'Well, we score,' said Ticehurst.
Sedgwick shook his head.
'It's not over yet.'
And so it proved, for Ticehurst met Healy in Main Street that evening.
'You think you've bested me,' said Healy, 'but you haven't. Nor you can't say you have till you get to sea with your men.'
'There seems some law to be had here after all, Mr. Healy,' replied Ticehurst.
'Oh, Smith's no good. We'll have him out,' said Healy; 'if these judges won't do as we want them, we'll have others that will.'
He cocked his hat and marched on.
'By Jove!' said Ticehurst. 'I wonder now!'
He went after the boarding-house keeper.
