My theory is this. When Moreland got out of the cab at Powlett Street " "But he didn't," interrupted Calton, angrily. "Let us suppose, for the sake of argument, that he did," said Kilsip, quietly.
Sir William answered that he was under an engagement to be present at the marriage of one of his college friends, and that he should set out in company with Mr. Moreland. At that name our tender and apprehensive fair one involuntarily started. "Mr. Moreland!" said she to herself, "Ah, it was at his house that my unknown resided. It is very seldom that Mr. Moreland undertakes a journey.
There he paused, looking straight ahead. "Wonder if I would frighten her?" he mused. "I believe I'll risk it." He walked on rapidly, vaulted the fence enclosing his land, crossed the road, and unlatched the gate. As he did so, the door opened, and Granny Moreland stood on the sill, waiting with keen eyes.
"Knew her father letter of introduction, and all that sort of thing," said Mr. Moreland, glibly. "Ah! indeed," said Mr. Gorby, slowly. "So Mr. Whyte knew Mark Frettlby, the millionaire; but how did he obtain a photograph of the daughter?" "She gave it to him," said Moreland. "The fact is, Whyte was very much in love with Miss Frettlby." "And she "
No, it could not be, and yet this would surely happen unless he took means to prevent it. The day after he had seen Moreland, and knew that his secret was no longer safe, since it was in the power of a man who might reveal it at any moment in a drunken fit, or out of sheer maliciousness, he sat at his desk writing.
He deigned no reply; but told Helen that Captain Moreland was waiting for her, and she had better go on board at once. She stood like a statue. "No, papa, I'll not turn my back on him till I know whether he is a felon or a martyr." "My poor child, has he caught you at once with a clever phrase? A judge and a jury have settled that."
"The sins of the father are generally visited upon the children by the world," he said bitterly. "But after the first pain is over, in new lands among new faces, she will forget the bitter past." "Now that it is settled Moreland is to be arrested," said Calton, "how is it to be done? Is he still in Melbourne?"
General Rolleston walked the deck in great agitation, and now indulged in wild hopes, which Captain Moreland thought it best to discourage at once. "Ah, sir," he said; "don't you run into the other extreme, and imagine he has come on our business. It is at sea as it is ashore. If a man goes out of his course to speak to you, it is for his own sake, not yours.
Whyte went out of the hotel, and shortly afterwards Moreland followed with the coat, which was left behind by Whyte, and then someone snatched it from him." "Ah, did they?" interrupted Kilsip, quickly. "So Moreland says," said Calton, stopping short.
She is my wife, and if this is the end she belongs to me, and I will do as I choose with her. All of you go!" The Harvester stepped to the bathroom door and called Granny Moreland. "Granny," he said, "science has turned tail, and left me in extremity. Fill your hot-water bottles and come in here with your heart big with hope and help me save my Dream Girl.
