The trial was a swift, nearly secret one. Daisy Huston was not dragged into the case at all. In one respect the trial failed. Neither culprit could be forced to tell for which foreign government the dastardly work had been attempted. The "Spitfire" returned to Dunhaven, and was later sold to the government, with several other boats. Williamson became the new Pollard captain.
"Then we can do it easily." Daisy Huston had stepped from the cab. She stood regarding the scowling captive. "I'm glad I know you, Donald; glad I found you out in time," she said, quietly, gazing hard at him. "I thought you a friend," Millard retorted, bitterly.
Mrs. Potter continued with her mother's family in Lycoming county, frequently visiting her two sisters, Mrs. Huston and Mrs. Burnside, who resided in Bellefonte, where, in 1815, she was united in marriage, by Rev. James Linn, with William W. Potter, a young and rising lawyer, and son of General James Potter, one of the early settlers of the county.
But you're not hurt badly. I hurried a horseman on to you. He reached you?" "Yes, thank you," nodded Lieutenant Benson. "And now, Miss Huston, I must inform you that we have Millard your Donald Graves a prisoner and manacled. I must first find a way of getting you back into town. Then I must turn Millard over to the authorities."
Lieutenant Abercrombie, R.N., jogged his own mount steadily alongside, so that he could at all times command a view of the interior. Millard Donald Graves would have opened some conversation with Daisy Huston, but the disdainful girl cut him short.
Jack inquired, as the cab turned down a country lane. "Only a very short distance, now," replied Daisy Huston. "Jove, but she's a stunning girl for nerve and principle," thought Lieutenant Jack, admiringly. "She's going, now, to what must be the tragedy of her plans and hopes, yet she has her color back again, and looks as composed as though out only for an airing!"
Just think Cummings, Huston, Sanson, Austin, Ward, McAbee, Hobson, Bailey, Smith, Black, Brown, White Bah! the sound of them is like rumors of a plague. I want to flee from them. I want to hear new names ringing in my ears. And I hate the faces no less than I do the names. I would rather live on a prairie where you expect nothing; and get it anything so long as it is new."
But Miss Waverly saw somebody on the trail the other side of Harte's this afternoon. Mistook him for me until I told her. A big man about my size riding a sorrel. Know who it was?" Again Smith shook his head. "Can't call him to mind, Buck. It might be Huston for size, but he hasn't got a sorrel in his string, an' then he's took on too much fat lately to be mistook for you. Go on inside.
"My Dear Mary: I reached here Friday afternoon, and had a more comfortable journey than I expected. The night aboard the packet was very trying, but I survived it, and the dust of the railroad the following day. Yesterday the doctors, Huston, McCaw, and Cunningham, examined me for two hours, and I believe, contemplate returning to-day.
"There is the house," almost whispered the girl, at last, resting a steady, cool hand on his arm. Jack looked and saw the place a little, oldfashioned house, standing in among trees, some hundred feet from the road. In that swift glance he also noted that there were no ether buildings near. Daisy Huston did not ask whether the young man at her side proposed to try to arrest the man he sought.
