It seems that she missed her train in a final, frantic endeavour to do as we said. We told her to deliver the letter to Geoffrey or Barley alone. Ten times she took that letter to your cousin's Salzburg address; ten times she was asked to leave it; and ten times the poor girl refused. When she had missed her train she determined to try once more, and this time they managed to bluff her into giving it up. Well, the moment I heard her story I knew that the damage was done, so Sabre and I made for Witchcraft as fast as ever we could. I confess I was rather worried. You see, though you didn't know it, you and Pharaoh had now the same objective. It seemed extremely likely that you would use the same roads. And even when Pharaoh arrived— as he did, about half past nine— I couldn't be sure that he'd missed you, for he might have dealt with you and come on for me. I watched him take the path, with Dewdrop, like some familiar, padding behind. Their silence was rather dreadful; they never exchanged one word.
