"I certainly had an idea," Furley confessed, "of an asylum for incapable younger sons." "I call a truce," Julian proposed. "It isn't polite to spar before Miss Abbeway." "To me," Mr. Stenson declared, "this is a veritable temple of peace. I arrived here literally on all fours. Miss Abbeway has proved to me quite conclusively that as a democratic leader I have missed my vocation."
Mary Fletcher performed the last bit of earthly service she might do in the name of her beloved; she wrote the inscription, which appears on the following page, for his tombstone in the old churchyard they had so often crossed side by side. To SARAH RYAN, Wesley's housekeeper at Bristol, and to her friend, DOROTHY FURLEY: "October 1st, 1759.
"She lived in Russia for some years, it seems," Julian continued. "Her mother was Russian a great writer on social subjects." Furley nodded. "Miss Abbeway is rather that way herself," he remarked. "I've heard her lecture in the East End. She has got hold of the woman's side of the Labour question as well as any one I ever came across."
Furley declared enviously. "Sunshine like this makes one feel as though one were on the Riviera instead of in Norfolk. Shall you visit the scene of your adventure?" "I may," Julian answered thoughtfully. "The instinct of the sleuthhound is beginning to stir in me. There is no telling how far it may lead." Julian started on his tramp about half an hour later.

"You are all old-fashioned and stiff with prejudice," Furley declared. "Even Orden," he went on, turning to Catherine, "only tolerates me because we ate dinners off the same board when we were both making up our minds to be Lord High Chancellor."

Tulliver had determined that Furley should meet his plans with the utmost alacrity; and there are men whoses brains have not yet been dangerously heated by the loss of a lawsuit, who are apt to see in their own interest or desires a motive for other men's actions. Mr.
"You think so, do you?" Julian remarked pensively. "Who wouldn't? I hate espionage. So does every Englishman. That's why we are such duffers at the game, I suppose." Julian watched his friend with a slight frown. "How in thunder did you get mixed up with this affair, Furley?" he asked quietly. Furley's bewilderment was too natural to be assumed.
He flashed his torch on to the maker's name and returned thoughtfully to his friend. "Miles," he confessed, as he entered the sitting room, "there are some things I will never make fun of again. Have you a personal enemy here?" "Not one," replied Furley.
"Miss Abbeway and I," he said, "have been having a most interesting conversation, or rather argument. I find that she is entirely of your way of thinking, Furley.
