We drove rapidly away, and before I had, in view of this mysterious proceeding, composed a fitting paragraph for the Fatti Diversi of the Osservatore Triestino, descriptive of the state in which the Guardie di Polizia should find me floating in the bay, exanimate and evidently the prey of a triste evvenimento the driver pulled up once more, and now beside a steamer.
They watched the ship's officer put ashore to obtain pratique, and the yellow flag come down, and heard the signal-bells of the engine-room, as the officer returned, with a great cigar in one corner of his bearded mouth. There was nothing amiss. There were neither Carabinieri nor Guardie di Pubblica Sicurezza to come on board with papers and cross-questions.
"You see, little pal, I'm your guardian." "Are you?" "Yes, and I'm giving you due legal notice that you have no right to marry without my consent you promise to make me your confidant?" A soft laugh full of tenderness and joy came from the girl as she turned her eyes upward for the first time: "All right, guardie, I'll confer with you on that occasion."
So her passenger list, which included, outside of Frank and Durkin, only a consumptive Welsh school-teacher and a broken-down clergyman from Birmingham, who kept always to his cabin, was in danger of no over-close scrutiny, either from the Neapolitan Guardie Municipali on the one hand, or from any private agents of Keenan and Penfield on the other.
On each side of it stages were raised like steps in an amphitheatre, which were densely crowded, every window decorated with gaily-coloured hangings and the Italian flag; the streets were lined with "guardie civiche," and bands of music played from time to time. The people shouted "Evviva!" every time a gun was fired.
She ceased running as she came to the bend in the hall, for she heard the sound of voices, and the light grew stronger. She would have dodged back, but it was too late. Then she saw that it was Durkin, beside three jabbering and gesticulating Guardie di Pubblica Sicurezza. "Oh, there you are!" said his equable and tranquil voice, as he removed his hat.
