d darted forward with an oath, but it was too
late--horse and rider were already far beyond his reach.

Doctor Morton went straight to Mr. Bellairs' office. He felt it needful
to get rid, in some way, of his new irritation against Clarkson, but
some consciousness of being for the moment urged on by personal
dislike, made him say nothing of their encounter. He merely satisfied
himself that his brother-in-law, considerably piqued by the implied
blame which had been thrown upon his guardianship, was now doing all
that was possible to satisfy his eagerness.

After all these affairs it was late when he reached home. He and Bella
were going to dine out, and she was waiting impatiently for him when he
finished his day's work and went in to dress. He had no time to talk to
her then, and kept what he had to say for their drive; but as they drove
along, it occurred to him that if he told her of his meeting with
Clarkson she would worry herself, and perhaps him also, so he finally
kept it to himself altogether, and as his ill-humour subsided it passed
out of his mind.
