" " Dishonoured ! — what does that mean, Luke ? " ^'Why you know, Yorke, as well as I can tell you, " he answered a little pettishly. But it was not the literal question Yorke had meant to put. Well enough she understood the mere technical term Luke employed ; but she wanted to com- prehend what lay behind in the way of diflSculty or danger.... " Do you think there is anything wrong % " she asked an- xiously. " It looks like it, " he replied, almost exultantly, for the man was but a man, and as such not above being mortal. Then, noticing the cloud that came over Yorke's face, he at once added, " But it may be only an accident, for all that ; I am sure I hope so. " And, in the interests of his and her business, he did hope it. "Thank you, " Yorke said, for she understood what it had cost Mr Friars' Acceptance. 145 him to make that addition, and why he made it ; and she remained for a minute or so silent, sick, by reason of that dull, aching sort of prevision of evil which had come upon her once before.
