CHAPTER XIV
13/25

We mean to be there, but you know we don't understand Russian well enough to hear all that is said.

We want you to be there with us, too, to hear what they mean to do." "I will be there," the Russian said; "and if the young lords think it well, I will kill them both." "No, Alexis," Jack said; "that would never do.

It might get about that the governor had been killed by order of the count, and this would do more harm than if he were alive.

We will join you there.

There are plenty of bushes at the cross-roads, and we shall be able to hide there without difficulty." The coachman assented, and taking their seats, they again drove on.
