The
Master of the Mint, with whom the Jacobite captain had often had transactions
before, vouched for their being men of honour and loyalty; and Kneebone was so
well satisfied with his representations, that he at once closed the matter by
administering to the applicants the oath of allegiance and fidelity to King James
the Third, and several other oaths besides, all of which those gentlemen took
with as little hesitation as the sum of money, afterwards tendered, to make the
compact binding. He seemed like a very
intelligent doctor and not at all like a snooty archbishop. Some Chinaman might take it into his head to shout:
"Death to the foreign devils!" And out of that wall yonder would boil battle and
murder and sudden death. I did what I

in her face. There was
a gulf of eight years between her and the youngest of her brace of sisters—an
impassable gulf inhabited chaotically by two noisy brothers. The thought of the picture but added to her despondency. We may be all murdered in
this unprotected place, and nobody be the wiser. Was
the young lady impatient for experience? Was she adventurous? As a man of the
world he did not think it becoming to accept maidenly calm as anything more
than a mask.
