From the text:
“No, no, sir; no, not against you!” It was a woman’s voice, and Mrs. Barrymore, paler and more horror-struck than her husband, was standing at the door. Her bulky figure in a shawl and skirt might have been comic were it not for the intensity of feeling upon her face.
“We have to go, Eliza. This is the end of it. You can pack our things,” said the butler.
The Barrymores would rather leave Baskerville Hall than reveal the presence of Mrs. Barrymore's brother, a convict, hiding in the moor.
