I
promised
him
it
should
be
harmless
,
but
he
remained
firm
.
I
couldn
’
t
altogether
blame
him
.
He
had
no
reason
to
trust
me
,
and
would
not
be
able
to
read
the
note
to
know
that
it
was
as
harmless
as
I
claimed
.
Anyway
,
I
’
d
neither
pencil
nor
paper
,
so
I
gave
that
up
.
After
pressing
,
he
did
consent
to
let
her
know
that
I
was
here
and
to
find
out
the
district
to
which
she
was
being
sent
.
He
was
not
keen
on
doing
that
much
,
but
he
bad
to
allow
that
if
there
were
to
be
any
straightening
out
of
the
mess
it
would
be
a
lot
easier
for
me
to
find
her
again
if
I
knew
where
to
start
looking
.
After
that
ii
had
simply
my
thoughts
for
company
for
a
bit
.
I
knew
I
ought
to
make
my
mind
up
once
and
for
all
on
the
right
course
,
and
stick
to
it
.
But
I
could
not
.
I
seesawed
.
Some
hours
later
when
I
fell
asleep
I
was
still
seesawing
.
There
was
no
means
of
knowing
which
way
Josella
had
made
up
her
mind
.
I
’
d
had
no
personal
message
from
her
.
But
All
had
put
his
head
in
once
during
the
evening
.
His
communication
had
been
brief
.
"
Westminster
,
"
be
said
.
"
Cor
!
Don
’
t
reckon
that
lot
’
s
goin
’
to
find
much
grub
in
the
‘
Ouses
o
’
Parliament
"
I
was
woken
by
Alf
coming
in
early
the
following
morning
.
He
was
accompanied
by
a
bigger
,
shifty
-
eyed
man
who
fingered
a
butcher
’
s
knife
with
unnecessary
ostentation
.
Alf
advanced
and
dropped
in
armful
of
clothes
on
the
bed
.
His
companion
shut
the
door
and
leaned
against
it
,
watching
with
a
crafty
eye
and
toying
with
the
knife
.
"
Give
us
yer
mitts
,
mate
,
"
said
Alf
.
I
held
my
hands
out
toward
him
.
He
felt
for
the
wires
on
my
wrists
and
snipped
them
with
a
cutter
.
"
Now
just
you
put
on
that
there
clobber
,
chum
,
"
he
said
,
stepping
back
.
I
got
myself
dressed
while
the
knife
fancier
followed
every
movement
I
made
,
like
a
hawk
.
When
I
’
d
finished
,
All
produced
a
pair
of
handcuffs
.
"
There
’
s
just
these
,
"
he
mentioned
.
