"Poor old chap," said I. I sympathized with him in the loss of his
island.
"Here's the house, you see," said Mason, turning to the map, and
dismissing the sorrows of the old lord of Neopalia. "About the middle
of the island, nearly a thousand feet above the sea. I'm afraid it's a
tumble-down old place, and will swallow a lot of money without looking
much better for the dose. To put it into repair for the reception of

safer. Well, I'm sure I hope you'll settle in comfortably."
"Oh, I shall be all right. I know the Greeks very well, you know; been
