Determined,
however, to conquer the feeling as soon as possible, Wood had given orders to
have the evening meal served there; but, notwithstanding all his good resolutions
upon his first entrance, he had much ado to maintain his self-command. Wood was unable to
discover the figure of the widow, but he recognised her dry, hacking cough, and
was about to call her down, if she could not find the key, as he imagined must be
the case, when a loud noise was heard, as though a chest, or some weighty
substance, had fallen upon the floor. She had gained
respect all about town with news of her fine marriage,
and her reputation as a beauty was expanding. But she
perceived that to tell Manning of her Ramage adventures as they had happened
would be like tarring figures upon a water-color. Taking advantage of his embarrassed
position, Jonathan and his assistant rushed upon him, and disarmed him.
