It
seemed
a
long
time
before
Ginger
came
back
,
and
before
we
were
left
alone
;
and
then
she
told
me
all
that
she
had
seen
.
“
I
can
’
t
tell
much
,
”
she
said
.
“
We
went
a
gallop
nearly
all
the
way
,
and
got
there
just
as
the
doctor
rode
up
.
There
was
a
woman
sitting
on
the
ground
with
the
lady
’
s
head
in
her
lap
.
The
doctor
poured
something
into
her
mouth
,
but
all
that
I
heard
was
,
’
She
is
not
dead
.
’
Then
I
was
led
off
by
a
man
to
a
little
distance
.
After
awhile
she
was
taken
to
the
carriage
,
and
we
came
home
together
I
heard
my
master
say
to
a
gentleman
who
stopped
him
to
inquire
,
that
he
hoped
no
bones
were
broken
,
but
that
she
had
not
spoken
yet
.

When
Lord
George
took
Ginger
for
hunting
,
York
shook
his
head
;
he
said
it
ought
to
be
a
steady
hand
to
train
a
horse
for
the
first
season
,
and
not
a
random
rider
like
Lord
George
.
Ginger
used
to
like
it
very
much
,
but
sometimes
when
she
came
back
I
could
see
that
she
had
been
very
much
strained
,
and
now
and
then
she
gave
a
short
cough
.
She
had
too
much
spirit
to
complain
,
but
I
could
not
help
feeling
anxious
about
her
.
Two
days
after
the
accident
Blantyre
paid
me
a
visit
;
he
patted
me
and
praised
me
very
much
;
he
told
Lord
George
that
he
was
sure
the
horse
knew
of
Annie
’
s
danger
as
well
as
he
did
.
“
I
could
not
have
held
him
in
if
I
would
,
”
said
he
,
“
she
ought
never
to
ride
any
other
horse
.
”
I
found
by
their
conversation
that
my
young
mistress
was
now
out
of
danger
,
and
would
soon
be
able
to
ride
again
.
This
was
good
news
to
me
and
I
looked
forward
to
a
happy
life
.
Now
I
must
say
a
little
about
Reuben
Smith
,
who
was
left
in
charge
of
the
stables
when
York
went
to
London
.
No
one
more
thoroughly
understood
his
business
than
he
did
,
and
when
he
was
all
right
there
could
not
be
a
more
faithful
or
valuable
man
.
He
was
gentle
and
very
clever
in
his
management
of
horses
,
and
could
doctor
them
almost
as
well
as
a
farrier
,
for
he
had
lived
two
years
with
a
veterinary
surgeon
.
He
was
a
first
-
rate
driver
;
he
could
take
a
four
-
in
-
hand
or
a
tandem
as
easily
as
a
pair
.
He
was
a
handsome
man
,
a
good
scholar
,
and
had
very
pleasant
manners
.
I
believe
everybody
liked
him
;
certainly
the
horses
did
.
The
only
wonder
was
that
he
should
be
in
an
under
situation
and
not
in
the
place
of
a
head
coachman
like
York
;
but
he
had
one
great
fault
and
that
was
the
love
of
drink
.
He
was
not
like
some
men
,
always
at
it
;
he
used
to
keep
steady
for
weeks
or
months
together
,
and
then
he
would
break
out
and
have
a
“
bout
”
of
it
,
as
York
called
it
,
and
be
a
disgrace
to
himself
,
a
terror
to
his
wife
,
and
a
nuisance
to
all
that
had
to
do
with
him
.
He
was
,
however
,
so
useful
that
two
or
three
times
York
had
hushed
the
matter
up
and
kept
it
from
the
earl
’
s
knowledge
;
but
one
night
,
when
Reuben
had
to
drive
a
party
home
from
a
ball
he
was
so
drunk
that
he
could
not
hold
the
reins
,
and
a
gentleman
of
the
party
had
to
mount
the
box
and
drive
the
ladies
home
.
Of
course
,
this
could
not
be
hidden
,
and
Reuben
was
at
once
dismissed
;
his
poor
wife
and
little
children
had
to
turn
out
of
the
pretty
cottage
by
the
park
gate
and
go
where
they
could
.
Old
Max
told
me
all
this
,
for
it
happened
a
good
while
ago
;
but
shortly
before
Ginger
and
I
came
Smith
had
been
taken
back
again
.
York
had
interceded
for
him
with
the
earl
,
who
is
very
kind
-
hearted
,
and
the
man
had
promised
faithfully
that
he
would
never
taste
another
drop
as
long
as
he
lived
there
.
He
had
kept
his
promise
so
well
that
York
thought
he
might
be
safely
trusted
to
fill
his
place
while
he
was
away
,
and
he
was
so
clever
and
honest
that
no
one
else
seemed
so
well
fitted
for
it
.
It
was
now
early
in
April
,
and
the
family
was
expected
home
some
time
in
May
.
The
light
brougham
was
to
be
fresh
done
up
,
and
as
Colonel
Blantyre
was
obliged
to
return
to
his
regiment
it
was
arranged
that
Smith
should
drive
him
to
the
town
in
it
,
and
ride
back
;
for
this
purpose
he
took
the
saddle
with
him
,
and
I
was
chosen
for
the
journey
.
At
the
station
the
colonel
put
some
money
into
Smith
’
s
hand
and
bid
him
good
-
by
,
saying
,
“
Take
care
of
your
young
mistress
,
Reuben
,
and
don
’
t
let
Black
Auster
be
hacked
about
by
any
random
young
prig
that
wants
to
ride
him
—
keep
him
for
the
lady
.
”
We
left
the
carriage
at
the
maker
’
s
,
and
Smith
rode
me
to
the
White
Lion
,
and
ordered
the
hostler
to
feed
me
well
,
and
have
me
ready
for
him
at
four
o
’
clock
.
A
nail
in
one
of
my
front
shoes
had
started
as
I
came
along
,
but
the
hostler
did
not
notice
it
till
just
about
four
o
’
clock
.
Smith
did
not
come
into
the
yard
till
five
,
and
then
he
said
he
should
not
leave
till
six
,
as
he
had
met
with
some
old
friends
.
The
man
then
told
him
of
the
nail
,
and
asked
if
he
should
have
the
shoe
looked
to
.
