you forgotten that, in refusing the new bond for the old bond's sake, the child may be simply wronging the parents, depriving them of another affection, another support, which ought to have been theirs? His tone was harsh, almost violent. It seemed to him that she grew suddenly white, and he grasped her more firmly still.
Negligently, Merely returned the salute, then picked up Bond's report. "I have gone through this, Bond," he announced. "Very interesting. And you thought it too unimportant to report on before?"

Very like he watched the whole thing and was hid at my elbow somewhere when I found Bond; and then, after I'd gone, he got Bond's revolver and took it away so as I should be catched in a lie and prove the only one that was armed. And more than that: he may have lent Bond the revolver himself."

Patty at first begged to stay at home and not go to Mrs. Bond's again; but when Nanny reminded her that she had better go to take care of the younger ones, she submitted at once, and they were all packed in the pony-carriage once more.
