WADE DOWN!
The hugging of Wade by the happy pair had to be done metaphorically, since it was done in the sight of all Dunderbunk.
He had divined a happy result, when he missed Bill Tarbox from the arena, and saw him a furlong away, hand in hand with his reconciled sweetheart.

"Your time will come," the foreman rejoined.
And says Belle, "I am sure there is a lady skating somewhere, and only waiting for you to follow her."
