Of these, by fur the most\nregular attendant was Christabel.\nPunctually at five o'clock the lecturer\nwould take his stand at thc rostrum,\nand just as surely as be cleared his\nthroat to commence Christabel would\nsilently appear in her place and automatically open her notel a k ready to\ntake down his first word.\nThere was nothing striking about\nChristabel's appearance.
