Dean felt a warm wave of relief. He thanked the journalist cordially and was about to leave, when the telephone bell rang sharply in the adjoining news room. The sub-editor in charge took up the receiver. "Ullo, ullo! C'est ici le Chronicle," said the sub-editor, and after listening for a moment signed imperatively to Martin to come in and shut the door.
Ginger and Peter was both fast asleep, with their eyes screwed up and their mouths wide open, and 'e sat on the bed and looked at the locket until he was a'most dazzled. "'Ullo, Sam!" ses a voice. "Wot 'ave you got there?" Sam nearly fell off the bed with surprise and temper. Then 'e hid the locket in his 'and and blew out the candle. "Who gave it to you?" ses Ginger.

''Ullo, Ned, what's the dog after? 'Thinks 'e's smelt a rabbit, seems to me. ''Ain't a rabbit hole 'ere. 'Thinks there is, anyhow. Look at the pore beast! They both laughed.

'Ullo! 'Ul-lo!" His fingers fell on Percy's shoulder again, but this time not in a mere warning tap. They rested where they fell in an iron clutch. "It won't do, you know," he said.

"Yeer! Where be tu?" A roar of laughter followed this sally. The occupants of the tug were taken by surprise.

"You wot called, was it? Wot price me for arnswerin' of you, eh?" "Yes, it was I that called," she replied, making a brave front of it.
Still invisible, Pocky wished them all much laughter and joy, and then suddenly said "'Ullo, 'ullo, 'ere's a new friend.
