It
is
of
that
I
came
to
speak
,
"
said
David
.
"
I
have
to
submit
to
you
,
and
through
you
to
the
Presbytery
,
proofs
of
a
dreadful
wickedness
among
professing
Christians
in
that
unhappy
place
.
Will
you
be
pleased
to
run
your
eye
over
these
papers
?
You
will
see
certain
names
subscribed
as
witnesses
.
"
Mr
.
Muirhead
began
to
read
the
depositions
carelessly
,
as
if
he
knew
what
to
expect
from
them
.
Then
his
attention
deepened
,
and
he
wrinkled
his
forehead
.
"
Hoots
!
What
’
s
this
?
"
he
cried
.
"
Ye
were
in
the
Wood
?
Ye
saw
this
and
that
?
Mr
.
Sempill
,
ye
’
re
not
exempt
from
the
charge
of
tampering
with
unlawful
things
.
"
"
I
went
there
as
God
’
s
servant
.
"
"
Nevertheless
-
-
"
He
read
on
,
and
his
brows
darkened
.
He
finished
,
flung
the
bundle
on
the
table
,
and
looked
at
David
with
a
troubled
and
uncertain
eye
.
"
Here
’
s
a
bonny
browst
o
’
yill
!
You
charge
your
chief
elder
with
the
sin
of
witchcraft
-
-
a
man
of
noted
godliness
,
as
I
myself
can
testify
-
-
and
you
conjoin
in
the
libel
five
women
who
are
unknown
to
me
.
What
is
your
evidence
,
I
ask
?
Your
ain
een
,
at
a
time
when
you
were
in
no
condition
to
see
clear
,
and
forbye
you
were
on
the
top
of
a
tree
,
and
it
was
in
the
mid
of
the
night
.
You
have
no
corroboration
.
But
I
pretermit
the
women
,
and
come
to
Chasehope
.
You
have
cherished
a
suspicion
of
him
since
Beltane
,
says
you
,
when
you
were
present
in
the
Wood
.
And
what
,
I
ask
,
did
you
there
at
that
season
,
Mr
.
Sempill
?
I
opine
that
your
ain
conduct
wants
some
explanation
.
"
"
That
I
can
give
,
"
said
David
.
"
You
have
further
the
evidence
of
the
man
Andrew
Shillinglaw
,
and
the
plot
you
prepared
against
Chasehope
.
Man
,
I
see
nothing
in
your
red
cock
’
s
feathers
or
your
hennyseed
,
as
you
call
it
.
The
well
is
tainted
,
so
how
can
you
look
for
pure
water
?
Your
Reiverslaw
is
notoriously
a
wine
-
bibber
and
a
ruffler
and
a
despiser
of
ordinances
.
What
hinders
that
he
should
be
also
a
leear
?
The
cock
’
s
feathers
may
all
the
time
have
been
in
his
pouch
,
and
he
may
have
played
some
prank
at
Chasehope
with
the
stinkin
’
oil
.
You
have
the
witness
of
the
herds
,
says
you
,
but
it
’
s
easy
enough
to
begowk
two
landward
simpletons
.
Your
case
will
not
hold
water
,
sir
,
before
any
competent
court
,
and
Reiverslaw
,
your
principal
abettor
,
stands
suspect
.
As
the
old
owercome
has
it
,
he
suld
bide
still
that
has
riven
breeks
.
