What the girl, Louisa Speck, has told you about what happened after I entered the Bank House is quite correct she's a reliable and a good witness and gave her evidence most intelligently. She took me up into Mallett's dressing-room, showed me where I could get what I wanted, and left me to make my toilet.
Lawrence Lane is a narrow thoroughfare, about eighty to ninety yards in length which lies at the back of Mr. Mallett's house I mean the bank premises the Moot Hall, and Dr. Wellesley's house. It's north entrance, at the corner of the bank, is in Woolmarket; its south in Strand Lane.
All concerned gained great credit for the heavy blow that had been inflicted on the mutineers, and the affair was highly spoken of in the Brigadier's report to the Commander in Chief. Shortly afterwards Mallett's name appeared in general orders as promoted to a brevet Majority, pending a confirmation by the home authorities.
Mallett, as you know, is a downright, plain-spoken woman, with strong views of her own, and she's just the sort to go through with a thing. Some little time ago she found, evidently through Mallett's carelessness, a receipt for a very valuable diamond ring from a London jeweller, a lady's ring.
"Why is anything the matter?" she exclaimed, as she caught sight of her face. "I have become suddenly faint, Hannah," Bertha replied. "I suppose it was the heat yesterday; and it is very warm this morning, too. I am better now, and it will soon pass over. I will go indoors for half an hour, and then I shall be quite right again.

"In a moment," repeated Dysart insolently, and turned his back. The colour surged into Mallett's face; he turned sharply on his heel. "Wait!" said Geraldine; "Duane do you hear me?" "I'll take you back," began Dysart, but she passed in front of him and laid her hand on Mallett's arm. "Won't you wait for me, Duane?"
And now it's that young dog Jack! te-he! yes, it's Jack, now! But he's a good son, my boy Jack; he's a good son to me and he's all Dysart, all Dysart; bon chien chasse de race! te-he! Oui, ma fois! bon chien chasse de race." By the first of January it became plain that there was not very much left of Colonel Mallett's fortune, less of his business reputation, and even less of his wife's health.
