If
they
had
belonged
to
a
large
one
they
d
have
shown
less
nervousness
and
more
curiosity
,
"
he
maintained
.
"
But
if
the
Beadley
lot
are
round
here
,
we
ought
to
be
able
to
find
them
somehow
,
"
He
put
it
to
the
fair
man
:
"
Look
here
,
suppose
we
come
along
with
you
?
We
can
do
our
whack
,
and
when
we
do
find
them
it
will
make
things
easier
for
all
of
us
.
"
The
three
of
them
looked
questioningly
at
one
another
and
then
nodded
.
"
AM
right
.
Give
us
a
hand
with
the
Loading
,
and
we
ll
be
getting
along
,
"
the
man
agreed
.

By
the
look
of
Charcott
Old
House
,
it
had
once
been
a
for
-
died
manor
.
Refortification
Was
now
under
way
.
At
some
time
in
the
past
the
encircling
moat
had
been
drained
.
Stephen
,
however
,
was
of
the
opinion
tat
he
had
successfully
ruined
the
drainage
system
so
that
it
would
DII
up
again
by
degrees
.
It
was
his
plan
to
blow
out
such
parts
as
bad
been
filled
in
,
and
thus
complete
the
reencirclement
.
Our
news
,
suggesting
that
this
might
not
be
necessary
,
induced
a
slight
wistfulness
in
him
,
and
a
look
of
disappointment
.
The
stone
walls
of
the
house
were
thick
.
At
least
three
of
the
windows
in
the
front
displayed
machine
guns
,
and
he
pointed
out
two
more
mounted
on
the
roof
.
Inside
the
main
door
was
stacked
a
smell
arsenal
of
mortars
and
bombs
,
and
,
as
he
proudly
pointed
out
,
several
flame
throwers
.
"
We
found
an
arms
depot
,
"
be
explained
,
"
and
spent
a
day
getting
this
lot
together
.
"
As
I
looked
over
the
stuff
I
realized
for
the
first
time
that
the
catastrophe
,
by
its
very
thoroughness
,
had
been
more
merciful
than
the
things
that
would
have
followed
a
slightly
lesser
disaster
.
Had
10
or
15
per
cent
of
the
population
remained
unharmed
,
it
was
very
likely
that
little
communities
like
this
would
indeed
have
found
themselves
fighting
off
starving
gangs
in
order
to
preserve
their
own
lives
.
As
things
were
,
however
,
Stephen
had
probably
made
his
warlike
preparations
in
vain
.

But
there
was
one
appliance
that
could
he
put
to
good
use
.
I
pointed
to
the
flame
throwers
.
"
Those
might
be
handy
for
triffids
,
"
I
said
.
He
grinned
.
