"No, he won't," said the deputy. "He is in the mine, that is one comfort; and if he comes out alive his life won't be worth much, with the law on one side of the blackguard and Judge Lynch on t'other." "The first thing," said the Colonel, "is to save these precious lives. God help us and them."
Thus he listened without fully understanding the explanations which the Socialist deputy was passionately giving him, while all around them the uproar increased, and bursts of laughter rang out, testifying to the astonishment which the others felt at seeing Mege in conversation with a priest. "How stupid they are!" said Mege disdainfully.
Now, one more question: Can a person, using one of these things, successfully lie to another person who wears one?" "No, sir." Bond was positive. "It's impossible." "I got that impression. Thanks." The deputy turned and walked out of the door. Bond looked after him, a slight smile growing on his lips. "Old Man wanted 'em," he told himself. "He's got 'em."
Lieutenant-Colonel Harvey, the Deputy Adjutant-General of the army, shrewdly suspecting the design of the enemy, despatched Colonel Battersby from York, who arrived in time to re-inforce Maule. Scott made no attack, but with the advice, or at all events, the concurrence of the commodore, did a much wiser thing.

An hour later McNally returned. He greeted the deputy with a suave smile, and requested an interview with Mr. West. "I'm not sure about that," said the deputy. "That is too bad," smiled McNally. "Kindly speak to Mr. West." With a disapproving glance the deputy opened the door. Harvey came forward. "Well," he said brusquely, "what can I do for you?"
"Not much need of having in high-priced experts to prove the coin's queer, is there, Kil?" smiled Littlefield, as he thumped the dollar down upon the table, where it fell with no more ring than would have come from a lump of putty. "I guess the Greaser's as good as behind the bars," said the deputy, easing up his holsters. "You've got him dead.
The disagreement seems to have arisen from the bear’s hide, and if my friend the Judge had not hindered me, I should have reconciled the two adversaries right at the table. For I should have liked to tell a curious incident, similar to what occurred at our hunt yesterday, which happened to the foremost sportsmen of my time, the deputy Rejtan and the Prince de Nassau.
And as long as he's not here I'll take everything on myself. Come, follow me, but at some little distance. When I give the signal and not till then " He drew the bolt and turned the handle of the door. At that moment some one knocked. It was the butler. "Well?" asked Don Luis. "Why am I disturbed?" "The deputy chief detective, M. Weber, is here, sir."
