On the couch, tucked away between a novel and a crystal gazing-ball, was a white Persian kitten, fast asleep. Chilcote picked up the ball and held it between his eyes and the fire; then he laughed superciliously, tossed it back into its place, and caught the kitten's tail. The little animal stirred, stretched itself, and began to purr. At the same moment the door of the room opened.

Jemmy tried to do so; but puss, making a circuit round his legs, sprang forward into the arms of Gerty. "Whose kitten's that, Gerty?" said Nan. "Mine!" said Gerty, bravely. "Well, how long have you kept cats?" asked Nan. "Speak! how came you by this?" Gerty was afraid of the men.
