“Could
not
you—
could
not
you
take
Miss
Matty
round
by
Headingley
Causeway?—
the
pavement
in
Darkness
Lane
jolts
so,
and
she
is
not
very
strong.”
A
smothered
voice
was
heard
from
the
inside
of
the
chair—
“Oh!
pray
go
on!
What
is
the
matter?
What
is
the
matter?
I
will
give
you
sixpence
more
to
go
on
very
fast;
pray
don’t
stop
here.”
“And
I’ll
give
you
a
shilling,”
said
Miss
Pole,
with
tremulous
dignity,
“if
you’ll
go
by
Headingley
Causeway.”
The
two
men
grunted
acquiescence
and
took
up
the
chair,
and
went
along
the
causeway,
which
certainly
answered
Miss
Pole’s
kind
purpose
of
saving
Miss
Matty’s
bones;
for
it
was
covered
with
soft,
thick
mud,
and
even
a
fall
there
would
have
been
easy
till
the
getting-up
came,
when
there
might
have
been
some
difficulty
in
extrication.
