Excerpt from St. Cuthberts Tower, Vol. 3

And the result justified Mr. Brander's doubts. Ned Mitchell did, it is true, go to bed, but he Speedily got up again, impelled to this freak partly by the pain in his injured leg and partly by his unsatisfied curiosity concerning the accomplishments of his dogs. The vicar smiled as, after an hour and a half's watching, he saw Ned's candle glimmering weakly through the blinds; first on the upper floor of the cottage, and then on the lower. Presently Ned himself re-appeared at the back door, which he set wide open, before proceeding to draw on, his hands a pair of stout leather gloves. Then he retreated into the cottage again, and gave the vicar time to Open his Window a little way very softly. As he did so, sounds of yelping and soutfling reached his ears from the cottage, and a few moments later the hounds rushed Out into the garden.
