That
's
well
spoken
,
"
replied
Glenarvan
.
"
You
are
a
clever
,
daring
fellow
,
and
you
will
succeed
.
"
It
was
quite
evident
the
quartermaster
was
the
fittest
man
for
the
mission
.
All
the
rest
withdrew
from
the
competition
John
Mangles
made
this
one
last
objection
,
that
the
presence
of
Ayrton
was
necessary
to
discover
traces
of
the
Britannia
or
Harry
Grant
.
But
the
Major
justly
observed
that
the
expedition
would
remain
on
the
banks
of
the
Snowy
till
the
return
of
Ayrton
,
that
they
had
no
idea
of
resuming
their
search
without
him
,
and
that
consequently
his
absence
would
not
in
the
least
prejudice
the
Captain
's
interests
.
"
Well
,
go
,
Ayrton
,
"
said
Glenarvan
.
"
Be
as
quick
as
you
can
,
and
come
back
by
Eden
to
our
camp
.
"
A
gleam
of
satisfaction
shot
across
the
quartermaster
's
face
.
He
turned
away
his
head
,
but
not
before
John
Mangles
caught
the
look
and
instinctively
felt
his
old
distrust
of
Ayrton
revive
.
The
quartermaster
made
immediate
preparations
for
departure
,
assisted
by
the
two
sailors
,
one
of
whom
saw
to
the
horse
and
the
other
to
the
provisions
.
Glenarvan
,
meantime
,
wrote
his
letter
for
Tom
Austin
.
He
ordered
his
chief
officer
to
repair
without
delay
to
Twofold
Bay
.
He
introduced
the
quartermaster
to
him
as
a
man
worthy
of
all
confidence
.
On
arriving
at
the
coast
,
Tom
was
to
dispatch
a
detachment
of
sailors
from
the
yacht
under
his
orders
.
Glenarvan
was
just
at
this
part
of
his
letter
,
when
McNabbs
,
who
was
following
him
with
his
eyes
,
asked
him
in
a
singular
tone
,
how
he
wrote
Ayrton
's
name
.
"
Why
,
as
it
is
pronounced
,
of
course
,
"
replied
Glenarvan
.
"
It
is
a
mistake
,
"
replied
the
Major
quietly
.
"
He
pronounces
it
AYRTON
,
but
he
writes
it
Ben
Joyce
!
"
THE
revelation
of
Tom
Ayrton
's
name
was
like
a
clap
of
thunder
.
Ayrton
had
started
up
quickly
and
grasped
his
revolver
.
A
report
was
heard
,
and
Glenarvan
fell
wounded
by
a
ball
.
Gunshots
resounded
at
the
same
time
outside
.
