Bendigo
Redmayne at his house, "Crow's Nest," beyond Dartmouth. She wrote:
"My uncle has begged me to come and I was thankful to do so. I
have to tell you that Uncle Bendigo received a letter yesterday
from his brother, Robert. I begged him to let me send it to you
instantly, but he declines. Uncle Bendigo is on Captain
Redmayne's side I can see. He would not, I am sure, do anything
to interfere with the law, but he is convinced that we do not
know all there is to be told about this terrible thing. The
motor boat from 'Crow's Nest' will be at Kingswear Ferry to
meet the train reaching there at two o'clock to-morrow and I
hope you may still be at Paignton and able to come here for a
few hours."
She added a word of thanks to him and a regret that his holiday was
being spoiled by her tragedy.
Whereupon the man's thoughts turned to her entirely and he forgot
for a while the significance of her letter. He had expected to see
her that night at Princetown.
