'About a bottle, sir, answered Stopchase, rather indefinitely; but the conclusion drawn was, that she had been taken very soon after the house was quiet. The fact was, that since the return of their soldiers, poor watch had been kept by the people of Redware.
Courtney was ashamed of his churlishness toward this good-natured little man. "Say no more, Charlie. I'll break my rule this once if it will make you feel any better. One little drink, that's all, in spite of the doctor. He's a long way off, and I daresay he'll never know the difference. Lead the way, old chap. Anything to cheer up a disconsolate comrade."
