"What did she say to you ?" The young man leaned forward again.
"I wish, Ralph--" he began.
"I was asking--" began the other.
"There, there," said Sir James.

"Go on, Chris." "Well, after a while Dr.Bocking brought me forward; and told her to look at me; and her eyes seemed to see something beyond me; and I was afraid.

But he told me to ask her, and I did.

She said nothing for a while; and then she began to speak of a great church, as if she saw it; and she saw there was a tower in the middle, and chapels on either side, and tombs beside the high altar; and an image, and then she stopped, and cried out aloud 'Saint Pancras pray for us'-- and then I knew." Chris was trembling violently with excitement as he turned to the priest for corroboration.

Mr.Carleton nodded once or twice without speaking.
"Then I knew," went on Chris.
