"
Oh
,
"
said
Caleb
,
bowing
his
head
and
waving
his
hand
gravely
.
And
Mrs
.
Garth
knew
that
this
was
a
sign
of
his
not
intending
to
speak
further
on
the
subject
.
As
for
Bulstrode
,
he
had
almost
immediately
mounted
his
horse
and
set
off
for
Stone
Court
,
being
anxious
to
arrive
there
before
Lydgate
.
His
mind
was
crowded
with
images
and
conjectures
,
which
were
a
language
to
his
hopes
and
fears
,
just
as
we
hear
tones
from
the
vibrations
which
shake
our
whole
system
.
The
deep
humiliation
with
which
he
had
winced
under
Caleb
Garth
’
s
knowledge
of
his
past
and
rejection
of
his
patronage
,
alternated
with
and
almost
gave
way
to
the
sense
of
safety
in
the
fact
that
Garth
,
and
no
other
,
had
been
the
man
to
whom
Raffles
had
spoken
.
It
seemed
to
him
a
sort
of
earnest
that
Providence
intended
his
rescue
from
worse
consequences
;
the
way
being
thus
left
open
for
the
hope
of
secrecy
.
That
Raffles
should
be
afflicted
with
illness
,
that
he
should
have
been
led
to
Stone
Court
rather
than
elsewhere
—
Bulstrode
’
s
heart
fluttered
at
the
vision
of
probabilities
which
these
events
conjured
up
.
If
it
should
turn
out
that
he
was
freed
from
all
danger
of
disgrace
—
if
he
could
breathe
in
perfect
liberty
—
his
life
should
be
more
consecrated
than
it
had
ever
been
before
.
He
mentally
lifted
up
this
vow
as
if
it
would
urge
the
result
he
longed
for
—
he
tried
to
believe
in
the
potency
of
that
prayerful
resolution
—
its
potency
to
determine
death
.
He
knew
that
he
ought
to
say
,
"
Thy
will
be
done
;
"
and
he
said
it
often
.
But
the
intense
desire
remained
that
the
will
of
God
might
be
the
death
of
that
hated
man
.
Yet
when
he
arrived
at
Stone
Court
he
could
not
see
the
change
in
Raffles
without
a
shock
.
But
for
his
pallor
and
feebleness
,
Bulstrode
would
have
called
the
change
in
him
entirely
mental
.
Instead
of
his
loud
tormenting
mood
,
he
showed
an
intense
,
vague
terror
,
and
seemed
to
deprecate
Bulstrode
’
s
anger
,
because
the
money
was
all
gone
—
he
had
been
robbed
—
it
had
half
of
it
been
taken
from
him
.
He
had
only
come
here
because
he
was
ill
and
somebody
was
hunting
him
—
somebody
was
after
him
he
had
told
nobody
anything
,
he
had
kept
his
mouth
shut
.
Bulstrode
,
not
knowing
the
significance
of
these
symptoms
,
interpreted
this
new
nervous
susceptibility
into
a
means
of
alarming
Raffles
into
true
confessions
,
and
taxed
him
with
falsehood
in
saying
that
he
had
not
told
anything
,
since
he
had
just
told
the
man
who
took
him
up
in
his
gig
and
brought
him
to
Stone
Court
.
Raffles
denied
this
with
solemn
adjurations
;
the
fact
being
that
the
links
of
consciousness
were
interrupted
in
him
,
and
that
his
minute
terror
-
stricken
narrative
to
Caleb
Garth
had
been
delivered
under
a
set
of
visionary
impulses
which
had
dropped
back
into
darkness
.
Bulstrode
’
s
heart
sank
again
at
this
sign
that
he
could
get
no
grasp
over
the
wretched
man
’
s
mind
,
and
that
no
word
of
Raffles
could
be
trusted
as
to
the
fact
which
he
most
wanted
to
know
,
namely
,
whether
or
not
he
had
really
kept
silence
to
every
one
in
the
neighborhood
except
Caleb
Garth
.
The
housekeeper
had
told
him
without
the
least
constraint
of
manner
that
since
Mr
.
Garth
left
,
Raffles
had
asked
her
for
beer
,
and
after
that
had
not
spoken
,
seeming
very
ill
.
On
that
side
it
might
be
concluded
that
there
had
been
no
betrayal
.
Mrs
.
Abel
thought
,
like
the
servants
at
The
Shrubs
,
that
the
strange
man
belonged
to
the
unpleasant
"
kin
"
who
are
among
the
troubles
of
the
rich
;
she
had
at
first
referred
the
kinship
to
Mr
.
Rigg
,
and
where
there
was
property
left
,
the
buzzing
presence
of
such
large
blue
-
bottles
seemed
natural
enough
.
How
he
could
be
"
kin
"
to
Bulstrode
as
well
was
not
so
clear
,
but
Mrs
.
Abel
agreed
with
her
husband
that
there
was
"
no
knowing
,
"
a
proposition
which
had
a
great
deal
of
mental
food
for
her
,
so
that
she
shook
her
head
over
it
without
further
speculation
.
In
less
than
an
hour
Lydgate
arrived
.
Bulstrode
met
him
outside
the
wainscoted
parlor
,
where
Raffles
was
,
and
said
—
"
I
have
called
you
in
,
Mr
.
Lydgate
,
to
an
unfortunate
man
who
was
once
in
my
employment
,
many
years
ago
.
Afterwards
he
went
to
America
,
and
returned
I
fear
to
an
idle
dissolute
life
.
Being
destitute
,
he
has
a
claim
on
me
.
He
was
slightly
connected
with
Rigg
,
the
former
owner
of
this
place
,
and
in
consequence
found
his
way
here
.
I
believe
he
is
seriously
ill
:
apparently
his
mind
is
affected
.
I
feel
bound
to
do
the
utmost
for
him
.
"
