Alban's Head, where a cargo had been run a month or two before, when they caught sight of the signal off Lulworth. Well, you may guess they did not get much for their pains. The carts had all made off as soon as they heard the Boxer's guns, and knew that the game was up, for the night anyhow, and they found every light out in Lulworth, and everyone, as it seemed, fast asleep.
Sir Lulworth Quayne was making a leisurely progress through the Zoological Society's Gardens in company with his nephew, recently returned from Mexico. The latter was interested in comparing and contrasting allied types of animals occurring in the North American and Old World fauna.
She looked round with the triumphant smile of a successful unraveller of mystery. "How about Le Five O'Clock?" interposed Sir Lulworth. "It would fit either of them equally well," said Odo; "can you remember any details about the jockey's colours? That might help us." "I seem to remember a glimpse of lemon sleeves or cap, but I can't be sure," said Lola, after due reflection.
"One meets with those ideas of reincarnation so frequently, even in the West," said Sir Lulworth, "that one can hardly set them down as being mad.

"I have tried every known remedy," said Lola, with dignity; "I've been a martyr to insomnia for years." "But now we are being martyrs to it," said Odo sulkily; "I particularly want to land a big coup over this race."
More often sketched than Lulworth; perhaps because it is easier to draw, is Durdle Door or Barn Door, the romantic natural arch that juts out at the end of Barndoor Cove. The outline has all the appearance of stage scenery of the goblin cavern sort. So lofty is the opening that a sailing boat can pass through with ease.
