The stopped-clock feeling was thick about him as he realized that this was one of the voices he had heard on that night of the first magic--the voice that had said, "He is more yours than mine." The light the nurse carried gleamed and disappeared up the second flight of stairs. Dickie followed. He had to follow. He could not be left out of this, the most mysterious of all the happenings that had so wonderfully come to him. He saw, when he reached the upper landing, that the others were by the window, and that the window was open. A keen wind rushed through it, and by the blown candle's light he could see snowflakes whirled into the house through the window's dark, star-studded square. There was whispering going on. He heard her words, "Here. So! Jump." And then a little figure--Edred it must be; no, Elfrida--climbed up on to the window-ledge. And jumped out.
