"I shall want to use some of it to-morrow, and I live ten miles away--in Claremont."

"How are you going back?"

"I don't know any one I could get."

"I can find you a companion, but he would want to be paid."

"I'll pay him if he'll see me through all right."

"I have the very man for you. Here, Luke!"
