"The attackers are attacked," exclaimed Bevan, in surprise; "I wonder who by." He looked round for a reply, but only saw the crouching figure of Tolly beside him. "Where's Brixton?" he asked. "Bolted into the hut," answered the boy. "Betty," exclaimed Tom, springing into the little parlour or hall, where he found the poor girl on her knees, "you are safe now.
As a matter of fact, Seton Pasha, acting upon a suggestion of Margaret's had been to Brixton Prison to interview Juan Mareno who lay there under arrest.
The reason why I didn't make use of it sooner is that on the whole, I think it better to stick by the Redskins yet awhile first, because if Stalker should look for us, as he's sartin sure to do, we would not be strong enough to fight him in the open; and, secondly, because poor Tom Brixton needs rest, and he has more chance o' that in the circumstances, wi' the Redskins than he could have with us while being hunted by robbers; and, lastly, because Betty would come to grief if she fell into that villain Stalker's hands just now."
Apparently satisfied with his examination of things in the den, Craig now prepared to trace out the course of the telephone and light wires in the house. Brixton excused himself, asking us to join him in the library up-stairs after Craig had completed his investigation. Nothing was discovered by tracing the lines back, as best we could, from the den.
During dinner the girl manifested more than usual sympathy with Tom Brixton. She saw that he was almost worn out with fatigue, and listened with intense interest to her father's embellished narrative of the encounter with the "b'ar," which narrative Tom was forced to interrupt and correct several times, in the course of its delivery. But this sympathy did not throw her off her guard.

Of course, Betty and Tom Brixton were left altogether unbound. "I feel uncommon lopsided goin' about in this one-armed fashion," remarked Paul, as he turned the stick on which his supper was roasting.

They were born British, hailing from Brixton or other suburban health resorts, and now they knew he was a "lord" the nickname of "Rags," which had sickened them at first, seemed interesting and intimate as a domestic anecdote about royalty. Rags consented to buy the dress for his sister if it fitted and didn't cost a million pounds.
There are half a dozen in the East End; there are more in Kensington, and out Brixton way. There's one in Notting Hill, and Bayswater, and Fulham aye, there a' ower the shop. And it's an interesting thing, the way ye come to learn the sort o' thing each audience likes. I never grow tired of London music-hall audiences.
