TWO:"I was right, then," said the baroness, in a more composed tone��"it was Stephen Holgrave who did the deed; but father, if you spurn my offers, at least answer me yes or no to one question��Am I the mother of a living son?"The court of Pie-powder was situated at the extremity of the fair-green, about twenty paces beyond the last stall: the court was a kind of tent, with a large, high-backed chair in the centre for the judge, a long table being placed before him, on which were balances and weights of various descriptions, to ascertain the truth of any charges that might be preferred against the sellers at the fair: there was also a smaller balance, a stone, and a small phial of liquid, to prove the weight and purity of any coin that might be doubted. At each extremity of the table was a bench, on which sat six men, to act as jurors. Although in a fair, the court was conducted with some attention to propriety; the clerk, who sat as judge, assumed as much importance as a dignitary of a higher tribunal; and, as the crowd approached, hallooing and vociferating, with the culprit, two men, who stood at the door with maces in their hands, prevented the rush of the people: and, by order of the judge, the accuser, the offender, and two witnesses were the only persons permitted to enter. The charge was laid;��the foreign dusty-foot was accused of defrauding the accuser's wife, one Martha Fuller, of the value of half a noble.

TWO:"Your gift betokens a good feeling, young dame," said Isabella, turning to Margaret. "But why did you choose so costly a present?""Please your highness," continued the baron, "the man is exceedingly stubborn. We suspect him of having stolen our child, but nothing has as yet been able to extract a confession, though, perhaps, your highness's presence may have some effect."

TWO:After supper Rose turned towards her.

TWO:"Good afternoon," she replied, putting one hand in his, and withdrawing it almost immediately."I reckon he's done well fur himself by running away."

TWO:Suddenly she realised that Reuben had come into the dairy, and was standing beside her, a little way behind.

TWO:"D?an't cry," he said slowly��"I'm only looking in at the window."However, everyone viewed with dislike and suspicion his covetous eye cast on the Fair-place. He might have the rest of Boarzell and welcome, for no other man had any use for flints, but the Fair was sacred to them through the generations, and they gauged his sacrilegious desire to rob them of it for his own ends. He might have the Grandturzel inclosure, though all the village sympathised with the beaten Realf��beaten, they said, because he hadn't it in him to be as hard-hearted as the old Gorilla, and sacrifice his wife and children to his farm��but they would far rather see Grandturzel swallowed up than Boarzell Fair.

TWO:Boorman went out, grumbling at "th' ?ald feller's cussedness," and Reuben sat on without moving."So should I in your place."

TWO:"No; he received his freedom from my father when a boy for some juvenile service��I hardly remember what. Yet I shall never forget the look of the varlet��as if it mattered to such as he whether they were free or not! He stared for an instant at my father��the tears trembling in his eyes, and all the blood in his body, I verily believe, reddening his face, and he looked as if he would have said something; but my father and I did not care to listen, and we turned away. As for the land he has now received, I promised it him on the field of battle, and I could not retract my word.""And Rose?"
