It did not take them long, and under one of the last few bricks Guerchard found a fragment of a gilded picture-frame. "Here's where they ought to have done their sweeping," he said, holding it up to the Duke. "I tell you what," said the Duke, "I shouldn't wonder if we found the furniture in this house still."
