"Yet had Sir Percival done this thing for my father, and if he would, he could have thought the same,--that it was not his affair but an affair of hind or yeoman."
"Is this Percival, he who is of King Arthur's court?" asked Gouvernail.
"Aye," replied Walker, nodding his head. "Do you know him?"
"Somewhat. Who else is there?" he further questioned, now interested.
"Sir Launcelot, Sir Neil and some others."
"Did they speak of a boy being there?"
"I do not remember. Yet I seem to recall that they did," replied Walker.
"I will help you. Come," and Gouvernail took his friend but a little way to where Sir Tristram was lodging.
Sir Tristram seated himself and listened to the two. He understood at once.
"When did King Mark say that he would start with his men?" he asked Walker.
