Ivor was supposed according to Girard, the detective to have tried in vain to escape by way of this high balcony, on hearing sounds outside the door while busy in searching the dead man's room. Girard said that he had seen him first, by the light of a bull's-eye lantern, which he Girard carried, standing at bay in the open window. There was a photograph of this window, taken from outside.
I am particularly sorry for his poor old mother, who has suffered a great deal, both mentally and physically, on his account." "Ay, that's the warst o' it," said the skipper. "It wass the sicht o' the poor wumin ailin' in body an' broken heartit that first set me at Ivor." "But how comes it, Captain, that you plead so earnestly for total abstinence?" asked Jackman with a smile.
The gunwale went down, the sea rushed in, and, in a space of time brief as the lightning-flash, all the occupants of the boat were struggling in the waves! A great cry arose from the shore, and Ivor, plunging into the surf, was seen to breast the billows with the force of a Hercules. In the moment of upsetting, John Barret's cowardice and scruples vanished.
"And but you will choose. You want to save him, of course." "Why?" "Because he's innocent. Because he's your friend." "No man is the friend of any woman, if he's in love with another." "Oh, Lisa, does sophistry of that sort matter? Does anything matter except saving him?" "I don't consider," she said, in a slow, aggravating way, "that Ivor Dundas has behaved very well to to our family.

"If this had only come to pass a dozen years ago," he added, while a gleam of light illumined the sound eye, "I might have gone off to Valhalla with a straight hack and some credit. But mayhap a good onset will straighten it yet, who knows? and I do feel as if I had strength left to send at least one foe out of the world before me." Ivor the Old nodded.
In this work Ivor Donaldson found a sufficient outlet for the fierce unnatural energies which had been aroused within him. He went about heaving and hauling, and staggering under weights that in an ordinary state of body and mind he could scarcely have moved.
"Kidnaped?" "The word I used was 'kidnaped. But I will spell it if you like. Or I will get a dictionary, that you may see its meaning." The duchess looked as if she was beginning to be not quite sure if she was awake or sleeping. She turned to Ivor. "Mr. Dacre, has the accident affected Hereward's brain?" The duke took the words out of his cousin's mouth.
It was nearly an hour later when Ivor and Mary made their appearance. "We waited to see the moon rise," said Ivor. "It was gibbous, you know," Mary explained, very technical and scientific. "It was so beautiful down in the garden! The trees, the scent of the flowers, the stars..." Ivor waved his arms. "And when the moon came up, it was really too much. It made me burst into tears."
The queen, the boys' mother, refusing to leave the hall, perishes also. In Saxo's version, the boys attack the usurper in his hall and set fire to the building; he hides himself in a secret underground passage and perishes of smoke and gas. It is told of Ivor that when he rescues the children he is accompanied by his dog. Not only that, but the dog's name is given.
