MacLure compassed the precious arrival with observances till he was securely seated in Drumsheugh's dog cart a vehicle that lent itself to history with two full-sized plaids added to his equipment Drumsheugh and Hillocks had both been requisitioned and MacLure wrapped another plaid round a leather case, which was placed below the seat with such reverence as might be given to the Queen's regalia.
They could see the women standing at the door of every house on the hillside, and weeping, for each family had some good reason in forty years to remember MacLure.
For Drumtochty had its own constitution and a special throat disease, as became a parish which was quite self-contained between the woods and the hills, and not dependent on the lowlands either for its diseases or its doctors. "He's a skilly man, Doctor MacLure," continued my friend Mrs.
"Sit doon," thundered MacLure; "condemned ye will be suner or later gin ye shirk yir duty, but through the water ye gang the day." Both men spoke much more strongly and shortly, but this is what they intended to say, and it was MacLure that prevailed.
Five minutes, and Saunders had fallen into a deep, healthy sleep, all tossing and moaning come to an end. Then MacLure stepped softly across the floor, picked up his coat and waistcoat, and went out at the door. Drumsheugh arose and followed him without a word.
Ruth had already imagined a touching scene wherein she had been introduced to her future sphere of work, while those in authority overpowered Miss Maclure with thanks for helping them to find the ideal person to fill the vacant post. But Eleanor said nothing, suggested nothing, only sat staring with those grave, questioning eyes!
"What wud ye sae, Jamie," Hillocks suggested, "but it micht be some o' thae Muirtown doctors? they were awfu' chief wi' MacLure." "It's nae Muirtown doctors," cried Jamie, in great exultation, "nor ony ither doctors. A' ken thae horses, and wha's ahint them. Quick, man Hillocks, stop the fouk, and tell Drumsheugh tae come oot, for Lord Kilspindie hes come up frae Muirtown Castle."

But about a month ago she went away to Seal Harbor, to visit Janet MacLure. Know her?" "She came home to Richmond yesterday, and then came down here Allie, I mean. And yesterday afternoon Dolly had a letter from Janet something about a second man and saying she was disappointed not to have had Alison there, that she had promised them a two weeks' visit! What do you make of that?
"I am so sorry, so dreadfully sorry to have grieved you! But you would not like me to marry you just for what you could give me; you would not have been satisfied with that, would you, Dr Maclure?" His eyes met hers with a flash of determination. "No," he cried unhesitatingly "never! I want a wife who loves me, or no wife at all!
