"We have made a tolerable haul this time, twenty prisoners in all among them the priest of the band.
"See here, Caro," he said, "maybe I do know something or I can guess. Now, whatever happens, you've got to be a sensible girl. Certain things have to be dealt with in a practical way, and we're practical people.
