Nanty wandered down a road which ran from the main highway to the little fenland boroughs of the north. He had read the names on the first milestone out of Fenny Horton -- Ely, Downham, King's Lynn; that was the road Bob and Jock had travelled the night before, and now by the grace of God they should have reached their journey's end. He had the day before him with only one duty to fulfill, and he deliberately sauntered to quiet his nerves.
From: John Buchan, The Free Fishers, 1934.
