At the corner Perro, who had been keeping watch there, joined them and trotted by their side.

"And Perro is my bridesmaid.

It is to be regretted that she was for a time left sitting thus, for Perro was in the hall, and his greeting of Juanita had to be acknowledged with several violent hugs, which resulted in Juanita's mantilla getting mixed up with Perro's collar.

Perro usually walked gravely to her and stood in front of her awaiting a jest whenever she came.

Perro was not there.

Perro, the dog, had been excitedly skirmishing round, keeping clear of the horse's heels and doing little else.

He threw the stone at Perro and hit him.

She did not fall asleep again, however, and Perro continued to patter about on the terrace below as if he were going from window to window seeking an entrance.

Perro would awake Sarrion and Marcos, who must be very tired.

Perro heard her, and in obedience to her whispered injunction stood still, looking up at her and wagging his uncouth tail slowly.

"Uncle Ramon," she said, "Perro has come back ... alone.

Perro was still pattering to and fro on the terrace, giving from time to time his little plaint of uneasiness between his closed teeth.

Perro was already out of the gate in the darkness, leading the way.

It was quite easy to perceive the dark form lying there, and Perro's lean limbs shaking over it.

She was struggling with Perro.

I have brought Perro to see him.

" Perro, low-born and eager, needed restraint to keep him from the bed where his master lay, and Juanita continued to hold him while she spoke.

"You must remember," she said, "that it is owing to Perro that you are here at all.

She did not want Marcos to know that it was she who had heard Perro; she, who had insisted that something had happened to Marcos.

" Marcos and Sarrion glanced at each other, and possibly Juanita saw the glance as she held Perro back from his master.

" She forcibly ejected Perro from the room, and came back breathless and laughing.
