She is, however, seen entering his compartment at Selham. At Fittleworth she is seized with prudence and with panic. She is seen getting out on to the platform. And she is seen two hours later following the Captain up to London by the next train." She seemed to be considering it. "How many people," she said, "know that Charlie was in that train? People that matter I don't mean you and Norah."
Because, if the War Office had been all that he had in his mind he would have told us, and Viola would have told us, and they would have gone openly together, instead of dodging about like two clumsy criminals, one at Midhurst and the other at Selham. She said, "Go and find Kendal and tell him to bring the car around at once." I asked her what she was going to do? "Do?" she flashed at me.
Now, it was just when the town was alive with this strange scene that the procession which had been ordered by Ben Aboo came out from the Kasbah. At the head of it walked a soldier, staff in hand and gorgeous notwithstanding the rain in peaked shasheeah and crimson selham.
"If you must know," she said, "what happened was that Charlie was in that train, too he came bursting out on to the platform at Selham, awfully pleased with himself, because he'd picked my luggage up at Midhurst and bagged a corner seat for me, and made faces at people to keep them out." "Did you know he was going up to town?" I said. "No, of course I didn't. He didn't know it himself.
She was of course awfully sorry to leave us, but Norah understood, and Jimmy would look after us very well. No. She wasn't going up by Midhurst. She was going by Selham. She rose.

Israel's blood tingled to see how the bidders handled the girl, and to hear what shameless questions they asked of her, and with a long sigh he was turning away from the crowd, when another man came up to it. The man was black and old and hard-featured, and visibly poor in his torn white selham.
We could do it if we kept our heads; if we exceeded the speed limit; if we had luck; if we didn't break down; if neither the county constabulary nor the country traffic held us up. Kendal declared we could do it easily and allow for accidents. At Horsham Junction you have nearly half an hour to wait between the arrival of the Midhurst and Selham train and the departure of the London express.
