A GROUP of four men stood talking together beside the bonnet of a luxuriously appointed maroon-coloured omnibus, whose destination was indicated by the name painted on a placard at the side. The name was Marchington, which anyone who knew anything would at once realise was situated in Midshire and some hundred and twenty miles from the starting point, a large, enclosed yard not far from St. Pancras Station. At present the bus was empty, and save for one other of larger size, was the only conveyance left in the yard. It was the respective drivers and conductors of these two buses who were talking together. The larger vehicle, painted green, was due to start on her comparatively short journey in five minutes, and already the passengers had taken their seats. It was a bitterly cold day, a strong north-easterly wind indicating that an old-fashioned, snowy Christmas was likely; for it was the twenty-first of December, and most of the occupants of the larger bus were on their way to spend Christmas with their friends and relations in a not far distant county town. |
