Lurgan and his son had hitched a horse to a wood-sleigh, and hurried down the trail to the unfortunate man. Theodora, knowing that her assistance was not needed, and that she ought to get home as quickly as possible, went on her way as soon as she had seen the stranger in safe keeping.
It is there as it was there. 'It is there as it was there, said Lurgan, watching Kim closely while the boy rubbed his neck. 'But you are the first of many who has ever seen it so.

Kim glanced sideways at his companion, whose eye had a way of compelling truth. 'I I think he will want me when I come from the school, but' confidentially, as Lurgan Sahib nodded approval 'I do not understand how he can wear many dresses and talk many tongues.
