We hid it when we first came here.

But I hid it in a new place yesterday, and have not told him--shall not tell him.

I was going to desert, and get away with it all.

It is gold, and too heavy to carry when one is running and dodging; but a woman who has been gone over the river two days to prepare my way for me is going to follow me with it; and if I got no chance to describe the hiding-place to her I was going to slip my silver watch into her hand, or send it to her, and she would understand.

There's a piece of paper in the back of the case, which tells it all.
