"Because they are on the east side." "How can ye tell that? They have lost their way." "I am afraid so," groaned Raby. "Then why do you send all the men as if they hadn't lost their way? East side of Cairnhope! why that is where they ought to be, but it is not where they are, man." "You are a good girl, and I'm a fool," cried Raby.
For I have SEEN her; and she is a sweet lady; and she told me I had a Cairnhope face, and kissed me for it." Upon this from Jael, the general conviction rose into a hum that buzzed round the room. Mr. Raby was struck with amazement. At last he turned slowly upon Henry, and said, with stiff politeness, "Is your name Little, sir?" "Little is my name, and I'm proud of it."

George obeyed and put out his hands, with the fingers upward, Jael did the same, with the fingers downward: they took hands, and, putting their stalwart arms under Coventry, told him to fling an arm round each of their necks: he did so, and up he went; he was no more than a feather to this pair, the strongest man and woman in Cairnhope.
