CHAPTER XXI
18/45

This little piece of metal may furnish ten pikemen.

What have we here?
A letter and an enclosure.

"To James, Duke of Monmouth"-- hum! It was written before we assumed our royal state.

"Sir Jacob Glancing, late of Snellaby Hall, sends greeting and a pledge of affection.

Carry out the good work.
A hundred more such ingots await you when you have crossed Salisbury Plain." Bravely promised, Sir Jacob! I would that you had sent them.
Well, gentlemen, ye see how support and tokens of goodwill come pouring in upon us.
