Trelawny
stood
in
the
hall
beside
the
massive
ironbound
door
,
and
gave
directions
as
to
the
placing
of
each
of
the
great
packing-cases
.
Those
containing
many
items
were
placed
in
the
inner
hall
where
they
were
to
be
unpacked
.
In
an
incredibly
short
time
the
whole
consignment
was
delivered
;
and
the
men
departed
with
a
douceur
for
each
,
given
through
their
foreman
,
which
made
them
effusive
in
their
thanks
.
Then
we
all
went
to
our
own
rooms
.
There
was
a
strange
confidence
over
us
all
.
I
do
not
think
that
any
one
of
us
had
a
doubt
as
the
the
quiet
passing
of
the
remainder
of
the
night
.
The
faith
was
justified
,
for
on
our
re-assembling
in
the
morning
we
found
that
all
had
slept
well
and
peaceably
.
During
that
day
all
the
curios
,
except
those
required
for
the
Great
Experiment
,
were
put
into
the
places
designed
for
them
.
Then
it
was
arranged
that
all
the
servants
should
go
back
with
Mrs.
Grant
to
London
on
the
next
morning
.
When
they
had
all
gone
Mr.
Trelawny
,
having
seen
the
doors
locked
,
took
us
into
the
study
.
"
Now
,
"
said
he
when
we
were
seated
,
"
I
have
a
secret
to
impart
;
but
,
according
to
an
old
promise
which
does
not
leave
me
free
,
I
must
ask
you
each
to
give
me
a
solemn
promise
not
to
reveal
it
.
For
three
hundred
years
at
least
such
a
promise
has
been
exacted
from
everyone
to
whom
it
was
told
,
and
more
than
once
life
and
safety
were
secured
through
loyal
observance
of
the
promise
.
Even
as
it
is
,
I
am
breaking
the
letter
,
if
not
the
spirit
of
the
tradition
;
for
I
should
only
tell
it
to
the
immediate
members
of
my
family
.
"
We
all
gave
the
promise
required
.
Then
he
went
on
:
"
There
is
a
secret
place
in
this
house
,
a
cave
,
natural
originally
but
finished
by
labour
,
underneath
this
house
.
I
will
not
undertake
to
say
that
it
has
always
been
used
according
to
the
law
.
During
the
Bloody
Assize
more
than
a
few
Cornishmen
found
refuge
in
it
;
and
later
,
and
earlier
,
it
formed
,
I
have
no
doubt
whatever
,
a
useful
place
for
storing
contraband
goods
.
'
Tre
Pol
and
Pen
'
,
I
suppose
you
know
,
have
always
been
smugglers
;
and
their
relations
and
friends
and
neighbours
have
not
held
back
from
the
enterprise
.
For
all
such
reasons
a
safe
hiding-place
was
always
considered
a
valuable
possession
;
and
as
the
heads
of
our
House
have
always
insisted
on
preserving
the
secret
,
I
am
in
honour
bound
to
it
.
Later
on
,
if
all
be
well
,
I
shall
of
course
tell
you
,
Margaret
,
and
you
too
,
Ross
,
under
the
conditions
that
I
am
bound
to
make
.
"
He
rose
up
,
and
we
all
followed
him
.
Leaving
us
in
the
outer
hall
,
he
went
away
alone
for
a
few
minutes
;
and
returning
,
beckoned
us
to
follow
him
.
