MacCoy
had
a
great
astrakhan
collar
drawn
up
,
so
that
only
his
eyes
and
nose
were
showing
.
My
brother
was
dressed
like
a
woman
,
with
a
black
veil
half
down
his
face
,
but
of
course
it
did
not
deceive
me
for
an
instant
,
nor
would
it
have
done
so
even
if
I
had
not
known
that
he
had
often
used
such
a
dress
before
.
I
started
up
,
and
as
I
did
so
MacCoy
recognized
me
.
He
said
something
,
the
conductor
slammed
the
door
,
and
they
were
shown
into
the
next
compartment
.
I
tried
to
stop
the
train
so
as
to
follow
them
,
but
the
wheels
were
already
moving
,
and
it
was
too
late
.
"
When
we
stopped
at
Willesden
,
I
instantly
changed
my
carriage
.
It
appears
that
I
was
not
seen
to
do
so
,
which
is
not
surprising
,
as
the
station
was
crowded
with
people
.
MacCoy
,
of
course
,
was
expecting
me
,
and
he
had
spent
the
time
between
Euston
and
Willesden
in
saying
all
he
could
to
harden
my
brother
’
s
heart
and
set
him
against
me
.
That
is
what
I
fancy
,
for
I
had
never
found
him
so
impossible
to
soften
or
to
move
.
I
tried
this
way
and
I
tried
that
;
I
pictured
his
future
in
an
English
gaol
;
I
described
the
sorrow
of
his
mother
when
I
came
back
with
the
news
;
I
said
everything
to
touch
his
heart
,
but
all
to
no
purpose
.
He
sat
there
with
a
fixed
sneer
upon
his
handsome
face
,
while
every
now
and
then
Sparrow
MacCoy
would
throw
in
a
taunt
at
me
,
or
some
word
of
encouragement
to
hold
my
brother
to
his
resolutions
.
"
’
Why
don
’
t
you
run
a
Sunday
-
school
?
’
he
would
say
to
me
,
and
then
,
in
the
same
breath
:
’
He
thinks
you
have
no
will
of
your
own
.
He
thinks
you
are
just
the
baby
brother
and
that
he
can
lead
you
where
he
likes
.
He
’
s
only
just
finding
out
that
you
are
a
man
as
well
as
he
.
’
"
It
was
those
words
of
his
which
set
me
talking
bitterly
.
We
had
left
Willesden
,
you
understand
,
for
all
this
took
some
time
.
My
temper
got
the
better
of
me
,
and
for
the
first
time
in
my
life
I
let
my
brother
see
the
rough
side
of
me
.
Perhaps
it
would
have
been
better
had
I
done
so
earlier
and
more
often
.
"
’
A
man
!
’
said
I
.
’
Well
,
I
’
m
glad
to
have
your
friend
’
s
assurance
of
it
,
for
no
one
would
suspect
it
to
see
you
like
a
boarding
-
school
missy
.
I
don
’
t
suppose
in
all
this
country
there
is
a
more
contemptible
-
looking
creature
than
you
are
as
you
sit
there
with
that
Dolly
pinafore
upon
you
.
’
He
coloured
up
at
that
,
for
he
was
a
vain
man
,
and
he
winced
from
ridicule
.
"
’
It
’
s
only
a
dust
-
cloak
,
’
said
he
,
and
he
slipped
it
off
.
’
One
has
to
throw
the
coppers
off
one
’
s
scent
,
and
I
had
no
other
way
to
do
it
.
’
He
took
his
toque
off
with
the
veil
attached
,
and
he
put
both
it
and
the
cloak
into
his
brown
bag
.
’
Anyway
,
I
don
’
t
need
to
wear
it
until
the
conductor
comes
round
,
’
said
he
.
"
’
Nor
then
,
either
,
’
said
I
,
and
taking
the
bag
I
slung
it
with
all
my
force
out
of
the
window
.
’
Now
,
’
said
I
,
’
you
’
ll
never
make
a
Mary
Jane
of
yourself
while
I
can
help
it
.
If
nothing
but
that
disguise
stands
between
you
and
a
gaol
,
then
to
gaol
you
shall
go
.
’
"
That
was
the
way
to
manage
him
.
I
felt
my
advantage
at
once
.
His
supple
nature
was
one
which
yielded
to
roughness
far
more
readily
than
to
entreaty
.
He
flushed
with
shame
,
and
his
eyes
filled
with
tears
.
But
MacCoy
saw
my
advantage
also
,
and
was
determined
that
I
should
not
pursue
it
.
"
’
He
’
s
my
pard
,
and
you
shall
not
bully
him
,
’
he
cried
.
