"Well, I always had a theory that I believe will prove to divert a great deal of slide that does the damage, in a case like this one.
Beyond this, she remembered nothing. Allan sought and quickly found the aperture made by the smith through the limestone. "Evidently he'd been planning this coup for a long time," thought he. "The great catastrophe of the land-slide broke the last bonds of order and restraint, and gave him his opportunity. Well, it's his last villainy! I'll have this passageway cemented up.
