Each cottage they came to, Mrs. Morel cried: "Is it this? Now, this is it!" Everybody sat breathless. They drove past. There was a universal sigh. "I'm thankful it wasn't that brute," said Mrs. Morel. "I WAS frightened." They drove on and on. At last they descended at a house that stood alone over the dyke by the highroad.

"Yes, I'm all right, an' I wish as she was," answered Morel. "But Minnie's a good little wench, bless 'er heart!" He sat looking dismal. "I s'll have to be going at half-past three," said Paul.

Annie played the part of maid, then went downstairs for hot water. "I think she's rather tired, mother," said William. "It's a beastly journey, and we had such a rush." "Is there anything I can give her?" asked Mrs. Morel. "Oh no, she'll be all right." But there was a chill in the atmosphere.
