Never before had Matthew permitted a woman to pay for a cab in which he had ridden; but there was no arguing with Constance. Constance was dangerous. Amy Bates, still inhabiting the cave, had seen the cab-wheels through the grating of her window and had panted up the kitchen stairs to open the door ere Constance had climbed the steps. Amy, decidedly over forty, was a woman of authority.
Then there was a sound of cab-wheels on the other side of the garden-wall, and presently Horace heard the housekeeper complimenting Sidney on his good looks, and Sidney asking the housekeeper to lend him three shillings to pay the cabman. The golden youth had returned without the slightest warning from his cruise.
'I'll give you a final piece of advice too. Give up philandering and get married! With that he opened the door and went out, and a few seconds later Fielding heard the sound of his cab-wheels rattle on the pavement. Drake, on reaching Charing Cross, found that he had more time to spare than he had reckoned.
Now as Grace's hour approached she was not so sure. "Well, I'm not afraid," she reassured herself with her favourite defiance. "She can't eat me. And it's my house." Paul had not noticed the alterations. He was always blind to his surroundings unless they were what he called "queer." There was the rattle of the cab-wheels on the drive and a moment later Grace was in the hall.
One night a middle-aged man, who had lived all his life far from the noise of cab-wheels, a young girl, a relation of his, who was reported to be enough of a seer to catch a glimpse of unaccountable lights moving over the fields among the cattle, and myself, were walking along a far western sandy shore.
