But they rise so suddenly to their full height out of the flat sea of green country that they often appear as a coast defended by a bold range of mountains. Roseberry Topping stands out in grim isolation, on its masses of alum rock, like a huge seaworn crag, considerably over 1,000 feet high.

For Grace's protection, I want your card before you leave us." It was impossible for Julian to mention the reasons which now forbade him to make use of his own precautions in the very face of the emergency which they had been especially intended to meet. How could he declare the true Grace Roseberry to be mad? How could he give the true Grace Roseberry into custody?

"Now, if I had some pasteboard I could make some furniture, and we'd play with the Roseberry family this afternoon." "Dinner is nearly ready now," said Molly, "but it will be fun to play with them this afternoon. We could have two or three families. What can I name mine?"

She claimed Colonel Roseberry I wish to be strictly accurate she claimed the late Colonel Roseberry as her father. She told a tiresome story about her having been robbed of her papers and her name by an impostor who had personated her. She said the name of the impostor was Mercy Merrick.

The carriage which we heard approaching along the drive turns out to have been a cab sent for from the house. The person who has gone away in it " "Is a woman, as you supposed?" "Yes."
