Scarsdale climbed up into the wagon, struck a light, looked at the body of Mazarine, at his face, and then lifted up the beard and examined the neck. There were finger-marks in the flesh.

'I met' I could not say my cousin 'I met him, uncle your son that young gentleman I saw him, I should say, at Church Scarsdale, and afterwards with some other persons in the warren at Knowl. It was the night our gamekeeper was beaten. 'Well, Dudley, what do you say to that? asked Uncle Silas. 'I never was at them places, so help me.
