Lord Hastings immediately ran for London; and six hours after the D-17 had docked there, the lads found themselves once more in Lord Hastings’ palatial home. And Lady Hastings took them both by the arms and addressed them thus:
“You know how fond I have grown of you two boys. You have been away long and I have missed you. This time, I shall keep you with me.”
As Frank and Jack blushed and bowed and scraped uncomfortably, Lord Hastings only smiled and nodded.
“Yes,” said Lady Hastings quietly, “you have done much for England, all three of you boys,” and she glanced affectionately at her husband. “Now, for a time, you shall take orders from no one but me. You shall all stay here and rest!”
THE END.
