'I think a'most he be the biggest dog I ever saw, assented mistress Rees. 'I would I were less about the shoulders, said Richard. 'Who ever heard a man worth his mess of pottage wish him such a wish as that, master Heywood! What would mistress Dorothy say to hear thee? I warrant me she findeth no fault with the breadth of thy shoulders.
In looking over some notes I found a copy of White Mountain's report, which tells the story much more completely than I could hope to: "In accordance with instructions, accompanied by Nurse Catti from El Tovar I left Headquarters about 6:30 P.M. bound for Camp Roosevelt, to be of such assistance as possible to Rees Griffith, who had been injured by a falling rock.
It was the devil's hackles he had been through! Such a torn dishclout of a dog thou never did see! I understood it all in a moment. He had made one in the fight, and whether he had had the better or the worse of it, like a wise dog as he always was, he knew where to find what would serve his turn, and so when the house was quiet, off he came to old mother Rees to be plaistered and physicked.
Establish the price of sixty shillings. Yes, that's right sixty shillings. What is that you say? You want confirmation? Mr. Rees will speak." Wingate passed the telephone to the next man; also his flask, which he held for a moment to his lips. Rees gurgled greedily. His voice sounded strained, however, and cracked. "Mr. Rees speaking, Harrison. Yes, we are back.
Henceforth no such person as Miss Rees I mean Lady Saxonby exists for me; and if you'll remember that it will make things easier for us both." "Very well, Owen." Barry felt emboldened to light a cigarette; and then, with a tactlessness born of mental discomfort, he asked a blundering question. "What shall you do now, old man? Have another shot at big game for a bit, or what?"
"Tell me what you mean, man, when you say that you were responsible for his disappearance?" "You are curious? Perhaps a little superstitious, a little nervous about yourself, eh?" "What the devil have you done with Stanley Rees?" Dredlinton demanded. Wingate smiled. "Rees," he said, "as I reminded you, is the youngest of the British and Imperial directors.
"If Lord Dredlinton has been sitting for long in an atmosphere like this," he observed drily, "it's enough to have killed him." He glanced around with an air of distaste at Phipps and Rees, at the debris of the presumed debauch, and stooped over the body stretched upon the sofa. His examination lasted barely a minute. Then he rose to his feet.
The admiral took Rees on the 30th October, and Emmerich on the 2nd November two principal cities of Cleves. On the 8th November he crossed into the territory of the republic and captured Deutekom, after a very short siege. Maurice, by precaution, occupied Sevenaer in Cleves.
An English jury may call it murder if I shoot you two as you sit. I'll risk that. If I am going to get into trouble for one of you, I'll make sure of the lot." His voice carried conviction. The two men stared at him. Rees, who had been gnawing at a crust of bread, swallowed thickly, drained his glass and staggered to his feet. "You wouldn't dare!" he scoffed.
