again, old as I am, or young as he is,
we'll try."
"What?" cried Dinass, in a bullying tone.
"Gwyn, my boy," said the Colonel, calmly, "go and unloose Grip."
The words acted like magic, and they never saw Tom Dinass again, for in
consultation with his old partner and friend it was decided that nothing
was to be gained by a prosecution. The mining was over, they were as
happy without it, and life was not long enough to punish scoundrels who
had lost already in their nefarious game.
"But, oh!" cried Gwyn, "I only wish he had stopped till I had let loose
Grip."
