"According to my opinion, Master Crang, you have told us everythingwonderful clear, as clear as if we had been there to see it, consideringof the time of night.

But Churchwarden Horner saith,and everybody knows the value of his opinion, that the law is such, thatevery subject of the King, whatever his own opinion may be, hath to giveit the upper course, and do no more harm than grumble."

"We would not ask you even so," continued Nicie, with a grateful glance,"if it were not that you know the place, and perhaps may find somepeople there still living to remember you. When my father lay wounded atthe house of my grandfather, and was in great danger of his life, you,being also disabled for a time, were allowed at his request to remainwith him, and help him. Will you go to that place again, to do us aservice no one else can do?" 0852c4b9a8
