Chapter XI
LANDLESS BECOMES A CONSPIRATOR As Landless entered the hut Godwyn looked up with a pleased smile from the net he was mending. The two men had not seen each other since the night upon which Landless had been brought to the hut by the Muggletonian. Twice had Landless laid his plans for a second visit, only to be circumvented each time by the watchfulness of the overseer. The smile died from Godwyn's face as he observed his visitor more closely. "What is it?" he asked quickly.
