Sibyl returned gently, "Thank you, Mr. Marston believe me, I do appreciate your confidence, and " she in turn hesitated "and I will keep the trust." By noon, they had reached Granite Peak in the Galenas, having come by an unmarked way, through the wild country around the head of Clear Creek Canyon.
"I never meant to. It came into my mind all of a sudden and I felt that I must. It has to do with your sister and the Marston Rise affair." "My sister and the Marston Rise affair!"

"You don't mean that it was Elizabeth who was going to find you the money?" she cried.
No one spoke of it, but the thought was there all the same. Shortly after entering the wood, Nick called attention to two star-like points of light twinkling ahead of them. "They are the lanterns of Mr. Layton and Kilgore," said Nick, who immediately added, "we forgot to stop and get Mr. Marston."
Or it is possible, if he were sitting or standing here, that a long-armed man might have reached him. It was a man, Alan. We've got to believe that. It was a man." "Of course, a man," Alan nodded.

"The Wild Man again, surely," said Bounce, who, with his companions, had risen to await the coming up of the stranger. "D'you think so?" cried March Marston eagerly.
"And the traces of the outworks!" cried my uncle, flourishing his stick. "And the pedigree " "Ay, and your great-great-grandfather's armor, which he wore at Marston Moor " "Yes, and the brass plate in the church, uncle." "The deuce is in the boy!
