So good-day to you, Squire, and to you also, archer, and may you find your way back with whole bones from the wars!" That night the comrades slept in Godstone Priory, and early next morning they were well upon their road down the Pilgrim's Way.

"Good-day," said I, "pretty damsel, sitting in the farm porch." "Good-day," said the girl, looking at me for a moment, and then fixing her eyes on her book. "That's a nice book you are reading," said I. The girl looked at me with surprise. "How do you know what book it is?" said she. "How do I know never mind; but a nice book it is no love, no fortune- telling in it."

I'd got up into the crib to play, and that man didn't see me. Then he said good-day to my Marie and then he kissed her." "You let him kiss you, Marie?" said Germain, trembling with anger.

Inspector Dawfield bade him good-day, and added the information that his companion was Detective Barrant, of Scotland Yard. Pengowan greeted Barrant with the respect due to the name of Scotland Yard, and took a humble seat at the back of the car. They went on again, and in a few minutes the car stopped at the end of the rough moor track, close to where the black cliffs dropped to the grey sea.

"Very well, if you know better. Good-day! But let the wedding wait. Traa dy liooar time enough, Mr. Cregeen. A right good Manx maxim for once. Put it off put it off!" "It's not my putting off, doctor. What can you do with a man that's wanting to be married? You can't bridle a horse with pincers."

"Ah, well! fate will have it so; my good girl, it is impossible to-day." "How?" "My boy has taken my boat to go with the others to a rowing match at Saint Ouen.

When they called for the vessels again, I was green enough to return what bread I had left; but my comrade seized it, and said that I should lay that up for lunch or dinner. Soon after he was let out to work at haying in a neighboring field, whither he went every day, and would not be back till noon; so he bade me good-day, saying that he doubted if he should see me again.

"She'll be a good while with me," he said, with a sneer. "None of you you, your husband, or your son ever had thirty pounds to spare in your lives."
