Esmond Clarenden demanded, first making sure of his bargain, like the merchant he was. Ferdinand Ramero stiffened insolently at these words, and looked threateningly at Father Josef. "You do," the holy man replied, something of the flashing light in his eyes alone revealing what sort of a soldier the State had lost when this man took on churchly orders.

"Now, you young rascal, be off at once, or I'll give you in charge!" said the man threateningly. "Coming here with such cock-and-bull tales." "What's it all about?" said a tall policeman, stepping forward. "Why, this young varmint has lost his dog and comes here after it, as cheeky as can be.

Instead of the comfortably tepid, genial ghost I have been in my past, sir, I shall be iced-water," cried the lady, threateningly.

"Pshaw! let him alone, Hal," said the boy, contemptuously. "Sir, if he is impertinent, thrash him."
