"Then I 'low yo' want yo' supper now, Sar?" But Carrington shook his head. "No, you needn't bother, Jeff," he said, as he turned toward the stairs.
After what had passed that morning between Arnold and Blanche, if he remained at Lady Lundie's, he had no alternative but to perform his promise to Anne.

Did he mention any names?" "No," replied Barbee thoughtfully. "He jus' cusses me an' dies game. But this here was in his pocket." He passed it to his employer. It was a bit of note-paper. Steve and Terry read it together as Steve struck one match after another. Then they looked into each other's faces, grown very tense, while Barbee smoked in silence.
