It was folly, in his opinion, to try such a task without a force that would insure success from the first. Worrell, however, was as vehement for an immediate advance, insisting that all that was needed was promptness. A liberal reward had been promised him, and would assuredly be his if his plan was carried to a successful completion.
Bagley emerged from the house and shook hands with Worrell, the two at once entering into a hurried conversation, while the Indians, in accordance with their nature, stood apart, saying nothing to each other, but satisfied to wait till the time should come for them to act in obedience to the orders of their leader.
It evidently belonged to one of the settlers in the Wyoming valley, who had been smitten with the panic which drove so many from their homes, and had fled without taking any of his stock with him, or destroying his property to prevent it falling into the hands of the enemy. The manner of Worrell showed that he awaited some person or signal in connection with this house, but he was disappointed.

"'Wich I told your brother ugh, ugh! an' I've slaved, an', ugh, ugh! an' wich it were all a mistake ugh, ugh! 'ave mercy, gentlemen. "'But you said you would murder me, and you nearly did murder me, and "'Peace, Mr. Worrell, said Grahame, impressively; 'the hour of your redemption draweth nigh.
'Who is she? what is she? how did you know her? where does she come from? wears her hat on her brows! huge gauntlets out of style! shady! shady! shady! And as always during her nervous tumults, the name of Worrell made diapason of that execrable uproar. Her hat on her brows had an air of dash, defying a world it could win, as Ned well knew. But she scanned her gauntlets disapprovingly.
He had heard, that there was talk of Miss Radnor. Her name was in the mouth of Major Worrell. It was coupled with the name of Mrs. Marsett. A military captain, in the succession to be Sir Edward Marsett, bestowed on her the shadow of his name. It could be certified, that Miss Radnor visited the woman at her house.
"'An hungrateful fool, marry an' turn me hoff; ugh, ugh! fix 'im, hany 'ow. "The following morning Worrell rose early, and passing through the breakfast-room, received a sulky greeting from his housekeeper, and went out to over-look the labors of his men.
He was Marsett's friend, and he boasted of not letting Ned Marsett make a fool of himself. Dartrey was not long in shaping the man's character: Worrell belonged to the male birds of upper air, who mangle what female prey they are forbidden to devour. And he had Miss Radnor's name: he had spoken her name at the Club overnight.
What do you say?" "And shall Rosa and I wait here till you come back?" "That will be the safer plan, unless another Worrell comes along and takes you away to a new cavern or hiding-place." "We will be as safe here as anywhere," said Rosa, believing that her opinion would have some weight in the matter. "I suspect she is right," assented her brother.
