Neither Bent nor Brereton nor Tallington had any notion of what line was going to be taken by Cotherstone and his advisers, but Tallington and Brereton exchanged glances when Cotherstone, in charge of two warders from Norcaster, was brought in, and when the Norcaster solicitor and the Norcaster barrister whom he had retained, shortly afterwards presented themselves.
And I say, Brereton, I've got to do all I can for Cotherstone, you know. What about his defence?" "I should imagine that Cotherstone is already arranging his defence himself," said Brereton. "He struck me during that talk this morning at Tailington's as being very well able to take care of himself, Bent, and I think you'll find when you visit him that he's already fixed things.
"That is, afraid of nothing but my father's obstinacy! I know him. And I know that if he's said he won't tell anything about his whereabouts last night, he won't! And if you want to help him as you seem to do you must recognize that." "Wouldn't he tell you?" suggested Brereton. The girl shook her head.
He's the chap you want!" Brereton went silently away, meditating on the old woman's last words. "But where are we to find him?" he suddenly exclaimed. "Who is he?" "I don't think that puzzles me," remarked Avice. "He's the man who sent the nine hundred pounds." Brereton smote his stick on the heather at their feet. "By George! I never thought of that!" he exclaimed. "I shouldn't wonder!

Janice, conscious at the moment of but one partisan, turned to the baron. "Oh, please," she besought, "may n't I say just one word to Colonel Brereton just to tell him that I didn't "
"If you want to get to Brunswick you shall have a lift," offered the aide. "We'll drive you there, and I'll see to it that you have a horse to bring you back." "Ay.

They were staying for the marriage at Brereton Hall in Cheshire, and their banns were published in the parish church; but on the very morning appointed for the marriage, the clergyman received a letter which roused so many scruples in his mind as to make Edgeworth think it cruel to press him to perform the ceremony. The Rector of St.
"Well, after you left me, I just made an inquiry absolutely secret, you know myself. I went to Rellit, the ironmonger I knew that if such things had ever come into the town, it 'ud be through him, for he's the only man that's at all up-to-date. And I heard more than I expected to hear!" "What?" asked Brereton. "I think there may be something in what you said," answered the superintendent.
Brereton settled down to a careful reading of the report. There was really nothing very remarkable about it nothing exciting nor sensational. It was indeed no more than a humdrum narrative of a vulgar crime. But it was necessary that he should know all about it, and be able to summarize it, and so he read it over with unusual care. It was a very plain story there were no complications.
Brereton, who was riding within hearing, called something to a bugler; and the man, halting in the race, put his trumpet to his lips and blew a fanfare. "There are others can sound the 'Stole Away, your Excellency," shouted Jack, triumphantly. "That insult is paid in kind."
