"In the next Saturday's paper: yes," replied Solomon, curtly. "Nay, I heard the old woman with my own ears," said Harry, gravely. "There had been no wreck when she told me she had seen the schooner.
He had pitched his float into the pool below the weir the pool which lies in the broad, flat fields, with scarce a house in sight but the lockman's cottage and for the first time on a Saturday's fishing he saw his bait go clear to the bottom instead of being lost to view instantly in the boiling water of the weir-pool.
