“My name is Anna Pellissier,
sometimes called Annabel. The
Master of the Mint, with whom the Jacobite captain had often had transactions
before, vouched for their being men of honour and loyalty; and Kneebone was so
well satisfied with his representations, that he at once closed the matter by
administering to the applicants the oath of allegiance and fidelity to King James
the Third, and several other oaths besides, all of which those gentlemen took
with as little hesitation as the sum of money, afterwards tendered, to make the
compact binding. A maidservant held the
front door open. But there was nothing in her bearing that a
passer-by would have noted, to tell of the excitement that possessed her. She spoke slowly. Poor little one. Remote little Ann Veronica! She would never know the heart of that child
again! That child had loved fairy princes with velvet suits and golden locks, and
she was in love with a real man named Capes, with little gleams of gold on his
cheek and a pleasant voice and firm and shapely hands.
