How was it with the strongholds of aristocratical influence, Newark, and Stamford, and Hertford, and St Alban's?

Hoopdriver, quite modestly, flicking off a particle of cigarette ash that had settled on his knee. On Monday morning the two fugitives found themselves breakfasting at the Golden Pheasant in Blandford. They were in the course of an elaborate doubling movement through Dorsetshire towards Ringwood, where Jessie anticipated an answer from her schoolmistress friend.

She was a native of Dorsetshire too, I remember; and the foreign Italian accent you mention, is rarely, I fancy, picked up in that charming county. Some flashy opera-dancer, depend upon it, whom he has contracted a passing fancy for: a slippery gentleman certainly; but, with a little caution, we shall not fail to trip his heels up, clever as he may be."

He then agreed with one Hobby to make a trip to the continent, before returning to England.
