On the third day, the Roman party made the signal by smoke, to notify that they had gained possession of the eminence to which they had been directed; and then the consul, dividing his forces into three parts, marched up with the main strength of his army, through a valley in the middle, and made the wings on right and left advance to the camp of the enemy.
While they were yet speaking, the undertaker came in to make inquiry as to the funeral arrangements to be observed. "Is the coffin ready?" asked Jasper, in a cold, business manner. "It is," was the reply. "What of the ground? Did you see to her husband's funeral?" "Yes. I have attended to all these matters. Nothing remains but to fix the time, and notify the clergyman."
He turned again to the other kaldanes. "Will you notify Luud that I am here?" he asked. "Sept has already gone to Luud. He will tell him," replied one. "Where did you find this rykor with the strange kaldane that cannot detach itself?" The girl's captor narrated once more the story of her capture.

"Not more than a few minutes." "Well, at any rate, the time is up, and they have sent me to notify you that they will wait no longer. I suppose that you, mother and Jennie, have got together all that you can take away. As I have to escort you back, I will carry the things, unless you smuggle in some of the bedsteads."
A signal had been arranged to notify those in the woods if any good news came, and as Major Dale placed his daughter in the arms of Cologne, Mrs. Markin ran out of doors, and blew the big horn, until she had no more breath left. This was heard by Jack, Ned and Nat, who were just then preparing to drag the lake.
