Bill lingered, contemplating his work with artistic appreciation. "Herr Gott! Vood you look at it!" The horror in Jan's voice caused the rest to desist. The fallen tent had uprisen, and in the gathering twilight it flapped ghostly arms about and titubated toward them drunkenly. But the next instant John Gordon found the opening and crawled forth.

But Archelaus, speechless, was staring along the terrace to its eastern end, where, at the head of a flight of steps leading down among the shrubberies, a head had suddenly uprisen into view a head in a gray bonnet with trimmings of subdued violet the head of Miss Gabriel. "H'm!" said Miss Gabriel, and turned to Mr. and Mrs. Pope, who were mounting the stairway at her heels.
Slight sounds from time to time disturbed the silence and to these he listened attentively. He longed for the arrival of his father for the strong, calm counsel of the one man in England fitted to cope with the Hell Thing which had uprisen in their midst.
