Even though we may never marry, there is a faithfulness of the spirit, Tim. It's it's the biggest part of love, really " She broke off, and presently she felt Tim's hands on her shoulders. "I think I understand, dear," he said gently. "It's just what I should expect of you. It means the end of everything everything that matters for me. But somehow I would not have you otherwise."
Tim he'd grawed to a power wi' the gypsy people by that time; but faither was allus hard against un. He hated wanderers in tents or 'pon wheels, or even sea-gwaine sailor-men he carried it that far. Then comed a peep o' day when Tim's bonny yellow caravan 'peared around the corner of that windin' road what goes all across the Moor.
Surprised, they ceased their paddling for a moment and looked over to where she stood. To their amazement and Little Tim's horror, the girl, barefoot and bare-armed, and clad in a light calico frock, gave a laugh and dived into the stream. A moment more, she reappeared a few feet from the boom, and was unmistakably heading for the swift water beyond running down to the flume.
After all, that's the place. Here there is no chance anyway. Why did I not go sooner?" He rose from the grass, shivering with a sudden chill, went to his bed in the hay mow, and, covering himself with Tim's blankets and his own, fell again into sleep. Here, late in the afternoon, Tim found him and called him to supper.
"The bill for those mirrors was only £98-7-6; and I made the man knock off the seven and sixpence as discount for cash. I'm learning to be a business man by degrees." Gorman wrote down £98 on the cover of his cheque book. "And the hire of the hall?" he said. "What will that come to?" I had hired a small hall for the exhibition of Tim's moving picture ghosts.
"Because we're safe," said Uncle Felix. "It was a warning." And then all turned their attention to Tim's discovery of the keyhole. For the stuffing had been removed. The white, dusty road gleamed through the hole in a spot of shining white. "Hush!" whispered their guide. "There's something moving." "Perhaps it's Jinks in his cemetery," thought Judy after a pause to listen.
It would serve Tim the right turn, in truth, if something should come of it between him and Joan. He smiled in anticipatory pleasure at Tim's discomfiture and surprise. But that was not in store for him, he sighed. Joan would shake her wings out in a little while, and fly away, leaving him there, a dusty sheepman, among the husks of his dream. Still, a man might dream on a sunny afternoon.
Sense of direction left them, for they continually changed the angle, compelled by the undergrowth to do so. Twigs leaped at them and stung their faces, Tim's cheeks were splashed with mud, Uncle Felix's clean white flannels showed irregular lines of dirty water to his knees.
When the liquid and the "skeeter" had passed into Tim's stomach he enlightened the inquirer. "Ye dunno what's a devil's darnin' needle? Gosh! I'm s'prised at ye. I seen lots of 'em right on this here river.
"Sure it wasn't three-quarters of an inch?" is Tim's provoking answer. Of all irritating things, perhaps the most irritating is to have your big bundle of news calmly opened and emptied, and its contents appropriated without scruple or acknowledgment.
