[What Timmy Did by Marie Adelaide Belloc Lowndes]@TWC D-Link bookWhat Timmy Did CHAPTER XX 14/23
Just within was a lodge, and in one of the windows of the lodge there shone a light.
Again Radmore stopped the car and jumped out, Timmy still heavily asleep. He went up to the door of the lodge and rapped with his knuckles.
It opened and revealed a young woman, fully dressed.
"What do you want ?" she exclaimed, in a frightened voice. "I've lost my way," he said, "and seeing a light in your window, I ventured to knock.
I've no idea where I am--I want to get to Beechfield." "Beechfield? Why, you're nigh forty miles from there," she said, surprised. "Can you tell me how I can get on to the Portsmouth Road ?" "Aye, I think I could do that; but stop your engine, please--I've a little girl in here as is very ill." He ran out and did what she asked.
