before
Magnus
could
reply
,
Garnett
turned
to
Keast

we

him
to
do
,
and

dozen
men
who
crowded
around
Magnus
,
“

s
what
we
want

Magnus
loosened
the
collar
about
his

“

Leader

suddenly

elected
honestly
,

t
it
?

“
How

you
,
sir
!

Magnus
burst
out
.
“
How
dare
you
question
me
—
call
me
to
account
!
Please
understand
,
sir
,

“
Oh

a
voice
from
the
group
.
“
You
