She looks like a boy in petticoats, a damned pretty boy and a damned haughty one," he added, chuckling. "I overheard her this morning, in the garden, making mincemeat of a French officer." The Englishman laughed. "Been making love to her, I expect. A thing she does not understand and won't tolerate. She's the coldest little fish in the world, without an idea in her head beyond sport and travel.
Most of 'em went over to the south'ard," he pointed down the rookery, "where there was a boat I hadn't seen, but these six tried to rush me. I just had time to shove the boat off, grab my guns, an' face 'em." "It was a bully hold-up," said Colin delightedly, "one against six." "Had to," said the sailor, "or the six would have made mincemeat o' the one.
"I knows who done it!" broke in Eradicate, who was a sort of privileged character about the Swift home. "Who?" asked Mr. Jackson. "It were dat Andy Foger.
