Thy death has filled me with grief, The hand round which I lived so long, That I hear not of its strength, And that I saw it not depart; That joyful mouth of softest sounds, Well was it known in every land. Lion of Mull, with its white towers, Hawk of Isla, with its smooth plains, Shrewdest of all the men we knew, Whom guest ne'er left without a gift. Prince of good men, gentle, kind, Whose mien was that of a king's son, Guests came to thee from Dunanoir, Guests from the Boyne for lordly gifts. Truth it is they often came, Not oftener than gave thee joy.

In her monologue, she shifts suddenly from the third-person "she" to the first-person "I", and Rebecca (not the woman) is "held" in Rebecca's own "arms": "I held her to me," and she listens to its "heart […] beating" (73). At that point (73), Devlin approaches Rebecca and begins to enact the scene described by Rebecca at the beginning of the play, directing her to "Ask me to put my hand round your throat" as she has earlier described her "lover" as doing (73–75). The last scene of the play recalls cultural representations of Nazi soldiers selecting women and children at train stations en route to concentration camps (73–85).

The Colonel's medic Doctor White Whitby, and two of his associates, a shifty Englishman named Gideon and an imposing but silent foreigner going by the name of Benjamin Dawlish, are also present. So is one Albert Campion, garrulous and affable, but, George soon learns, unknown to either Petrie or the Colonel. After dinner, the guests notice a sinister, bejewelled dagger hanging above the fireplace; Petrie tells them a story of its ancient origins in the family, and mentions a ritual involving the dagger being passed from hand to hand round the darkened house. The guests are keen to play the game, so the servants are dismissed, the lights extinguished and the ritual begins.

A left-arm medium-pace bowler, at the beginning of his career in Christchurch club cricket Halley was described as a promising bowler who "bowls left hand round the wicket, delivers right at the end of the crease, and, moreover, breaks back a good bit". In a senior club match for Addington in December 1884, when one of the opposition batsmen was absent, he took 9 for 65 in an innings. On his first- class debut against Wellington in 1886-87 he bowled unchanged throughout both innings (partnered by a fellow Scotsman, David Dunlop) to take 5 for 33 and 4 for 19 for match figures of 37.3–12–52–9 (five-ball overs). When Canterbury played the English touring team in 1887-88 he took 6 for 50 in the first innings, including four caught and bowled.

Blackwood; pp. 183-196 Three years later, still in his teens, Freeman accepted an engagement with Leeds Clarendon Club, but was not taken up by the newly formed Yorkshire county club until 1865 under recommendation of George Parr.
