"I do not think that it is in the interests of justice that they should find him," he said gravely. "I place the utmost reliance on him. I am sending Mr. Jackson to a farm in Ontario kept by a medical friend of mine who has made a hobby of dealing with dipsomaniacs." He met her eyes unfalteringly. "Dr. van Heerden," she said slowly, "you are sending Mr. Jackson to Red Horse Valley."
Autocrat under his own roof, the man paused in surprise. Never before had a command here been disobeyed. He could scarcely believe his own senses. "You know what to do, then," he said sharply. For the first time a touch of color came into the woman's cheeks, and catching the man's eyes she looked into them unfalteringly. "Since when did I become your slave, Tom Blair?" she asked slowly.
But the thing they meant to do, they did unfalteringly; and perfect workmanship is in itself a virtue in this world of shoddy compromise and ragged effort.
Lingering thus until the first rays of the sun came to glorify its waving folds, I drank in deep draughts of patriotism and love for the holy cause, sweet, inspiring, elevating; a tonic powerful and lasting in its effects, bracing mind and soul to persevere in the course I had marked out for myself, to tread unfalteringly a path beset by difficulties then undreamed of.
"It's him, tagging along, I reckon." "Oh," said Hawkins. "That accounts for it." Past the field where the horses were grazing and up the canyon on the side toward Skyline Meadow, that lay on a shoulder of Bear Top, the dog nosed unfalteringly along the trail. Now and then he was balked when the hoofprints led him to the bank of Granite Creek, but not for long.

"My lord," I said, "you know in what direction Master Sparrow led the men.
I'm a very friendly beggar, and Nevile, you know I say!" and he turned her a sober face "You know, I suppose? His wife eh? Dead, you know. Oh, but of course you did!" She met him unfalteringly. "Yes, he told me." Chevenix shrugged. "I must say, you know what? Oh, of course, it was a ghastly affair all along. But you know all that, as well as I do. Why, her temper! Oh, awful!

She made a little fluttering movement with her clasped hands. Her face was raised unfalteringly to his. "I haven't forgotten," she said. "But you thought I had," said Max. Her lips quivered.
They looked at him so steadily, so unfalteringly, that his own face burned before he had finished what was in his mind to say, and he freed her hands and stepped back from her again. "Forgive me for saying all that," he entreated. "But it's true. You came to me there, at Cardigan's place, like something I'd always dreamed about, but never expected to find.
Shouts, cheers, blessings on his name awoke in answer, as unfalteringly, as bravely as those of the advancing foes. Prancing, neighing, rearing, the superb charger was at length brought to the dauntless leader. "Not thus, my lord; in heaven's name, do not mount thus, unarmed, bareheaded as thou art!" exclaimed several voices, and two or three of his esquires crowded round him.
