Over toward Summit I expected to see the sturdy yeomanry of the village armed with scythes and pitchforks beating the country-side for the dastardly kidnappers.

Edward Blancove credit for not meaning to be active in a dastardly assault. "But why was he in consultation with my enemy? And he let my enemy by the way, Percy, you dislike that sort of talk of 'my enemy, I know.
