The Hidden Treasure of the old cottage had become the treasure of all England.
There is little more to add. Father John lived to be a century old, and died, carefully tended by his adopted children, and murmuring with his latest breath that everybody was good to him.
Master Lucas died soon after, leaving his business to Peter Brent, who had long managed it for him.
Madam Barbara lived to teach reading and embroidery to Jack's little girls, cherished as a mother by himself and his wife.
Jack himself survived many perils to see the Protestant religion firmly established in the reign of Elizabeth.
