Excerpt from The Strong Hours

Suddenly there broke upon the stillness a patter of scurrying feet followed by the vision Of a slim sturdy figure, in a brown jersey suit, that dashed out Of the shrubbery and sped along the gravel path toward the house. Faster and faster it sped; Shoulders squared, head flung back, hair flying, the small blunt featured face set in resolute lines. At eight years Old it is a very serious matter to be a smuggler, caught red-handed, fleeing for dear life from the clutches Of Outraged Authority; and Derek was always terribly in earnest over the game of the moment.
