His
words
seemed
to
wake
Margaret
from
her
introspective
mood
.
An
agonised
spasm
swept
her
face
;
but
almost
on
the
instant
she
was
calm
.
She
almost
smiled
as
she
said
:
"
You
may
have
left
it
in
your
room
,
Father
.
Perhaps
it
has
fallen
out
of
the
pocket-book
whilst
you
were
changing
.
"
Without
a
word
we
all
hurried
into
the
next
room
through
the
open
door
between
the
study
and
the
bedroom
.
And
then
a
sudden
calm
fell
on
us
like
a
cloud
of
fear
.
There
!
on
the
table
,
lay
the
Jewel
of
Seven
Stars
,
shining
and
sparkling
with
lurid
light
,
as
though
each
of
the
seven
points
of
each
the
seven
stars
gleamed
through
blood
!

Timidly
we
each
looked
behind
us
,
and
then
at
each
other
.
Margaret
was
now
like
the
rest
of
us
.
She
had
lost
her
statuesque
calm
.
All
the
introspective
rigidity
had
gone
from
her
;
and
she
clasped
her
hands
together
till
the
knuckles
were
white
.
Without
a
word
Mr.
Trelawny
raised
the
Jewel
,
and
hurried
with
it
into
the
next
room
.
As
quietly
as
he
could
he
opened
the
door
of
the
safe
with
the
key
fastened
to
his
wrist
and
placed
the
Jewel
within
.
When
the
heavy
doors
were
closed
and
locked
he
seemed
to
breathe
more
freely
.
Somehow
this
episode
,
though
a
disturbing
one
in
many
ways
,
seemed
to
bring
us
back
to
our
old
selves
.
Since
we
had
left
London
we
had
all
been
overstrained
;
and
this
was
a
sort
of
relief
.
Another
step
in
our
strange
enterprise
had
been
effected
.

The
change
back
was
more
marked
in
Margaret
than
in
any
of
us
.
Perhaps
it
was
that
she
was
a
woman
,
whilst
we
were
men
;
perhaps
it
was
that
she
was
younger
than
the
rest
;
perhaps
both
reasons
were
effective
,
each
in
its
own
way
.
At
any
rate
the
change
was
there
,
and
I
was
happier
than
I
had
been
through
the
long
journey
.
All
her
buoyancy
,
her
tenderness
,
her
deep
feeling
seemed
to
shine
forth
once
more
;
now
and
again
as
her
father
's
eyes
rested
on
her
,
his
face
seemed
to
light
up
.
Whilst
we
waited
for
the
carts
to
arrive
,
Mr.
Trelawny
took
us
through
the
house
,
pointing
out
and
explaining
where
the
objects
which
we
had
brought
with
us
were
to
be
placed
.
In
one
respect
only
did
he
withhold
confidence
.
The
positions
of
all
those
things
which
had
connection
with
the
Great
Experiment
were
not
indicated
.
The
cases
containing
them
were
to
be
left
in
the
outer
hall
,
for
the
present
.
By
the
time
we
had
made
the
survey
,
the
carts
began
to
arrive
;
and
the
stir
and
bustle
of
the
previous
night
were
renewed
.
Mr.
