“What do I hear, Miss Dill?” said Miss Barrington, with an affected severity.
“I’m afraid, madam, it is true; there has been what my father calls ‘a contagious endemic’ here lately, and we have both caught it; but ours are mild cases, and we hope soon to recover.”
“What’s this I see here?” cried Fred, who, to conceal his shame, had taken up the newspaper. “Listen to this: ‘The notorious Stapylton, alias Edwardes, whose case up to yesterday was reported all but hopeless, made his escape from the hospital, and has not since been heard of. It would appear that some of the officials had been bribed to assist his evasion, and a strict inquiry will be immediately set on foot into the affair.’”
“Do you think he has got over to France?” whispered Peter to Withering.
“Of course he has; the way was all open, and everything ready for him!”
“Then I am thoroughly happy!” cried Barrington, “and there’s not even the shadow of a cloud over our present sunshine.”
THE END.
