He wished to do so, but I assured him I was not disposed to disturb you, for you must be occupied with your own affairs, and I persuaded him not to go for you," added the person with perfect self-possession. "I should thank you, Captain Battleton, for the compliment, if I were not under suspicion of being some other person.
