"Went on rowing, and held a council. This time I came out as the clever one of the party. At my suggestion we changed our course, and made for a large town, higher up on the shore, called Tawley.
"Is Brightfold on the railway?" "No." "Is there an electric telegraph at the place?" "Yes." "That was awkward, wasn't it? The first thing those men would do would be to telegraph to Tawley." "Not a doubt of it. How would they describe us, do you think?" Randal answered. "A middle-aged gentleman two ladies, one of them elderly and a little girl.
We landed, and waited for events, and made no discovery of another boat behind us. The fools had justified my confidence in them they had gone to Brightfold. There was half-an-hour to spare before the next train came to Tawley; and the fog was beginning to lift on that side of the lake. We looked at the shops; and I made a purchase in the town."
