He brought her his violin, and told her to get ready and meet him in the woods with it that night, and they would go to a dance. She took it and hid it in the loft to the well-house and promised she'd go." "Are you done?" demanded Mrs. Comstock. "No.
We should have been feeling very comfortable and happy, but, as a matter of fact, we were not particularly so. The Story Girl was sitting on the mint beside the well-house, weaving herself a wreath of buttercups. Felicity was sipping from the cup of clouded blue with an overdone air of unconcern.
The door of the well-house was of iron, and secured by a chain and lock; perhaps the pump was so contrived that only a certain quantum of the sanctified beverage could be drawn up at a time, without application to some mechanism within; and wayfarers were thereby prevented from helping themselves /ad libitum/, and thus depriving the anchorite of the profit and the necessity of his office.
This thought, if a wordless sensation may be called a thought, made me hop and skip with pleasure.

The fact is, Folliot shot him with a revolver killed him on the spot. And then Folliot poisoned himself took the same stuff, the doctor said, that finished that chap Collishaw, and died instantly.
