Tenby applied for the discharge of his client, and the magistrate granted it without delay. A free man again! The words seemed to ring in Jack's ears as he left the court, but they meant little to him, so broken was he in spirit, so ashamed of his unmerited disgrace. Jimmie was waiting for him, and congratulated him fervently.
The coachman sulkily brought his horses round; the "ant business" had kept him waiting at "Tenby" gate nearly half an hour, and he had a strong objection to arriving at hotels when the dinner hour was long past and the cook, pettish at having to set to work again, quite callous about what she set before him.
But the most feared of all were the Danes, whose sudden appearance and quick movements and desperate onslaughts were the terror of the age. The "black Danes" came from the fords of Norway, the "white Danes" from the plains of Sweden and Denmark. The Danes settled on the south coast: Tenby is a Danish name. It was only by incessant fighting that the enemy could be kept at bay.
Tenby set the machinery of the law in motion as speedily as possible. About the time when Sir Lucius entered the dreary prison that lies Islington way, Gilbert Morris was brought to the court in Great Marlborough street.
He would leave me now for a while. There was a long talk from ship to shore before the gangplank was run out, and presently Thorgils spoke to Evan, seemingly close to the cabin door: "Here's a bit of luck for your princess," he said. "Her father is up in the camp yonder, with his guards behind him. Maybe there is trouble with the Tenby Danefolk, or going to be some.
Dunwal and his daughter had some few men and pack horses with them, and one Cornish maiden who attended Mara, so that we were quite a little train as we rode from Pembroke toward Tenby in the late afternoon, with a score of Howel's guards to care for us in all honour.
So I was not far wrong after all. Now I will make a new song of his deeds, and I do not think it will be a bad one." Then it came to pass that one day, when the wind blew fair for Tenby, I saw the ship draw away from me as her broad sail filled, while on the deck was Owen in a great chair, and from his side Nona waved to me, and Howel shouted that I must come over ere long and fetch Owen home.
Canon Wilton told her there was a house to let in the Precincts. "I'll take it," said Rosamund at once. "Esme Darlington has found me a tenant for No. 5, an old friend of his, or rather two old friends, Sir John and Lady Tenby. Where is it?" He took her to see it.
"From to-morrow," she said, "we have to keep in the orchard when we're at home, so the man won't hear us shouting." "What man?" asked Miss Bibby. "The one who writes books," said Lynn. "What is the child talking about?" said Miss Bibby, looking at Pauline. "At 'Tenby," said Pauline. "Well, he should have asked were there any children near when he took the cottage.
"I lived in the little town men call Tenby for three years. There also I heard of this man. He was a thrall himself once, and freed by this queen for some service or another. He is a well-hated man, both by Saxon and Welsh, being of both races, and therefore of neither, as one may say." "He seems to be trusted by the king, though!" Erling shrugged his shoulders.
