The expedition which Wogan and Gaydon showed was matched by the Princess.

For while they were fastening the last buckles, the door at the top of the stairs opened, and again that night Clementina whispered,-- "I am ready." "Come!" replied Wogan.

She wore a scarlet cloak upon her shoulders, and muffling it about her head she ran down with Mrs.Misset.Wogan opened the lower door of the inn and called for O'Toole.

O'Toole came running out before Wogan had ended his words, and sprang into his saddle.

Gaydon was already on the box with the reins gathered in his hand.
