No: Larry chose to go on to Clonbrony with the horses, that he might get the chaise mended betimes for his honour. The table was set; clean trenchers, hot potatoes, milk, eggs, bacon, and "kindly welcome to all."

"Miss Hendy?" enquired the spinster in breathless anticipation. "Jist so," responded the other "there can't be no mystery no longer, and they'll be off for France in a few days."
