"If I left your ladyship here, there's no saying when I should see you again." Pollyooly scowled again, and Eglantine burst into loud and excited protest: "Her ladyship must sleep in the house--in her own bed--properly." The lawyer paid no heed to her protest, but bade her pack her young mistress's clothes at once.

He said that the sooner she was at the hotel, the safer he would feel.

He did not get his way without further and louder protests from Eglantine; but in the end he got it.

She packed the little kit-bag for Pollyooly with clothes of Lady Marion.
The detective carried it.

As they were starting she gave Pollyooly two sovereigns wrapped up in a five-pound note, saying that the duchess had left it for her.
