"Wot's this about them amatoor clo'es?" he inquired portentously. "Oo 'as the key of that box?" "I have," said Elkin. "I locked it after the last performance, and, unless you've been up to any monkey tricks, Tomlin, the duds are there yet." "You're bitin' me 'ead off all the mornin', Fred," protested the aggrieved landlord. "Fust, the gin was wrong, an' now I'm supposed to 'ave rummidged yur box.
The two boats came to a halt a few yards from the enemy. "What's up?" panted Jackson, crimson from his exertions. "Hullo, it's the Judies!" Tomlin was parleying with the foe. "Why the dickens can't you keep out of the way? Spoiling our race. Wait till we get ashore." But the Judies, it seemed, were not prepared to wait even for that short space of time.
And as Tomlin and Pearse came up, they, too, were abruptly halted in like manner; and a grinning Carib motioned each back with an unspoken command which was none the less inexorable.
Tomlin stared at the ash of one of the cigars "stood" by this talkative Londoner; Hobbs, whose glass had reached a low level again, examined the dregs almost fiercely; and Siddle seemed to be about to say something, but, with his usual restraint, kept silent. Then Ingerman made a very shrewd guess, and wondered who Doris Martin was, and what Hobbs's cryptic allusion had meant.
He's worth any three of ordinary strength, and he's a favorite with the men, too." Here the horse and his rider returned. "What a got in a pocket for Angel?" the young autocrat proceeded to demand when lifted down. Of all her masculine subjects in the Tenement, Mr. Tomlin was her veriest slave. He produced a soiled but gay advertising picture. Her ladyship put out her hand.
"I was just tellin' the facts." "So am I. I think you ought to know about that hat and the other things. I would recognize them anywhere. Furneaux had something up his sleeve, too, or he wouldn't have pumped Tomlin... Woa, boy! So long, Robinson! I must put this youngster into his stall." "I'll wait, Mr. Elkin," said Robinson solemnly. "I want to have a word with you."
He tore aside the tapestry, and tried to see through the gloom of the cavern. His eyes could not pierce the blackness, and he looked around for a light, while Venner and Tomlin walked toward him with sudden interest in their faces.
"By noon to-morrow the truth shall be shown to thee." And in leaving him she placed in his hands the rapier that had been taken from him by Dolores. To Tomlin next she appeared, and his rapier also she returned; but in his ear was breathed the name of John Pearse.
Tomlin was wont to observe when the Angel, coming to see the baby, would stand with grave wonder, touching the pallid little cheek with a rosy finger to make the baby smile, the Angel noted nothing of all this. Even the memory of "Mamma" was fading, and Mary, Norma, the Tenement, the friendly children swarming staircase and doorway, were fast becoming her small world.
"Divided to her disaster and Milo's triumph!" Then the maid wrapped herself in a robe, and went out to the camp. Like a fantom she appeared to Venner, and as swiftly vanished; but in the moment that she bent over him she whispered in his ear that Tomlin was the chosen of Dolores; that he and Pearse were doomed at the hands of their friend. "I tell thee, watch," she said.
