God’s teeth! What was taking them so long? He exchanged a look of concern with the two men who sat on horses beside him. Something was wrong. He could feel it in his bones.
After what seemed like hours, his men appeared from the barn and looked across the yard. They held up empty hands as they shrugged their shoulders and shook their heads. Damnation! This was not good, not good at all. He let out a heavy sigh and hung his head.
’Twasn’t exactly how he had planned it, but at least now he had the opportunity to bash in the skulls of the three men inside the cottage. The idea of giving the sons of whores their due brought a pleasant tingling sensation to his belly. The night would not be wasted, treasures or no.

[JT1]This a little complicated, but I’ll try to explain why I deleted the commas. If Maggy had only one son and his name was Ian, you would write “her son, Ian, …” Because she has several sons, you write “her son Ian”
When you set the name off with commas, it indicates she has only one son and his name is Ian. When you do not set the name off with commas, it indicates she has more than one son and the one of which your are speaking is Ian. Clear as mud?
