Mr.
Huxter
was
stunned
.
Henfrey
stopped
to
discover
this
,
but
Hall
and
the
two
labourers
from
the
Tap
rushed
at
once
to
the
corner
,
shouting
incoherent
things
,
and
saw
Mr.
Marvel
vanishing
by
the
corner
of
the
church
wall
.
They
appear
to
have
jumped
to
the
impossible
conclusion
that
this
was
the
Invisible
Man
suddenly
become
visible
,
and
set
off
at
once
along
the
lane
in
pursuit
.
But
Hall
had
hardly
run
a
dozen
yards
before
he
gave
a
loud
shout
of
astonishment
and
went
flying
headlong
sideways
,
clutching
one
of
the
labourers
and
bringing
him
to
the
ground
.
He
had
been
charged
just
as
one
charges
a
man
at
football
.
The
second
labourer
came
round
in
a
circle
,
stared
,
and
conceiving
that
Hall
had
tumbled
over
of
his
own
accord
,
turned
to
resume
the
pursuit
,
only
to
be
tripped
by
the
ankle
just
as
Huxter
had
been
.
Then
,
as
the
first
labourer
struggled
to
his
feet
,
he
was
kicked
sideways
by
a
blow
that
might
have
felled
an
ox
.
As
he
went
down
,
the
rush
from
the
direction
of
the
village
green
came
round
the
corner
.
The
first
to
appear
was
the
proprietor
of
the
cocoanut
shy
,
a
burly
man
in
a
blue
jersey
.
He
was
astonished
to
see
the
lane
empty
save
for
three
men
sprawling
absurdly
on
the
ground
.
And
then
something
happened
to
his
rear-most
foot
,
and
he
went
headlong
and
rolled
sideways
just
in
time
to
graze
the
feet
of
his
brother
and
partner
,
following
headlong
.
The
two
were
then
kicked
,
knelt
on
,
fallen
over
,
and
cursed
by
quite
a
number
of
over-hasty
people
.
Now
when
Hall
and
Henfrey
and
the
labourers
ran
out
of
the
house
,
Mrs.
Hall
,
who
had
been
disciplined
by
years
of
experience
,
remained
in
the
bar
next
the
till
.
And
suddenly
the
parlour
door
was
opened
,
and
Mr.
Cuss
appeared
,
and
without
glancing
at
her
rushed
at
once
down
the
steps
toward
the
corner
.
"
Hold
him
!
"
he
cried
.
"
Do
n't
let
him
drop
that
parcel
.
"
He
knew
nothing
of
the
existence
of
Marvel
.
For
the
Invisible
Man
had
handed
over
the
books
and
bundle
in
the
yard
.
The
face
of
Mr.
Cuss
was
angry
and
resolute
,
but
his
costume
was
defective
,
a
sort
of
limp
white
kilt
that
could
only
have
passed
muster
in
Greece
.
"
Hold
him
!
"
he
bawled
.
"
He
's
got
my
trousers
!
And
every
stitch
of
the
Vicar
's
clothes
!
"
"
'
Tend
to
him
in
a
minute
!
"
he
cried
to
Henfrey
as
he
passed
the
prostrate
Huxter
,
and
,
coming
round
the
corner
to
join
the
tumult
,
was
promptly
knocked
off
his
feet
into
an
indecorous
sprawl
.
Somebody
in
full
flight
trod
heavily
on
his
finger
.
He
yelled
,
struggled
to
regain
his
feet
,
was
knocked
against
and
thrown
on
all
fours
again
,
and
became
aware
that
he
was
involved
not
in
a
capture
,
but
a
rout
.
Everyone
was
running
back
to
the
village
.
He
rose
again
and
was
hit
severely
behind
the
ear
.
He
staggered
and
set
off
back
to
the
"
Coach
and
Horses
"
forthwith
,
leaping
over
the
deserted
Huxter
,
who
was
now
sitting
up
,
on
his
way
.
Behind
him
as
he
was
halfway
up
the
inn
steps
he
heard
a
sudden
yell
of
rage
,
rising
sharply
out
of
the
confusion
of
cries
,
and
a
sounding
smack
in
someone
's
face
.
He
recognised
the
voice
as
that
of
the
Invisible
Man
,
and
the
note
was
that
of
a
man
suddenly
infuriated
by
a
painful
blow
.
In
another
moment
Mr.
Cuss
was
back
in
the
parlour
.
"
He
's
coming
back
,
Bunting
!
"
he
said
,
rushing
in
.
"
Save
yourself
!
"
Mr.
Bunting
was
standing
in
the
window
engaged
in
an
attempt
to
clothe
himself
in
the
hearth-rug
and
a
West
Surrey
Gazette
.
"
Who
's
coming
?
"
he
said
,
so
startled
that
his
costume
narrowly
escaped
disintegration
.
"
Invisible
Man
,
"
said
Cuss
,
and
rushed
on
to
the
window
.
"
We
'd
better
clear
out
from
here
!
He
's
fighting
mad
!
Mad
!
"
In
another
moment
he
was
out
in
the
yard
.
