"Thank you, governor," and he rode on. We soon turned upone of the side streets, and about halfway up that we turned intoa somewhat narrow street, with rather poor-looking houses on one side,and what seemed to be coach-houses and stables on the other.
My owner pulled up at one of the homes and whistled. The door flew open,and a youthful woman, followed by a little girl and boy, ran out.There was a very lively greeting as my rider dismounted.
"Now, then, Harry, my boy, open the gates, and mother will bring usthe lantern."
The next minute they were all standing round me in a teeny stable-yard.
