17090 | If it were true that I followed such tactics, I ask, would it have been possible to make of such men life- long companions? |
17090 | It may be asked: How is it consistent with the universal diffusion of these blessings that vast sums of money should be in single hands? |

61498 | He said unlimited power, did n''t he? 61498 How much money have we?" |
61498 | If you''re so damn smart, why ai n''t you rich? |
61498 | If you''re so smart, why do n''t you make some money yourself? |

61498 | Your proposition to have me lend you enough to get your machines built is out-- the machines might flop, then where''d I be? |
44135 | I asked Witte:''Do you think, Sergei Yulyevitch, that the Tsar would avail himself of a possible opportunity of meeting the Kaiser?'' 44135 What would it profit you to risk a naval battle on the high seas? |
44135 | And what are the results? |
44135 | And what does it profit us if we do get it? |
44135 | Are you going to make them fight against a numerically superior enemy? |
44135 | But what are you going to do? |
44135 | But what have we done instead? |
44135 | But who was to exercise such influence on the Kaiser? |
44135 | Could it be that it was intended to intimidate the British Government? |

44135 | What would happen if the latter raised any counter- claims of their own, or if they were dissatisfied with the percentage allotted to them? |
4020 | A splendid group of men, are they not? |
4020 | A successor? |
4020 | Abominable, is it not? |
4020 | Across the dinner table? |
4020 | After all, what inducement have they? |
4020 | All of it? |
4020 | And I presume,said the rector, taking a devout sip of the unfinished soda,"that he is a man of immense wealth?" |
4020 | And are they ferocious? |
4020 | And could you not get three or four men to come and address it so as to stir us up? |
4020 | And half a million last week, was n''t it? |
4020 | And he has accepted the call? |
4020 | And is there game there? |
4020 | And of great philanthropy? |
4020 | And the salary? |
4020 | And what did she say to that? |
4020 | And what do you define as_ pure_ doctrine? |
4020 | And what does Dr. Dumfarthing himself say to it? |
4020 | And who''s that tall chap standing beside her? |
4020 | And you would not say that the percentage of sodium bicarbonate was too great for the ordinary taste? |
4020 | And-- quite frankly-- not too much hydrogen? |
4020 | Are they deastralized? |
4020 | Are they old criminals? |
4020 | Are you coming to the Browning Club this morning? 4020 Badly made up?" |
4020 | But what about the question of doctrine, of belief? |
4020 | But what were you going to say? |
4020 | But when? 4020 By Jove,"said the Duke, turning to tap the leaf of a rubber tree with his finger,"that fellow''s a Nigerian, is n''t he?" |
4020 | Can we meet them? |
4020 | Can you rely on his word? |
4020 | Could he have any, do you suppose? |
4020 | Could n''t you try to reastralize them? |
4020 | Dear little fellow, is n''t he? |
4020 | Did he hear? |
4020 | Did n''t you find him pretty solemn? |
4020 | Did you blow them up yourself? |
4020 | Did you get any? |
4020 | Do n''t you really? |
4020 | Do n''t you think,said Mr. Newberry,"I speak as a practical man, that we ought to do something to get the newspapers with us?" |
4020 | Do what? |
4020 | Do you mean to say,said Mr. Fyshe, speaking very slowly,"that there is no dinner?" |
4020 | Do you not think perhaps that some of the shortcoming lies with yourself? |
4020 | Do you really not know? |
4020 | Do you suppose I could get them to get any? |
4020 | Do you think it necessary to_ write_ it? |
4020 | Does he make any conditions? |
4020 | Does he stay long? |
4020 | Does n''t it? |
4020 | Eh? 4020 Eh?" |
4020 | For after all,she said,"if it was not Buddha, who was it?" |
4020 | For camping? |
4020 | For what time shall I order dinner? |
4020 | Gentlemen,he said,"will you accept this as a compromise? |
4020 | Good evening, Mr. Mayor,echoed Mr. Dick Overend, also rubbing his hands;"warm evening, is it not?" |
4020 | Good? |
4020 | Has he got the financial basis arranged then? |
4020 | Has it ever been done before? |
4020 | He ca n''t, eh? |
4020 | His financial position? |
4020 | How did it happen? |
4020 | How do you manage to get people to talk about it? 4020 How far will he go with us?" |
4020 | How_ does_ he do it? |
4020 | I hardly know,said Mr. Fyshe,"I imagine so"; and he added,"You''ve been in Nigeria, Duke?" |
4020 | I say,he said,"are you going away?" |
4020 | I say,said Mr. Spillikins, straining his short sight to the uttermost,"what perfectly wonderful golden hair, eh?" |
4020 | I shall be delighted,said Miss Snagg,"but I''m afraid there''s hardly time to write them before we begin, is there?" |
4020 | I wonder,called Mrs. Buncomhearst from the chair,"if some lady would be good enough to write minutes? |
4020 | I''ve been thinking of it,said Mr. Furlong senior,"I suppose it''s feasible?" |
4020 | In fact, Newberry, to speak very frankly, I begin to ask myself, Is Furlong the man for the post? |
4020 | Inefficient? |
4020 | Is Rasselyer- Brown with us? |
4020 | Is he Scotch? |
4020 | Is he better? |
4020 | Is he dead? |
4020 | Is he here for pleasure? |
4020 | Is he married? |
4020 | Is his power of speech gone? |
4020 | Is it necessary to go into that? |
4020 | Is it not possible that as a preacher you fail somewhat, do not, as it were, deal sufficiently with fundamental things as others do? 4020 Is it not?" |
4020 | Is n''t it? |
4020 | Is that carried? |
4020 | Is that in Maine? |
4020 | Is there any more of that jelly? |
4020 | Just what does that mean? |
4020 | Might it not be better simply to buy up the editorial staff? |
4020 | Now tell me very truthfully,he said,"is there too much carbon in it?" |
4020 | Now what special objects or purposes shall I indicate? |
4020 | Oh, you mean commercially? 4020 Ought n''t we to go up to the house?" |
4020 | Perfectly plain, is n''t it? |
4020 | Personally a charming fellow,went on Mr. Fyshe;"but is he, all said and done, quite the man to conduct a church? |
4020 | Say, dad,drawls Bob,"could n''t we all go to the ball game?" |
4020 | Says his father is buried there, eh? 4020 Take it out? |
4020 | The Duke arrived this morning, did he not? |
4020 | The difference between a council and a board? |
4020 | Think so? |
4020 | Very sorry, sir,said the waiter,"shall I take it out?" |
4020 | Well, well,said Mr. Newberry,"and will Dr. McTeague also resume his philosophical lectures at the university?" |
4020 | Well, what''s wrong with him? |
4020 | Well,said Mr. Newberry,"what about organization and officers?" |
4020 | Well,said the wife of the Wizard as her husband finished looking through the reports,"how are things this morning? |
4020 | Were you at St. Osoph''s Church on Sunday morning? 4020 What does the doctor say is wrong with Fred?" |
4020 | What does wah mean? |
4020 | What happened to those first samples? 4020 What is Mr. Dumfarthing getting where he is?" |
4020 | What is it? |
4020 | What is the stuff, anyway? |
4020 | What the devil do you mean,he said,"by serving asparagus half- cold?" |
4020 | What will he do now? |
4020 | What''s that after his name? |
4020 | What''s wrong with him? |
4020 | What''s wrong with_ him_? |
4020 | What? |
4020 | What_ would_ you have done? |
4020 | Where does it get its authority? |
4020 | Who would these be? |
4020 | Who? |
4020 | Whose funeral is that? |
4020 | Why do n''t you go down to Nagahakett on the Atlantic? |
4020 | Why last night? |
4020 | Why not? |
4020 | Why, do n''t you see what''s happened? |
4020 | Will it hold water? |
4020 | Would it be all right to telephone down to the office, or do you think it would be better to ring? |
4020 | Yes, did n''t you know? |
4020 | You and Philippa used to have it at half- past seven, did you not? 4020 You are agreed, then, on the Reverend Uttermust Dumfarthing?" |
4020 | You are quite sure,persisted Mr. Newberry,"about the governor and the others you mentioned?" |
4020 | You are sure of this, are you? |
4020 | You do n''t mind my telling you all about this Miss Philippa? |
4020 | You do n''t,said Tomlinson the Wizard in a hesitating tone as he looked at the smooth grass of the campus,"I suppose, raise anything on it?" |
4020 | You had thought, had you not, of offering it to the city? |
4020 | You have actually seen the members of the legislature? |
4020 | You have heard nothing? |
4020 | You have heard our sad news, I suppose? |
4020 | You would hardly, I think,said Mr. Furlong, with a quiet smile,"compare the Standard Oil Company to a church?" |
4020 | _ Salted_ them on me? |
4020 | ''No,''I answered,''but will you at five?'' |
4020 | ''Take your own case,''I said to him,''how is it that you, a coal man, are not helping the city in this matter? |
4020 | *****"Are you inviting anyone else tonight?" |
4020 | *****"Do you think they''ll go into it?" |
4020 | *****"How''s Fred?" |
4020 | *****"Is no one else coming then?" |
4020 | *****"Is that legal, do you suppose?" |
4020 | *****"Well,"said Dr. Boomer, after Tomlinson had left the university,"what do you make of him?" |
4020 | *****"What is he doing?" |
4020 | A day or two later Mr. Spillikins was saying,"I think Mrs. Everleigh must have had great sorrow, do n''t you? |
4020 | After all, thirty cents is n''t much, eh what? |
4020 | And at this tea Captain Cormorant said, among other things,"Did he kick up rough at all when you told him about the money?" |
4020 | And here again it appeared that the crying need of the moment was for someone to come to the university and say,"Gentlemen, what can I do for you?" |
4020 | And then, a voice called from the drawing- room within, in a measured and assured tone,"Peter, darling, where are you?" |
4020 | And when presently a tall waiter in dress- clothes appeared, and said,"Jelly? |
4020 | Are these powers conferred on you by the state legislature or by some higher authority?" |
4020 | Are they any better?" |
4020 | Are you aware, Edward, that you are losing money on your Foreign Missions Account?" |
4020 | Belstairs?" |
4020 | Boomer?" |
4020 | But how? |
4020 | But stop a bit,"he continued, checking himself;"what''s this? |
4020 | But suppose we go and dress? |
4020 | But what can I do? |
4020 | But what is the difference between a council and a board?" |
4020 | But when a girl can work out trigonometry at sight, what use can she possibly have for marriage? |
4020 | But why should you? |
4020 | Could it be that by some neglect in the preparations, the substitution perhaps of the wrong brandy, the astralization could not be effected? |
4020 | Could n''t we hold a meeting of our own, all our own, to help the league along?" |
4020 | Could you?" |
4020 | Do n''t you see, my boy, that these things are debits? |
4020 | Do n''t you see? |
4020 | Do n''t you think that rather too late?" |
4020 | Doc.?" |
4020 | Dumfarthing?" |
4020 | Had Mr. Fyshe, who knew nothing of art, expressed his real thought, he would have said,"Show me your which?" |
4020 | Has anybody anything to say?" |
4020 | He followed it usually just before breakfast with a bracer-- and what wiser precaution can a businessman take than to brace his breakfast? |
4020 | How much do you want?" |
4020 | I am only asking you, is it worth it? |
4020 | I merely wish to show you certain-- shall I say certain opportunities that present themselves for the disposal of our funds? |
4020 | I think she must have guessed, in a way, do n''t you, what I was going to say? |
4020 | I thought that a pretty good sign, was n''t it? |
4020 | If a man with a broad basis of popular support like that was proposing to entertain a duke, surely there could be no doubt about his motives? |
4020 | If anyone were to come to me and say,''Boomer, can you put your hand for me on a first- class botanist?'' |
4020 | In short, when crystallized in dodecahedrons--""Is it any good?" |
4020 | Is it a single corporate body?" |
4020 | Is it worth it?" |
4020 | Is that agreed?" |
4020 | Is that agreed?" |
4020 | Is that all you have with you?" |
4020 | Is that carried? |
4020 | It printed a coupon which said,"Are you out for a clean city? |
4020 | May I just run in and use your telephone? |
4020 | McSkwirt?" |
4020 | Miss Snagg, I wonder if you would be kind enough to write minutes? |
4020 | Mr. Rasselyer- Brown, of course, began the day with an eye- opener-- and after all, what alert man does not wish his eyes well open in the morning? |
4020 | No doubt you felt this yourself?" |
4020 | Now why do n''t you go for a month or two to some quiet place, where you will simply_ do nothing?_"( She never, as he knew, did anything, anyway.) |
4020 | Now,''I said, for I wanted to test the fellow,''tell me what that means?'' |
4020 | Of course his game is clear enough?" |
4020 | Osoph''s?" |
4020 | Pretty big sale, eh, for a beginner like me? |
4020 | Prunes? |
4020 | Put him, for instance, beside Mr. Sikleigh Snoop, the sex- poet, and where was he? |
4020 | So I think that looks pretty good, do n''t you?" |
4020 | So what better man to meet a duke than an archaeological president? |
4020 | Spiff?" |
4020 | That is what you''ve come for, is it not?" |
4020 | The other day, or at least about two months ago, at one of the Yahi- Bahi meetings-- you were not in that, were you?" |
4020 | The question arises, what disposition are we to make of our accumulating funds?" |
4020 | The_ Plutorian Times_ printed a dotted coupon on the corner of its front sheet with the words,"Are you in favour of Clean Government? |
4020 | Tomlinson, tell me what all that means?'' |
4020 | Tomlinson?" |
4020 | Two minutes later Mr. Fyshe was saying into the telephone,"Oh, is that you, Boulder? |
4020 | Uttermust Dumfarthing"Well, then, gentlemen, I think we have all agreed upon our man?" |
4020 | What did it bring them? |
4020 | What do you think he wants to do?" |
4020 | What do you think?" |
4020 | What is it? |
4020 | What more natural, therefore, than that Mr. Lucullus Fyshe, before serving the soda to the Duke, should try it on somebody else? |
4020 | What visions, they asked, could one but read them, must lie behind the quiet, dreaming eyes of that inscrutable face? |
4020 | When that bunch got interested and planned to float the company? |
4020 | Who did they know that would take it? |
4020 | Why do n''t you supply the city?'' |
4020 | Why not go to those lawyers that manage things for the company and get them to arrange it all for you with the college?" |
4020 | Why? |
4020 | Yahi- Bahi?" |
4020 | Yes, sir, immediately, sir; would you like, sir, Maraschino, sir, or Portovino, sir?" |
4020 | You ca n''t run a church that way, can you?" |
4020 | You have n''t? |
4020 | You would n''t let a chap carry round your slippers unless you knew him pretty well, would you, Miss Philippa?" |
4020 | _ Nihil humunum alienum_, eh?" |
4020 | and appealed to Mr. Tomlinson as to whether any rational man nowadays cared what Ammianus thought? |
4020 | asked Mr. Fyshe of the university president,"will the newspapers be with us?" |
4020 | be better? |
4020 | but we shall see you at the musicale this afternoon, shall we not?" |
4020 | but,"Have you seen his daughter? |
4020 | eh? |
4020 | he said a day later,"Mrs. Everleigh''s an awfully fine woman, is n''t she? |
4020 | or at the opera,"Old man, do n''t let her see you looking, but do you see that lovely girl in the box opposite?" |
4020 | repeated Tomlinson,"I suppose he ai n''t quite up to the mark in some ways, eh?" |
4020 | said Mr. Fyshe,"do you think that quite fair to the bondholders? |
4020 | said Mr. Spillikins;"it must be dangerous work eh? |
4020 | said the Wizard;"is he sick?" |
4020 | said the rector''s sister, as they moved off again,"did n''t you know? |
4020 | what a fine- looking little chap, eh? |
4020 | what?" |
4020 | who''s that awfully good- looking woman getting out of the motor?" |
4020 | you want a lot, do n''t you? |
38472 | Alibi? |
38472 | And after that do you remember the race for two- year- olds, and my theory that in an untried field the odds were all against the favorites winning? 38472 And what sized lots,"he asked,"are you going to trade in?" |
38472 | And what was the first requisite for their plan? 38472 And what was the other paper he spoke of?" |
38472 | And wheat,queried Brooks,"will go up?" |
38472 | Anything else? |
38472 | Are you all right? |
38472 | Are you sure you have the right name? |
38472 | Before you leave? |
38472 | Blagden,he gasped,"what can we do?" |
38472 | Blagden,said Mills solemnly,"do you care to know my genuine, sincere opinion of life in general?" |
38472 | But how do I know,he objected,"when you will be going out there again?" |
38472 | But how does she know,queried Mills,"that there is any secret? |
38472 | But is it right,asked Decency,"to send someone else where you would not venture yourself?" |
38472 | But why so eager about money? |
38472 | Can you grasp it? 38472 Charming?" |
38472 | Could I forget? 38472 Did you have any trouble getting away?" |
38472 | Did you tell me in the cafà © you had a clew? |
38472 | Do n''t you see? 38472 Do you deny that you would like to marry Miss Hamilton?" |
38472 | Do you know Billy? |
38472 | Forgotten them? |
38472 | Good,was his brief comment; then added in a tone that was half a statement, half a query,"You''re not a professional chauffeur?" |
38472 | Got a cigarette? |
38472 | Have n''t you any way of finding out? |
38472 | Have you made up your mind to that? |
38472 | How do you know it is n''t? |
38472 | How far will cotton decline? |
38472 | How''s Liverpool? |
38472 | Hullo, Jim,he hailed,"how are you? |
38472 | I hope so,said Mills somewhat dubiously,"but ought n''t we to wait a while longer? |
38472 | If he seemed to be a pretty smooth proposition, why do n''t you go in with him? 38472 If it''s necessary to see you again,"whispered Blagden,"what is your boat, and when does she sail?" |
38472 | If you were only allowed to play every week or two, and in a very limited way, and under the direction of another person, would that satisfy you? 38472 Is he better?" |
38472 | Is n''t that right, boys? |
38472 | Is there any hope? |
38472 | Mr. Bellingham,he asked earnestly,"do you imagine, sir, that this is true?" |
38472 | Now who the dickens,he wondered,"can that be? |
38472 | Now,she said,"is n''t it wonderful?" |
38472 | Oh, pretty good,the chubby one answered, and pushing the bill of fare toward Atherton, he added,"Here, what will you have? |
38472 | Oh, thanks,retorted Mills with unwonted asperity,"why do n''t you try it yourself? |
38472 | Oh, was n''t it splendid? |
38472 | Oh, well,Blagden retorted,"what do you expect? |
38472 | One moment, Cyrus,he said courteously,"may I interrupt you?" |
38472 | Prevented me from losing? |
38472 | Quit? |
38472 | Satisfactory references? |
38472 | Shall I remain here, sir? |
38472 | Shall we tell him, Tubby? |
38472 | So you know her? |
38472 | That sounds fine,Mills agreed,"but what kind of adventures are we going to have?" |
38472 | The others will be here? |
38472 | The question is,she said slowly,"what can you do best?" |
38472 | Then you know,he said at length,"what the burglary was for?" |
38472 | Then you think they''ll rally? |
38472 | Then you''ll do it? |
38472 | Was it in stocks? |
38472 | Well, Jock,asked Bellingham,"how did Mr. Hamilton come out with Mr. McKay? |
38472 | Well, well,Blagden greeted him,"how goes it, old scout?" |
38472 | Well, what do you know? |
38472 | Well,asked Mr. Hamilton,"how do you find him?" |
38472 | Well,he queried,"what seems to be the big idea?" |
38472 | Well,she queried,"do you believe me now?" |
38472 | What could you have done? |
38472 | What did he call it? 38472 What do you mean by that?" |
38472 | What do you think of''em? |
38472 | What the devil''s happened? |
38472 | What the hell is this? |
38472 | What''s a good stock to sell? |
38472 | What''s up? |
38472 | Where did you say you were going to trade? |
38472 | Where''s this friend of yours? 38472 Who is it?" |
38472 | Would you be kind enough, Marshall,he asked,"to read to us once more the statement showing our profits for the year?" |
38472 | You need hardly have asked me that? |
38472 | You saw it? |
38472 | You''re a good driver? |
38472 | You''re not forgetting our golf? |
38472 | ''The United Brotherhood of Down and Outs''? |
38472 | ''The holy of holies''?" |
38472 | After all we''ve been through? |
38472 | Again his hearers signified assent, and Bellingham, lowering his voice, continued,"Then what is the answer? |
38472 | And after a pause, he added,"How could this man have known? |
38472 | And are you happy?" |
38472 | And at length, summoning all his courage, he asked,"If I should ask you a truthful question, would you give me a truthful answer?" |
38472 | And besides, what does he gain? |
38472 | And every so often he will say,''Would you like some pin money?'' |
38472 | And how has Fortune treated you? |
38472 | And if they were n''t on the links, where were they? |
38472 | And is he the only one, or will others come to tempt their destiny?" |
38472 | And the second is, no matter where they were, what on earth were they doing?" |
38472 | And then without wasting words, he added,"Why? |
38472 | And what in the world is he after? |
38472 | And with a deep- drawn breath she added imploringly,"Oh, is n''t there anything that you can do?" |
38472 | And yet, reasoning from what we know, is n''t this the very time to be suspicious?" |
38472 | Any adventure?" |
38472 | Anything doing?" |
38472 | Are we to understand that in the event of a decline in the market, you stand ready to deposit additional sums as we may require them?" |
38472 | Are you at liberty this evening?" |
38472 | Are you going up to him to ask the time of day, and then will you grab it and run? |
38472 | Are you long or short?" |
38472 | Are you willing to do that?" |
38472 | As long as I keep my ten point margin good, why should you worry?" |
38472 | At once he stepped forward, and asked,"Beg pardon, but may I help you?" |
38472 | Atherton?" |
38472 | But all I''m wondering is, how much lower will they go? |
38472 | But for what purpose had he climbed the tree? |
38472 | But how is all this going to make us rich? |
38472 | But how, at this hour of the morning, was he to make his way to Bellingham''s room? |
38472 | But on the level, Mr. Bellingham, do n''t it beat hell? |
38472 | But the answer is: What''s the use? |
38472 | But what''s the answer? |
38472 | But why do you say that you''desire more?'' |
38472 | By cable? |
38472 | By the way, what''s your name?" |
38472 | Can you make anything out of his figures?" |
38472 | Could the man be a burglar, with a confederate working in the house? |
38472 | Did the whole world know his secret? |
38472 | Do I make myself clear?" |
38472 | Do n''t you understand? |
38472 | Do you believe in God?" |
38472 | Do you believe it?" |
38472 | Do you care for him?" |
38472 | Do you fellows believe it, or do n''t you?" |
38472 | Do you get the idea?" |
38472 | Do you know her, Atherton?" |
38472 | Do you mind letting me tell you what they are?" |
38472 | Do you remember that?" |
38472 | Do you talk about a war between a boa- constrictor and a rabbit?" |
38472 | Do you want this one?" |
38472 | Do you want to drive me there?" |
38472 | Does he make his profits in the same way that a conjuror extracts rabbits from a hat?" |
38472 | Does it appear to be a kind of magic? |
38472 | Easy? |
38472 | For what purpose, and to whom? |
38472 | Gentleman friend? |
38472 | Had you forgotten?" |
38472 | Has it occurred to your pure and youthful mind that the events of last night may have some bearing oh the situation?" |
38472 | Have we been temperance advocates, preachers of the Gospel, haters of women? |
38472 | Have you any real reason for thinking the market is n''t going up?" |
38472 | Have you lived as you planned to live?" |
38472 | Honestly now, can you beat it?" |
38472 | How about it, Tubby; you would n''t do that?" |
38472 | How about that?" |
38472 | How about you, Tubby? |
38472 | How are we going to get our money back?" |
38472 | How can they connect us with him?" |
38472 | How did you get along with the lovely lady? |
38472 | How do you account for that?" |
38472 | How had he come to play this game? |
38472 | How had he dared, he wondered-- how did any of them dare-- to speculate in stocks? |
38472 | How is it with you?" |
38472 | How long, he wondered, had he been dreaming? |
38472 | How much longer do you stay as chauffeur?" |
38472 | How on earth does he stand it? |
38472 | How then will they communicate? |
38472 | I should like nothing so much as a fresh start, but can I get it? |
38472 | I suppose he won, did n''t he?" |
38472 | If I had met you six months ago, where would I be to- day? |
38472 | If a good God ruled the world, why did he implant these fierce desires in the breasts of his children? |
38472 | If she''s got such a good thing-- the tips, I mean, not the gentleman friend-- why is n''t she satisfied? |
38472 | If we knew just what was going to happen to us, every day of our lives, where would the fun be? |
38472 | In spite of himself, Mills felt as if the blood had ceased flowing in his veins, and his voice sounded thick and strained as he cried,"What''s this? |
38472 | In the face of such a showing, do you maintain with seriousness that we may be termed ultra- conservative?" |
38472 | In what possible way, after the strict precaution of years, had he and his associates thus betrayed themselves, or been betrayed? |
38472 | Is Miss Hamilton engaged to be married, or anything like that?" |
38472 | Is he rich?" |
38472 | Is n''t that perfect? |
38472 | Is n''t that so?" |
38472 | Is n''t that stretching things beyond all reason?" |
38472 | Is n''t that the long and short of it?" |
38472 | Is n''t there some way, Blagden, by which I could go along the roofs and down by some other exit?" |
38472 | Is she really so charming?" |
38472 | Mr. McKay keeps his clubs in the machine, does n''t he?" |
38472 | Mr. McKay on the links?" |
38472 | Murderers, are n''t we? |
38472 | No hard feeling, Blagden?" |
38472 | Nolan rose at once, and as soon as they were safely out of earshot, Bellingham continued,"Look here, Jim, do you want to make some easy money?" |
38472 | Now then, you fat guzzler, is n''t that fair?" |
38472 | Now what is the sense in that? |
38472 | Of course he''s a nervous wreck now, but who would n''t be? |
38472 | Oh, and by the way,"he added, as the butler rose to go,"would you mind telephoning Saunders to saddle the bay mare? |
38472 | Or is that too severe?" |
38472 | See what''s happened to him now; do you suppose either of us is going to run into anything like that?" |
38472 | Shall I tell him that you are here?" |
38472 | So I ask you again, why the devil are you so afraid of his being harmed?" |
38472 | So on the whole, Atherton, do n''t you think you''d better withdraw your opposition, and let us go ahead?" |
38472 | So what the devil does it all mean, anyway?" |
38472 | Some fool joke?" |
38472 | Suppose a hundred men start speculating on the same day? |
38472 | Surely not the Law?" |
38472 | Telegraph? |
38472 | Telephone? |
38472 | That fortunes are made over night? |
38472 | That settles number one; what''s number two?" |
38472 | That''s conservative, is n''t it?" |
38472 | That''s what the girl told me; do n''t you remember? |
38472 | The lovely lady is interested in stocks and she has a-- what is the technical word in such cases-- friend, is n''t it? |
38472 | The point is: What are we going to do next? |
38472 | Then Atherton asked, still unbelievingly,"But why does she confide in you? |
38472 | Then Blagden cried, triumphantly,"Did n''t I tell you fellows the truth? |
38472 | Then comes the question: Are they going to win? |
38472 | Then why, he reflected, should a person wish to climb a tree at this time of night? |
38472 | Then, impelled by mere curiosity, he added,"Which is it this time, Martin? |
38472 | Then, turning to Atherton, he asked,"How about you? |
38472 | Then, yielding to a fleeting impulse, he added,"Where are you keeping the car now? |
38472 | There was silence for a moment; then Blagden continued earnestly,"Tubby, if we are right, can you imagine what this is going to mean? |
38472 | There''s no double cross to this? |
38472 | To keep some kind of a watch, or lookout? |
38472 | To signal? |
38472 | Under such conditions, would you use bait?" |
38472 | Was his whole life an open book? |
38472 | Was it a real adventure?" |
38472 | Was it fair? |
38472 | We might have the knowledge but would we dare to use it?" |
38472 | Were n''t you scared?" |
38472 | What are we going to do? |
38472 | What are we then? |
38472 | What day is this? |
38472 | What did they know of real conditions throughout the world? |
38472 | What do you say, Atherton? |
38472 | What do you say, Tubby? |
38472 | What do you say?" |
38472 | What do you suppose that means?" |
38472 | What does the Bible say? |
38472 | What handicap does Mr. Bellingham give you now?" |
38472 | What on earth shall I do? |
38472 | What shall we call ourselves? |
38472 | What''s he going to be doing? |
38472 | What''s his life to you? |
38472 | What''s that?" |
38472 | What''s wrong?" |
38472 | What''s your opinion?" |
38472 | When shall we meet again?" |
38472 | Where can I get hold of you if I want you? |
38472 | Where does it come from?" |
38472 | Where is Martin?" |
38472 | Where would be the romance, the thrill? |
38472 | Who is this owner? |
38472 | Whom do you designate as this owner of the stream? |
38472 | Why did he change a world of joy and beauty into a hell of discontent? |
38472 | Why did n''t you sell me a gold brick and be done with it? |
38472 | Why did she pick out the one impossible story in the world? |
38472 | Why do you ask?" |
38472 | Why does she tell_ you_ her troubles?" |
38472 | Why on earth ca n''t anyone beat it? |
38472 | Why should he escape? |
38472 | Will you remain neutral, and let Tubby and myself go ahead with this plan ourselves?" |
38472 | You could n''t see a man to- night until he was right on top of you-- My God, what''s that?" |
38472 | You have n''t forgotten those?" |
38472 | You think, then, that he speculates with some sort of system?" |
38472 | You''re not going to leak to the bulls?" |
38472 | he asked anxiously,"Are they going lower?" |
38472 | he cried, and advancing toward Mills, he demanded truculently,"What the devil are you doing here?" |
38472 | he exclaimed,"do you mean you''re going to stop now? |
38472 | she cried,"we are not talking of costumes; what do they matter? |
47618 | ''Afraid of-- Norah?'' |
47618 | ''Am I a cynic?'' |
47618 | ''And is your cousin willing to accept it from you, after-- that story?'' |
47618 | ''Are boys always cruel, mamma?'' |
47618 | ''Are you not afraid to talk of everything before your daughter?'' |
47618 | ''Because a nail has come out of the wall?'' |
47618 | ''But he will live?'' |
47618 | ''But is Robert so accomplished as all this?'' |
47618 | ''But tell me now, suppose you were guardian to orphans, what should you do with their money? |
47618 | ''But, mamma,''said Clara,''are you sure it is only that? |
47618 | ''But, then, why be a director at all?'' |
47618 | ''Do n''t you see I dare n''t cry?'' |
47618 | ''Do n''t you think,''she faltered,''that Francesca-- is-- almost too innocent and sweet?'' |
47618 | ''Do you consider that you have the very lives of hundreds of people in your hands? |
47618 | ''Do you really object to Haldane as one of our shareholders?'' |
47618 | ''Do you remember going to London once, Clara, and seeing your cousin, Norah Drummond? |
47618 | ''Do you see that?'' |
47618 | ''Do you suppose the nail knew, Helen, or the bit of painted canvas? |
47618 | ''Do you think so?'' |
47618 | ''Do you want to create a panic and a run upon us?'' |
47618 | ''Does she read the papers?'' |
47618 | ''Dr Maurice, what does this mean?'' |
47618 | ''Drummond,''said the merchant, looking at him with a certain alarm,''are you sure you know what you are saying? |
47618 | ''Good God, what have you been doing with yourself?'' |
47618 | ''Good heavens, what can you be thinking of? |
47618 | ''Has he fainted?'' |
47618 | ''Have I said anything very clever, Mrs Drummond? |
47618 | ''Have you had the doctor? |
47618 | ''Have you nearly done, sir?'' |
47618 | ''How can I help it?'' |
47618 | ''How can they invent money? |
47618 | ''How can we tell? |
47618 | ''How do you know? |
47618 | ''How much can a man go through without being killed, I wonder?'' |
47618 | ''How much have you to forgive him?'' |
47618 | ''How much?'' |
47618 | ''I can not tell you of worries that do n''t exist, can I?'' |
47618 | ''I can see you whenever I like, so it is no novelty to me; while papa''s friends--''''Do you think they are papa''s friends? |
47618 | ''I suppose, then, we are justified in thinking anything that is bad of you, and ought not to trust you with a penny?'' |
47618 | ''I wonder if I ever did?'' |
47618 | ''I wonder if they will be as happy ten years hence?'' |
47618 | ''If I lived:--_I am doing it, knowing._''God, God, what was it he had gone to do? |
47618 | ''If it was a man''s doing, what could we say bad enough? |
47618 | ''Indeed?'' |
47618 | ''Is Mrs Drummond ill? |
47618 | ''Is he true, I wonder?'' |
47618 | ''Is it money?'' |
47618 | ''Is this the West- end?'' |
47618 | ''May I come too, mamma?'' |
47618 | ''May I read it, mamma?'' |
47618 | ''Mr Burton,''he said,''what do you mean to do to vindicate Drummond? |
47618 | ''Mr Drummond has come in?'' |
47618 | ''Much? |
47618 | ''Oh, who has done it-- who has done it? |
47618 | ''Perhaps you may think I was to blame in recommending such an investment of your money?'' |
47618 | ''Robert, are you to be put upon this bank because you are an R.A.?'' |
47618 | ''Shall you lose much?'' |
47618 | ''Stephen, do you hear? |
47618 | ''Still? |
47618 | ''Suppose I were to eat_ you_? |
47618 | ''That is your cousin-- your director?'' |
47618 | ''The fellow is rich,''said another:''do n''t you know what a favourite he is with all the dealers, and has been for ever so long?'' |
47618 | ''The fellow who absconded? |
47618 | ''Then you will still go?'' |
47618 | ''We all do that every day of our lives,''said Helen;''but what was there that specially vexed you, Robert?'' |
47618 | ''What cheery looks? |
47618 | ''What d''ye mean by being late?'' |
47618 | ''What fool can be coming now?'' |
47618 | ''What good shall I get of it alone, and how can I let you live for weeks by yourself?'' |
47618 | ''What has been going on to- day? |
47618 | ''What is that?'' |
47618 | ''What is the matter?'' |
47618 | ''What is the matter?'' |
47618 | ''What story? |
47618 | ''What will all our losses matter if Stephen gets well?'' |
47618 | ''What would you say to life in the country?'' |
47618 | ''When I ca n''t have you, what else am I to do?'' |
47618 | ''When did it happen? |
47618 | ''Where is there a better investment?'' |
47618 | ''Where? |
47618 | ''Who could possibly blame_ him_? |
47618 | ''Who is to be in the dreary prison?'' |
47618 | ''Who thinks of to- morrow? |
47618 | ''Who?--Drummond? |
47618 | ''Whom? |
47618 | ''Why do you sigh, and why do you shake your head?'' |
47618 | ''Why should I care?'' |
47618 | ''Why should a painter''s profession, which ought to be one of the noblest in the world, be obtruded upon the outer world at every step?'' |
47618 | ''Will you come with me?'' |
47618 | ''Will you have lunch, sir, before you go out?'' |
47618 | ''Yes, it is a change, is it not?'' |
47618 | ''You are quite chilly,''he said tenderly;''are you ill, Helen? |
47618 | ''You have heard from him? |
47618 | ''You have not seen, then, what is in the papers to- day? |
47618 | ''You have seen what they say?'' |
47618 | ''You met him on the day he took his life?'' |
47618 | ''You, Maurice? |
47618 | A concern I was so much interested in-- by which I am myself a loser----''''Do you lose much?'' |
47618 | Ah yes; it is wretched for us; but what must it be for my poor cousin? |
47618 | All these things are within the bounds of possibility, and if they happened, and we went to smash, as we should infallibly, what would Haldane do?'' |
47618 | Am I a brute to accept it, and take my own way?'' |
47618 | And how can I tell after this that I could even draw? |
47618 | And they knew better about it than he did; and what check could there be upon them? |
47618 | And were the pair of lovers new betrothed, who crossed their path now and then without seeing them, more blessed than the elder pair? |
47618 | And what good would it do even if you could? |
47618 | And why could not he, who had neither chick nor child, who had a house so much too big for him, why could not he take them in? |
47618 | And why had not he done it? |
47618 | Are they to live there?'' |
47618 | But how could she contradict him? |
47618 | But these are the facts; what can you make of them? |
47618 | But what did such covert insult matter? |
47618 | But what would have been the good? |
47618 | But where, where, and why this parting? |
47618 | But why linger upon such a scene? |
47618 | But, mamma, ai n''t you glad to get away from those men, and come in here to me?'' |
47618 | Ca n''t you turn round and speak to me? |
47618 | Can I set you down anywhere? |
47618 | Can you help me to that? |
47618 | Could he leave them-- those two who had just left the door-- to struggle through the rest of life by themselves? |
47618 | Could his wife have anything to do with it? |
47618 | Could she bear to go back to it? |
47618 | Could she have seen the papers, or heard any echo of their news? |
47618 | Could that be true? |
47618 | Could you hold the lamp for a moment, Helen? |
47618 | Did Mr Burton''s heart glow with benevolent warmth as he paused, drawing up his greys, and looked at it, with all its windows twinkling in the sun? |
47618 | Did he intend to be kind, or to insult the desolate woman? |
47618 | Did he mean to carry it with him into the dark and silent country where he was going? |
47618 | Did he tremble? |
47618 | Did not God_ know_? |
47618 | Did people still care for such things-- was it still possible that beauty and pleasantness remained in life? |
47618 | Do n''t groan, Stephen; do you think I mind it? |
47618 | Do you know what it is?'' |
47618 | Do you remember, Helen, that year when I was hung up at the ceiling? |
47618 | Do you think it would be improved by a little heightening of those lights?'' |
47618 | Dr Maurice, do you know what I ought to do?'' |
47618 | For old friendship''s sake, for all the associations of their youth, would Drummond help him? |
47618 | Half- a- dozen steps were enough to do it; but how to get back again? |
47618 | He had come to consult him about something? |
47618 | He stopped, and the suggestion flashed across him( whether out of his own mind, whether thrown at him by some mocking demon, who could tell? |
47618 | He was much mortified and disappointed at this failure; but then in his humility he said to himself,''What does it matter now? |
47618 | He was so worn out; and was it the grave- chill that was invading him already and making him shiver? |
47618 | He was sure of it; but-- what to do? |
47618 | He would do well enough-- what did it matter for a few weeks? |
47618 | How can I tell? |
47618 | How can any one tell? |
47618 | How can you understand them? |
47618 | How was he to know it was his wife and child? |
47618 | How was she to bear it? |
47618 | How was she to live when all was taken from her, even the support of her husband''s arm? |
47618 | I must go-- and find him-- O my God, where am I to go?'' |
47618 | I should not have ventured to marry you if I had not hoped to make you a kind of princess; but you do n''t believe I can; do you?'' |
47618 | I suppose there are no villains now- a- days, like what there are in books?'' |
47618 | I suppose you prefer that I should tell you plain?'' |
47618 | I wonder if he is true?'' |
47618 | I wonder why it is that one likes a woman to be silly now and then? |
47618 | If I go in with you, will your wife give me some lunch? |
47618 | If every other man among them had been art and part in losing three thousand pounds, what could Robert say? |
47618 | If he could have faced the world, why did he do_ that_?'' |
47618 | If it was so firmly established, so profitable, and so popular, why should the partners desire to share their good fortune with others? |
47618 | Is Rivers''s in difficulties? |
47618 | Is Rivers''s losing its position? |
47618 | Is it not natural? |
47618 | Is that all?'' |
47618 | Is there nothing-- nothing I can do?'' |
47618 | It is not for his life?'' |
47618 | It was still early; but what could they do down- stairs in the house which no longer retained a single feature of home? |
47618 | May he come in?'' |
47618 | May n''t we? |
47618 | Mr Burton, will she like it? |
47618 | Must I go with you to- day?'' |
47618 | Must she not even think of him as in heaven, as hidden in God with the dead who depart in faith and peace, but gone elsewhere, banished for ever? |
47618 | Not a thorough lady of art such as-- such as----Such as whom? |
47618 | Oh why was it summer and the days so long? |
47618 | Oh, show it me-- show it me!--am not I his wife?'' |
47618 | Oh, yes; where should we go else? |
47618 | Once more, how much? |
47618 | Poor Andrea''s Lucrezia, who ruined him? |
47618 | Should you like to have her here?'' |
47618 | Tell me frankly, my darling-- do you dislike it so much as this?'' |
47618 | That comes better now?'' |
47618 | That''s the best guarantee I can give, do n''t you think? |
47618 | The Haldanes? |
47618 | The fears that overwhelmed her were ridiculous, no doubt; but amid the darkness and tragic gloom which surrounded her, what was she to think? |
47618 | The mother''s second marriage had not been a success, but was Helen to blame for that? |
47618 | The thing was, where was Robert to go? |
47618 | The use of it? |
47618 | Then why should he go on trying, proving, over and over, how much he could, and how much he could not do? |
47618 | There was a twinkle in their eyes, and the''Do you remember?'' |
47618 | To- day he had begun to wonder why, if a sacrifice was needed, it should not have been him? |
47618 | Was Robert the kind of man to be disturbed about business? |
47618 | Was he a criminal? |
47618 | Was he glad to have shaken off the bonds of Rivers''s, though they were golden bonds? |
47618 | Was he mad? |
47618 | Was he----drunk? |
47618 | Was it because he had loved her once? |
47618 | Was it damnation as well as death he was going to face? |
47618 | Was it dissipation? |
47618 | Was it farewell for ever, and ever, and ever? |
47618 | Was it for ever? |
47618 | Was it not enough that he had lost Drummond, his oldest friend, but he must lose the child too, whom he had watched ever since she was born? |
47618 | Was it some concealed misery? |
47618 | Was it with some premonition of what she should find when she came back? |
47618 | Was she Lucrezia rather, the wife that goaded him into misery? |
47618 | Was that all he could do? |
47618 | Was that the Dives he had thought of, the soul in pain so wistful, so sad, yet scarcely able to despair? |
47618 | Was that the reason? |
47618 | Was that to be the spot? |
47618 | What can God be thinking of, mamma?'' |
47618 | What can I do?'' |
47618 | What could be expected when you fellows who know nothing about money would interfere? |
47618 | What could be making him so miserable? |
47618 | What could have kept him so long? |
47618 | What could he do to stop such a slander? |
47618 | What could he do? |
47618 | What could it mean? |
47618 | What could she do, a feeble woman, against the men who had cast this stigma on her husband? |
47618 | What could she do? |
47618 | What could they know about it? |
47618 | What did he go and do_ that_ for? |
47618 | What did he mean? |
47618 | What did that matter? |
47618 | What distinction would it have given to Raphael or to Titian, or even to Gainsborough or Sir Joshua Reynolds, to be made directors of a bank? |
47618 | What has happened? |
47618 | What have you been doing?'' |
47618 | What have you heard? |
47618 | What is the good of being unhappy about a thing I can not mend? |
47618 | What is the meaning of it? |
47618 | What is there wonderful in this?'' |
47618 | What is to be done for her education? |
47618 | What more could a woman want to make her glad? |
47618 | What was his elation about? |
47618 | What was his motive, then? |
47618 | What were they to him in comparison with herself? |
47618 | What would Helen think of her bargain now? |
47618 | What, then, could she say? |
47618 | Where are you going? |
47618 | Where had he gone?'' |
47618 | Who has seen him?'' |
47618 | Who must I give them to? |
47618 | Why are they so sad in summer, those lustrous stars? |
47618 | Why ca n''t he judge for himself? |
47618 | Why did he destroy those evidences which would no doubt have cleared him had he acted fairly and honestly? |
47618 | Why do n''t you call the shareholders together and tell them if anything is wrong?'' |
47618 | Why do we stop in this record of trouble to babble about sunset skies and running waters? |
47618 | Why do you require to go hat in hand to any governor? |
47618 | Why should I bother myself about it?'' |
47618 | Why should he so wear his heart upon his sleeve? |
47618 | Why should it ever come to an end? |
47618 | Why should we speak so? |
47618 | Why, then, did her cousin show such high spirits? |
47618 | Would it be honourable for him to give up following his advice now, especially in a matter which he had so much at heart? |
47618 | Would she see him? |
47618 | Would the money ever be paid back that he had got so easily? |
47618 | Would to- morrow ever come? |
47618 | You could say, I know, a great deal more than that; but what does it matter without proof? |
47618 | You heard what he said?'' |
47618 | You kind, dear souls, do you think those cheery looks you have made such work to keep up, deceive me?'' |
47618 | You know Golden, Drummond? |
47618 | You were in yourself, I believe? |
47618 | You will say what can I do? |
47618 | _ Drummond!_ What does it mean?'' |
47618 | _ Why_ was he not a Raphael, a Titian? |
47618 | are you mad? |
47618 | are you mad? |
47618 | because he was fond of her still? |
47618 | because she was his relation? |
47618 | but what does it matter what you put in if they like it? |
47618 | have you been drinking? |
47618 | how dare you take such a liberty when you knew who was with me?'' |
47618 | is n''t it from papa?'' |
47618 | is there anything wrong? |
47618 | oh, what is the matter?'' |
47618 | said Robert,''what have you been doing? |
47618 | she said, clasping her hands,''must we bear it? |
47618 | was it his doing? |
47618 | what can we do? |
47618 | when his worst begins to come, what will become of us?'' |
47618 | where is he?'' |
47618 | where is he?'' |
47618 | where was he going? |
47618 | where? |
47618 | who was he that the world should take his word for it? |
47620 | ''A sign of what?'' |
47620 | ''And everything is ready?'' |
47620 | ''And so poor Haldane gets no better? |
47620 | ''And what do you think they are made of, Ned, to dare to say such a thing to me? |
47620 | ''And, mother, do you believe all this? |
47620 | ''Are we to let him go-- to save him that he may ruin others? |
47620 | ''At the pictures?'' |
47620 | ''Better than here, do n''t you think? |
47620 | ''But Jane, Jane, if any one has got in? |
47620 | ''But are you sure it is safe? |
47620 | ''But you do n''t say anything?'' |
47620 | ''Can I go home? |
47620 | ''Clara, what o''clock is it now?'' |
47620 | ''Did I? |
47620 | ''Did you speak, sir? |
47620 | ''Do n''t you want me, mamma?'' |
47620 | ''Do you know what punishment means, when you make yourself the instrument of it? |
47620 | ''Do you like this man Golden, mother?'' |
47620 | ''Do you think I blame you? |
47620 | ''Do you think I forget that?'' |
47620 | ''Do you? |
47620 | ''Does n''t it, dear? |
47620 | ''Does the man think I am such a fool as to be afraid of him?'' |
47620 | ''Dr Maurice, what do you mean?'' |
47620 | ''Father,''said Ned,''is Mr Golden aware that the lady he is speaking of is our relation-- and friend? |
47620 | ''Had my father anything to do with this?'' |
47620 | ''Has Mr Golden anything to say to your business?'' |
47620 | ''Has any one come, Susan?'' |
47620 | ''Have you any authority to go into my house? |
47620 | ''He is hiding here,''said Stephen,''and policemen outside? |
47620 | ''Helen, is it you? |
47620 | ''How can_ we_ argue the question?'' |
47620 | ''How can_ you_ tell?'' |
47620 | ''How did you avoid it, Norah, if you were neither angry nor stiff?'' |
47620 | ''I wonder who she is? |
47620 | ''Is it you, Norah?'' |
47620 | ''Is n''t it, Ned?'' |
47620 | ''Is that the only question?'' |
47620 | ''Mother, has this been in your mind, while I have been thinking you took so little interest? |
47620 | ''Mother, if there is a possibility of disgrace, how can I, how can any of us, escape from it-- and more especially I? |
47620 | ''Mother,''said Ned,''can I get your candle? |
47620 | ''Mr Burton,''she said,''what are you doing here?'' |
47620 | ''Mrs Drummond, can you give me ten minutes? |
47620 | ''My dear Miss Burton,''he said, in an undertone, which however Ned could hear,''did n''t I tell you there was danger? |
47620 | ''Ned, is there any sacrifice I can make that will induce you to go away?'' |
47620 | ''Ned, you have heard of poor papa, my father, who died before we came here? |
47620 | ''Norah, where will you go? |
47620 | ''Oh, what does my wish matter?'' |
47620 | ''Oh, where can mamma be? |
47620 | ''Tell me, what is his connection with us?'' |
47620 | ''Tell me,''she said, repeating her question almost without knowing what she said,''why are you here?'' |
47620 | ''The only thing is, will my dress do?'' |
47620 | ''Then the news had not come,''he cried, with a certain relief;''nobody knows as yet? |
47620 | ''To go away?'' |
47620 | ''To stop-- what?'' |
47620 | ''Was that all you intended me for?'' |
47620 | ''Well?'' |
47620 | ''Well?'' |
47620 | ''Were you at the opera last night?'' |
47620 | ''Were you fond of dancing yourself, Miss Jane?'' |
47620 | ''What business have they, I''d like to know, in a lady''s house at this hour of the night?'' |
47620 | ''What can we do-- what can we do?'' |
47620 | ''What can we do? |
47620 | ''What could I do?'' |
47620 | ''What did he say to you, mamma?'' |
47620 | ''What do you mean, Ned?'' |
47620 | ''What has given you so sudden an interest in my business, I should like to know? |
47620 | ''What have the securities of life mattered to the others, who had no connection with-- with my father? |
47620 | ''What have they done to you, Robert?'' |
47620 | ''What is it to you,''he said,''if I am employed to take Miss Burton to her father? |
47620 | ''What is it?'' |
47620 | ''What is the truth, as you call it?'' |
47620 | ''What other question can there be, Mr Haldane? |
47620 | ''What shall I do? |
47620 | ''What truth?'' |
47620 | ''Where, Ned?'' |
47620 | ''Who is that?'' |
47620 | ''Why must I dance?'' |
47620 | ''Why should they look at each other? |
47620 | ''Why should you apologise, Mr Rivers? |
47620 | ''Why, mother?'' |
47620 | ''Will you keep near the house?'' |
47620 | ''You will go, mamma?'' |
47620 | ''_ You_ want me, do you, child?'' |
47620 | After a while, Norah, nestling like a little bird in the dark, said softly,''Do you mind sitting without the lamp?'' |
47620 | All Dura had remarked upon it before now; all Dura had wondered, did the parents see it? |
47620 | Am I obliged to let you in? |
47620 | And how could I let the place Norah had been brought up in-- the place I love-- go to other people? |
47620 | And how was he now to go away and seek another refuge? |
47620 | And may I ask if I were to accept this splendid offer of yours, what would you expect as an equivalent? |
47620 | And then she asked herself in dismay, what would have happened when poor Ned came? |
47620 | And then the question returned, What was to be done? |
47620 | And what did it all mean? |
47620 | And what do you want?'' |
47620 | And who could the lady be who was with him? |
47620 | And, oh, how can I go after Clara and leave the girls?'' |
47620 | And, oh, what do you mean walking about outside like that, as if you knew nobody here?'' |
47620 | Are you all alone, my own darling? |
47620 | At last--''Are you Robert Drummond?'' |
47620 | But now they are going to take you away from me, and when, when shall I see you again?'' |
47620 | But still Norah asked,''What can we do? |
47620 | But to eyes that danced so, and cheeks that glowed so, what could any mother say? |
47620 | But what was to be done? |
47620 | But why from Golden, he asked, a man whom he hated? |
47620 | By times Helen would sit in the familiar room, and ask herself was it_ now_--the present-- or was it the past which had come back? |
47620 | Can I be of any use to you?'' |
47620 | Can it be you? |
47620 | Could I help you to keep things straight, save you from being cheated?--do anything for you? |
47620 | Could it all be undone? |
47620 | Could it be true? |
47620 | Could it float away like a tale that is told, that tale of seven long years? |
47620 | Could it have been done on purpose? |
47620 | Could n''t I serve you instead of him? |
47620 | Dear, ignorant reader, perhaps you do not know what this means? |
47620 | Did n''t you say that one meets everybody at the Academy, mamma?'' |
47620 | Did you mean, upon some hypothetical engagement, whatever you may happen to get, to support a wife-- and me?'' |
47620 | Do n''t you think Clara Burton is looking quite beautiful to- night?'' |
47620 | Do people behave so naturally? |
47620 | Do you care-- a little for me? |
47620 | Do you know that you are in my power?'' |
47620 | Do you mean to suffer her to be so spoken of in your house?'' |
47620 | Do you mean,''said Norah, faltering and trembling,''do you mean that this means-- Is it-- being engaged?'' |
47620 | Do you really think it is safe? |
47620 | Do you think I am too old to manage it for myself?'' |
47620 | Do you think it is right? |
47620 | Dr Maurice kept an eye upon him, wondering, as Helen had done, Did he mean anything? |
47620 | For was not Robert dead, dead, buried under the cold river, seven years ago? |
47620 | For why should Ned be disturbed by a thing which did not concern him, and which had happened so long ago? |
47620 | Had anything happened?--was she dreaming? |
47620 | Had it come to this? |
47620 | Had not she read about such wiles a thousand times? |
47620 | Had she a heart at all? |
47620 | Have you a warrant?'' |
47620 | Have you forgotten you are speaking to-- Robert''s wife?'' |
47620 | Have you money?'' |
47620 | He asked himself, as Norah had done when Mr Rivers left her at the door of the Academy''s Exhibition, was this natural? |
47620 | He cared so little for it-- was that why the stream of fortune came to him? |
47620 | He had to decide, decide, decide in a moment how it should be inaugurated, by mercy or by judgment-- by the sin( was it not a sin?) |
47620 | He looked at Helen with dull wonder, and asked under his breath--''''Did you know?'' |
47620 | He supposed the fellow was happy like that, now? |
47620 | He was an honest old man, and a kind, but what kind of a strange being was this whom he had nourished so long in his heart? |
47620 | He would stop her and say,''What does that mean?'' |
47620 | How am I to get him out?'' |
47620 | How can I get him away?'' |
47620 | How could he tell who might be about, or what Golden''s feelings were towards him? |
47620 | How could she lay sins to this man''s charge, who was not great enough in himself to frighten a fly? |
47620 | How dare you over- persuade a child like that? |
47620 | How much, she wondered, would she have to suffer? |
47620 | How old is Mrs Drummond? |
47620 | How old may this lady be?'' |
47620 | How should she find him? |
47620 | How should you find that suit your plans, my fine gentleman Ned?'' |
47620 | How were they to suppose Mr Drummond would? |
47620 | I am on the shady side of fifty, though not very far gone; and you are-- about forty, I suppose?'' |
47620 | I never intended to be a burden on you; but even without that----''''What have I done, mother, that you should speak to me so?'' |
47620 | I suppose, now, when you see out of the carriage window somebody you know walking, it does not make you proud?'' |
47620 | I wonder if he has been to Dura? |
47620 | I wonder what they are doing here at this hour? |
47620 | If he should try to keep you from me--''''Oh, Ned, do you mean that this means anything? |
47620 | If she had sent him away then with contumely, how much more now? |
47620 | If this is so, what can you think of yourself, who never try to restrain or to remedy?--who never made an attempt to retrench or save a penny? |
47620 | In her heart she wondered at his simplicity, at the folly of his hopes; but what was the use of saying anything? |
47620 | Is it just? |
47620 | Is it possible? |
47620 | Is it the way of the world? |
47620 | Is it true?'' |
47620 | Is it very late?'' |
47620 | Is n''t it enough for us to care for each other-- to be the very best, dearest friends?'' |
47620 | Is that all?'' |
47620 | Is there anything as I can do for you?'' |
47620 | Is there to be no punishment for him?'' |
47620 | It is not for Norah''s sake? |
47620 | Listen; that is what you call comfort for a ruined man, is it not?'' |
47620 | Look here, Helen Drummond, why should n''t you and I, if it comes to that-- marry? |
47620 | Monsieur est- il chez lui? |
47620 | Must it be told? |
47620 | Must not those suffer who have done the wrong?'' |
47620 | Must she acknowledge before the world that all had been in vain? |
47620 | My consent to some wretched marriage or other, I suppose, allowance doubled, home provided, and my blessing, eh? |
47620 | Ned, what must we do?'' |
47620 | Oh, Ned, Ned, why have you come here?'' |
47620 | Oh, Ned, how could you? |
47620 | Oh, Norah, what could it mean else? |
47620 | Oh, are you not afraid to tire out my patience? |
47620 | Oh, what shall I do?'' |
47620 | Oh, will you let me stay with you? |
47620 | One picture-- was there any other in the place? |
47620 | Out with it-- how much was the equivalent to be?'' |
47620 | Papa, what are you going to do?'' |
47620 | People might not, perhaps, say there was anything absolutely wrong between us-- Pray may I ask what you are laughing at?'' |
47620 | Rivers?'' |
47620 | She looked in his face wistfully; but now the opportunity was over, and what could he say? |
47620 | She was sure; and what did it matter what any one said? |
47620 | She will marry, and then what shall we do? |
47620 | She, Robert''s spotless wife, his faithful widow-- to whom was she going? |
47620 | Should she have to go to him? |
47620 | Should she see any of those old faces? |
47620 | Should such a scoundrel get off, when innocent men had so bitterly suffered? |
47620 | Should they go back to Clapham? |
47620 | Tell me first, while we are alone and can speak freely, what can I do?'' |
47620 | That is, let me see, how long ago? |
47620 | That was not what you invited us for, surely, Dr Maurice? |
47620 | The only thought of which she was capable was-- Is everybody like that? |
47620 | The other-- had she any interest in it? |
47620 | The road was quieter than usual; no one in sight; and with his hat so over his eyes, who could recognise him? |
47620 | The very fact of her entertainments and splendours would be so much evidence that she knew nothing about it-- and indeed what did she know? |
47620 | Then pray how is she to live?'' |
47620 | Then the butler came timidly to ask should they shut up? |
47620 | Thus the good soul sat and talked, while Helen listened to every sound, and wondered where was he now? |
47620 | Was he contemplating the idea of a wife young enough to be his daughter? |
47620 | Was it him she was thinking of? |
47620 | Was it his laugh that sounded like something infernal? |
47620 | Was it into Hades, into the everlasting darkness, that she had followed her lost, as Orpheus followed Eurydice? |
47620 | Was it mere caprice on her part? |
47620 | Was it not natural that she should reconsider it, now that she found how little interest he took in the matter? |
47620 | Was it possible that thus strangely, thus suddenly, she was to meet him again from whom she had been so long parted? |
47620 | Was it possible? |
47620 | Was it real? |
47620 | Was it the old drawing- room she had lived in yesterday? |
47620 | Was it this man''s voice? |
47620 | Was mamma ever cruel? |
47620 | Was she praying? |
47620 | Was that the story, written in ruin, written in tears? |
47620 | Was there ever anything so strange?'' |
47620 | We are not afraid of her, Clara, are we?'' |
47620 | What am I to her? |
47620 | What are you crying about, Miss Jane? |
47620 | What can_ you_ do-- a child? |
47620 | What could he be going to talk about? |
47620 | What could she do but render herself extremely unhappy, and spoil the comfort of others without doing them any good? |
47620 | What did Mrs Burton mean by permitting it? |
47620 | What did it mean? |
47620 | What did it mean? |
47620 | What did she care for his news? |
47620 | What did the man mean? |
47620 | What has happened?'' |
47620 | What has he done?'' |
47620 | What have I done?'' |
47620 | What have you done that I should help you? |
47620 | What if Norah should not''take to''the new father-- the stranger who yet was so truly her own Robert of old? |
47620 | What manner of man was it who said he was her Robert, who wrote as Robert wrote, who had called her to him, with the force of absolute right? |
47620 | What relief could it afford her to know that another suffered too, and that other her son? |
47620 | What shall we do?'' |
47620 | What shall we do?'' |
47620 | What then? |
47620 | What was it Clara was going to do? |
47620 | What was it? |
47620 | What was the good of fighting against them? |
47620 | What were his dark eyes, his speaking glances, his skilful inference of a devotion above words, to her? |
47620 | What will she do?'' |
47620 | What would her mother say? |
47620 | When we did not remark upon it, why should you? |
47620 | Where is he now? |
47620 | Where is the fly? |
47620 | Where was Helen? |
47620 | Where was he-- he who had stretched out his hands to her in the depths of despair, from hell, from across the Atlantic, from-- where? |
47620 | Where was he? |
47620 | Where was she?--in St Mary''s Road, in the old days before the studio was built? |
47620 | Who are you? |
47620 | Who was it that had said this close to him, so that the very air repeated and repeated it, whispering it in his ear? |
47620 | Whom should she meet? |
47620 | Whom was she going to meet? |
47620 | Why should I avoid you, Mr Rivers? |
47620 | Why should I? |
47620 | Why should Ned be brought home? |
47620 | Why should he be involved in trouble he has nothing to do with? |
47620 | Why should he go to the Gatehouse? |
47620 | Why should he go? |
47620 | Why should he trouble himself about that? |
47620 | Why should n''t you come? |
47620 | Why should she be ashamed of being interested in Cyril''s mother? |
47620 | Why should she read them? |
47620 | Why, he asked himself, should he go to the village? |
47620 | Will you let me take you to it? |
47620 | Will you tell me frankly whether a fellow like me, trained so differently, would be of real use to you? |
47620 | Would he whom it concerned ever return? |
47620 | Would it ever be of any use to her? |
47620 | Would the old assimilate with the new, and the widow become a wife again without some wrench, some convulsion of nature? |
47620 | You are not angry? |
47620 | You have said_ they_, speaking of this man''s infamous----Was my father concerned?'' |
47620 | You promise? |
47620 | You would never have the heart to cast me off now?'' |
47620 | am I in the way of making such jokes? |
47620 | and oh, what will all their grandeur do for them, with Ned at the other end of the world, and Clara throwing herself away?'' |
47620 | but what of that? |
47620 | do n''t hate me for saying it-- what would you do?'' |
47620 | do n''t you know me? |
47620 | do you think it is right?'' |
47620 | do you? |
47620 | have they brought you here because of all this trouble? |
47620 | he asked himself; had she a conscience? |
47620 | he said sullenly;''what have I to do with it? |
47620 | he said, trembling;''will you stay with me here? |
47620 | how can you, you who are only a boy, be half sorry enough?'' |
47620 | how much shame should she have to bear? |
47620 | is this what it has all come to? |
47620 | not just because you are sorry? |
47620 | of helping the escape of a criminal, or by the righteous deed( where was it said that this might be a sin too?) |
47620 | or had he really the good sense to think of a woman about his own age? |
47620 | or should he take his poor child away somewhere for''change of air''? |
47620 | that her husband was a fugitive, her daughter the victim of a scoundrel, her family for ever crushed down and trampled in the dust? |
47620 | the following question:''By the way, what could Golden be doing at Turley Station, seven miles from Dura, at four o''clock in the morning? |
47620 | to visit him in his prison? |
47620 | was he a prisoner? |
47620 | was master to be expected? |
47620 | was this the way of the world? |
47620 | what am I to do?'' |
47620 | what can I say to you? |
47620 | what can we do?'' |
47620 | what did he mean? |
47620 | what if she had not refused? |
47620 | what might be coming upon her? |
47620 | what might be happening? |
47620 | why have you come here?'' |
47620 | will you go with me, back to New York? |
47620 | you do n''t mean to say that you have come here alone?'' |
47620 | you do n''t see it? |
47620 | you do n''t think I could have the heart to cross you? |
47620 | you who are so much wiser than I am-- you are going to let yourself be guided by me?'' |
40797 | A deal? 40797 A design of yours?" |
40797 | Ah, what have you done? |
40797 | Alice and I feel as if we had been having the influenza-- don''t we, dear? 40797 Alice, shall we save up our money and buy a little toy yacht? |
40797 | All I say to you seems nothing more than platitude, perhaps? |
40797 | All right; but why be personal? 40797 All these fine people?" |
40797 | An actor? 40797 And Jack-- what am I to say to Jack?" |
40797 | And are n''t we getting on rather quick? |
40797 | And as a shareholder? |
40797 | And do you know that you are speaking of my brother? |
40797 | And how about lies? 40797 And if I choose to call Berkshire the Malay Archipelago,"said Kit,"who is to stop me?" |
40797 | And if it is the wrong sort of person? |
40797 | And is this bounder going to make you and Jack very rich? |
40797 | And my duties? |
40797 | And shall we all make our fortunes? |
40797 | And since when have you become your sister- in- law''s keeper in this astounding manner? |
40797 | And so you are going to chance the mine going still higher? |
40797 | And the mines? |
40797 | And what do they make of toothache? |
40797 | And what next? |
40797 | And what proof have I of the truth of what you say? |
40797 | And who is coming? 40797 And will it be that which killed her?" |
40797 | And will you help me? |
40797 | Are you ill, Kit? |
40797 | Are you never serious? |
40797 | Are you quarrelling with me? |
40797 | Are you ready, Jack? |
40797 | Are you sure? |
40797 | At what? |
40797 | But Bayreuth was very fatiguing,she went on;"or is it Beyrout? |
40797 | But I may have this dance? |
40797 | But can you really think I should be so tragic an ass as to come to you with my mere assertion that I did not cheat? 40797 But do n''t you see?" |
40797 | But for ever, till the end of one''s life? |
40797 | But is n''t it stupid of me? 40797 But it is interesting, is it not?" |
40797 | But the telegram? |
40797 | But what do you suppose they will find out at the inquiry? |
40797 | But what else are we to do? |
40797 | But why do you do as I wish, Toby? |
40797 | By tendency I mean the direction in which they are advancing? |
40797 | By the way, I hope, my dear fellow, that your wife is better? |
40797 | By the way, how is Lily? |
40797 | Can you meet me to- morrow morning at my rooms, St. James''s Street? |
40797 | Detectives? 40797 Did Alice Haslemere lend you some?" |
40797 | Did n''t you find that rather tedious? |
40797 | Did she tell you that? |
40797 | Did that fellow give you five thousand a year as director? |
40797 | Did you ask her? |
40797 | Did you come here in order to quarrel with me? |
40797 | Did you go to Naples? |
40797 | Did you go with one of Cook''s tours? |
40797 | Did you say Jack refused to see you? |
40797 | Did you think I should throw you over? |
40797 | Different? 40797 Do n''t flirt, you mean?" |
40797 | Do n''t you see what I mean? |
40797 | Do you dislike anyone, Toby? |
40797 | Do you know him? |
40797 | Do you know the man? |
40797 | Do you like London? |
40797 | Do you mean I must renounce the world, and all that? |
40797 | Do you mean to say that you are liable to be called on by any City editor, and made to give him money not to crab the mine? |
40797 | Do you mean you left him lying there? |
40797 | Do you mean you pay me five thousand pounds a year out of your own purse? |
40797 | Do you really suppose Jack would really mind? |
40797 | Do you shrink from me? 40797 Do you think it will go higher again?" |
40797 | Do you think she is very bad? |
40797 | Drink? |
40797 | Golf? |
40797 | Good- evening, Jack,he said;"are you coming to the Tauntons''? |
40797 | Had a nice dip? |
40797 | Has his lordship gone out? |
40797 | Have n''t the people who stay at this hotel ever seen people before? 40797 Have you got a little nest- egg, dear?" |
40797 | Have you seen this? |
40797 | He''s a real worm, is he? |
40797 | How did you get that three thousand pounds? |
40797 | How is Lady Conybeare? |
40797 | How is she? |
40797 | How is that? |
40797 | How is the mine man? |
40797 | How is who? |
40797 | How long are you going to stop here? |
40797 | How much have you made, Jack? |
40797 | How much money do you want, Kit? |
40797 | How much? |
40797 | How sixpence? 40797 I always thought a deal meant something rather questionable?" |
40797 | I see,said Lily;"but if you had, you would lend it him?" |
40797 | I suppose middle- class people would think us wicked? |
40797 | I think you talked it over with Lady Haslemere? |
40797 | I,he asked,"on a board of mining directors? |
40797 | In the world? 40797 Indeed? |
40797 | Is Comber there? |
40797 | Is lunch ready, Poole? 40797 Is n''t it too terrible?" |
40797 | Is n''t it? 40797 Is that my habit, dear?" |
40797 | It is really a big thing then? |
40797 | It shall be so, Toby? |
40797 | Jack in anguish? |
40797 | Jack, will you or will you not leave the whole matter in my hands-- the whole matter, you understand-- without interference? |
40797 | Kit coming to see you? 40797 Kit, will you be serious a minute?" |
40797 | Lady Conybeare has started? |
40797 | Lily, do you think she will die? |
40797 | Lily,he said,"will you not tell me who it is who wants to borrow money from you? |
40797 | Lord Evelyn? 40797 Lots; but which?" |
40797 | Madrigals? |
40797 | May I ask why? |
40797 | May I have the pleasure? |
40797 | Miss Murchison is not delicate? |
40797 | Money-- who cares? 40797 My dear Alington, what have you been doing?" |
40797 | My duty? |
40797 | Now why? |
40797 | Now will you allow me to speak with your own frankness? 40797 Oh, Jack, what is it?" |
40797 | Oh, Jack, what is the use of saying that? |
40797 | Oh, that''s the game, is n''t it, where you dig a sandpit, and then hit the ball into it and swear? 40797 Or condole?" |
40797 | Or crab? |
40797 | Put the lights out, William,she said,"or is it Thomas?" |
40797 | Really I am quite sorry to leave; I have got quite attached to my dear little room, and do n''t you think it''s rather pretty? 40797 Rome is delightful, is it not?" |
40797 | Shall I unseal what I have written, and put a postscript saying you wish it to be understood that so much interest is charged on a loan? 40797 Shall we go on to the balcony?" |
40797 | Shall we have coffee there as usual, Lady Conybeare? |
40797 | She did n''t happen to say by what train she was going to arrive to- morrow? |
40797 | She is to understand that I saw nothing? |
40797 | She is very ill? |
40797 | Slow? 40797 Supposing I refuse to apologize?" |
40797 | Supposing it is a real smash, will you have lost much, Jack? |
40797 | Ted Comber? 40797 Tendency in what line?" |
40797 | That happens to be your opinion, does it? |
40797 | That will surely be periphrased in the accounts, wo n''t it? |
40797 | The bank? 40797 The first what, and the second what, Kit?" |
40797 | The outline of the plot, Jack? |
40797 | Then why do you come? |
40797 | Then why, if the papers were correctly informed, did you go on buying last night? |
40797 | Then will you, Toby? |
40797 | There will be an inquiry into the matter? |
40797 | Think of his face,she cried,"if I just send a note!--''DEAR TOBY: How does Stanborough suit you and your_ fiancée_? |
40797 | This sort of thing, do you mean? |
40797 | Threw them what? |
40797 | To the where? |
40797 | Toby, can you lie? |
40797 | Toby, speaking purely in the abstract, what do you do if a man wants to borrow money from you? |
40797 | Very poor, and who made it? 40797 Was Miss Murchison with you?" |
40797 | Was he much hurt? |
40797 | Was it not so, Lady Conybeare? 40797 Was it not? |
40797 | Was n''t it awfully slow? |
40797 | Was n''t it? 40797 Was that all she said?" |
40797 | Well? |
40797 | Well? |
40797 | Well? |
40797 | What about Tom? |
40797 | What am I to do? |
40797 | What are you going to do? |
40797 | What are you going to propagate to- day? |
40797 | What can I say to you? |
40797 | What had he come for? |
40797 | What has happened? |
40797 | What is his name? |
40797 | What is it? |
40797 | What is it? |
40797 | What is it? |
40797 | What is the matter? 40797 What is the matter?" |
40797 | What you and Lady Haslemere saw,he went on--"did your husband suspect me too? |
40797 | Whatever do you want Tom Abbotsworthy for? |
40797 | When did I not behave nicely to you? |
40797 | When did you last do your duty, Kit? |
40797 | Where is Jack? |
40797 | Where? 40797 Which do you advise?" |
40797 | Who are the Christian scientists? |
40797 | Who is that dancing with Lady Conybeare? |
40797 | Who is that? |
40797 | Who is to be there? |
40797 | Who sent the telegram about the strong support in Australia? |
40797 | Who was the happy lady? |
40797 | Who? 40797 Whom?" |
40797 | Why do you suppose Jack goes to the House whenever there is a Church Bill on? 40797 Why else should he refuse to see you?" |
40797 | Why not? 40797 Why not? |
40797 | Why not? 40797 Why not?" |
40797 | Why try the cynical_ rôle_? 40797 Why, for instance, do you suppose that I went down to the wilds of Kensington and opened a bazaar, as I did this afternoon?" |
40797 | Why, please? |
40797 | Why? 40797 Why? |
40797 | Why? |
40797 | Why? |
40797 | Will my lord grant the request of his handmaiden? |
40797 | Will you see Jack? |
40797 | Wo n''t that be rather unpleasant if they get into salaries? |
40797 | Wo n''t you go and see her? |
40797 | Wo n''t you have an ice or something, Miss Murchison? 40797 Would you if he was dying, or if you were?" |
40797 | Would you this day fifty years? |
40797 | Yes, is n''t it sweet of me? |
40797 | Yes, she plays divinely, does she not? |
40797 | You do n''t like pipes, I think? |
40797 | You do n''t understand, my dear Conybeare, do you? |
40797 | You find people amusing? |
40797 | You have heard the news, Kit? |
40797 | You have made her a present of it? |
40797 | You have seen it? 40797 You mean it is a certainty for me?" |
40797 | You noticed something? |
40797 | You paid him? |
40797 | You think people have less_ tout à fait_ in America? |
40797 | You were in luck as well as I, were you not, Jack? |
40797 | A paper gives an opinion; what matter whose-- mine or the editor''s? |
40797 | About the baccarat, what were you saying?" |
40797 | Alington?" |
40797 | Alington?" |
40797 | Alington?" |
40797 | And after that what? |
40797 | And an heiress, is she not?" |
40797 | And did you get all those great purchases of yours home safely? |
40797 | And do n''t you find a hotel quite intolerable?" |
40797 | And has Toby been making himself pleasant, Miss Murchison? |
40797 | And is there anyone else coming down here before I go on Wednesday, or shall we have a nice little no- place- like- home all by ourselves?" |
40797 | And supposing he tells me Kit did n''t write to me? |
40797 | And the certainty of last night is still a suspicion to- day?" |
40797 | And the wrong I have done to-- to your unborn child, what of that?" |
40797 | And was your talk satisfactory?" |
40797 | And what did his lordship think about the treatment of the trouser? |
40797 | And what did you talk to Lord Evelyn about, dear? |
40797 | And what have I done for her? |
40797 | And you dislike that sort of inspection?" |
40797 | Are you going to take a hand in them?" |
40797 | Are you willing to learn as much about mines? |
40797 | Besides, how often has she seen you? |
40797 | Besides, what does that matter? |
40797 | Besides, who in their senses would not prefer to live delicately than to dodge detectives? |
40797 | Braid on the outside of the leg, or not? |
40797 | But fear it? |
40797 | But how can I know from what it springs? |
40797 | But if it''s not Casabianca, who is it?" |
40797 | But what evil genius prompted you to put a turquoise in a russet tie?" |
40797 | But what will happen to me if the shares do not go up?" |
40797 | But what would you say, Lord Abbotsworthy, was the main tendency of the upper classes in England?" |
40797 | But what,"he added,"do I get by it?" |
40797 | But why, why keep it up with me? |
40797 | But, Lily, what is to be said on either side? |
40797 | By what right, if you please?" |
40797 | Can not you forget pain, risk, danger of death, even in that? |
40797 | Come, Lady Conybeare, by what right do you make an enemy of me?" |
40797 | Desperate? |
40797 | Did it ever occur to you, Toby, that you have married the nicest girl that ever breathed?" |
40797 | Did you enjoy yourself, Lily?" |
40797 | Did you not hear? |
40797 | Did you suggest it?" |
40797 | Do n''t you know the kind? |
40797 | Do n''t you think it is good?" |
40797 | Do n''t you wish you had?" |
40797 | Do they expect Berkeley Street to come to them?" |
40797 | Do you call it a deal?" |
40797 | Do you expect Carmel will go higher?" |
40797 | Do you go to the Hungarian ball to- night? |
40797 | Do you really believe that, Kit?" |
40797 | Do you see that he has been buying every share he can lay hands on?" |
40797 | Do you suppose Jack remembers the grouse he killed yesterday?" |
40797 | Does n''t Tennyson speak of the''bar of Marie Antoinette''? |
40797 | Does not all in you that you know to be best point one way? |
40797 | Eh?" |
40797 | Else, what happens to social and festive meetings? |
40797 | Got anything for me to say?" |
40797 | Had we better go and pat him on the back? |
40797 | Half- past eight, is n''t it? |
40797 | Half- past two; is it really? |
40797 | Have I ever made this wicked, difficult business of life any easier for her? |
40797 | Have n''t you heard?" |
40797 | Have they sent for the doctor?" |
40797 | Have you a form here? |
40797 | Have you and Jack been singing hymns on the lawn? |
40797 | Have you finished? |
40797 | Have you got a spade for me to dig in the sand with as I wade? |
40797 | How can I do otherwise?" |
40797 | How can a woman who is just dying for her tea be sentimental?" |
40797 | How could you have borne it alone? |
40797 | How could you say such things, Tom? |
40797 | How did you know, Toby?" |
40797 | How different?" |
40797 | How do you manage it, dear? |
40797 | How much had you in Carmel?" |
40797 | How on earth did she manage to fall so badly down these steps?" |
40797 | I am glad we came-- and you, Kit?" |
40797 | I do n''t say that everybody should trust her, but I am sure she would never do a shabby thing to you or me, or----""Or?" |
40797 | I forget-- no, I do n''t forget that----""What do n''t you forget, Jack?" |
40797 | I say, it is sw-- stewing hot, is n''t it?" |
40797 | Into what new forms would the wreckage be fashioned, these riven planks of a pleasure- boat? |
40797 | Is Miss Murchison there, too?" |
40797 | Is it credible, then, even supposing that I am one of those people who cheat, that I should have done it so clumsily?" |
40797 | Is it not most probable that I have a horror of it only because the punishment is very fresh to me?" |
40797 | Is n''t it so, Jack?" |
40797 | Is n''t it so, Toby?" |
40797 | Is n''t it terrible?" |
40797 | Is n''t the morning too heavenly?" |
40797 | Is that any good? |
40797 | Is the She there?" |
40797 | Is there something wrong, Kit? |
40797 | Is your head very bad?" |
40797 | It is as you wish; how can you doubt it? |
40797 | It was answered immediately, and as the man came into the room,"Indeed; and what is that?" |
40797 | It was at the Haslemeres'', was n''t it? |
40797 | Keep it up?" |
40797 | Kit is in the country still, is she not?" |
40797 | Let''s see, baccarat is the game where you have to try and get nine, is n''t it? |
40797 | Lord Comber was in, and would Toby come up to his sitting- room? |
40797 | May I be driven back to the station at once? |
40797 | May I order the carriage, then, Mrs. Murchison? |
40797 | May Tom come too?" |
40797 | Must you go, Mr. Alington? |
40797 | Nasty for the worm that? |
40797 | No? |
40797 | Not shocked? |
40797 | Now I ask you, Lord Conybeare, will you be on my board? |
40797 | Now which? |
40797 | Now, I ask you, the few times we have played baccarat together, did you ever see me fail to stake?" |
40797 | Now, are you willing to go into all this, or not? |
40797 | Now, shall I come with you? |
40797 | Now, what do you advise me to do, Mr. Alington? |
40797 | Oh, I have felt so terribly ill since this morning, and it is only morning still, is n''t it? |
40797 | Oh, Kit, are you not glad you told him? |
40797 | Oh, am I a fool? |
40797 | Oh, my good child, why look like a boiled owl?" |
40797 | Oh, what does that matter?" |
40797 | Or was it Sir George Eliot who wrote them? |
40797 | Put it in a sequestered corner and periphrase it, will you? |
40797 | Shall I sell out, or not? |
40797 | Shall we go?" |
40797 | She comes in the Anglo- Saxon history, does she not? |
40797 | She would have given anything in the world to say,"What affair of the hundred- pound counter? |
40797 | So Alice and Haslemere and I will see you to- night?" |
40797 | So much_ jeu d''esprit_ about it, is there not? |
40797 | So you and Kit made a bargain?" |
40797 | So you did ask me, did n''t you?" |
40797 | So you''ll be good, and let me manage my own affairs my own way?" |
40797 | So, as he followed her through the folding- doors into the dining- room,"What is the little matter you referred to?" |
40797 | Sugar? |
40797 | Supposing I said I did n''t love you?" |
40797 | Supposing the British public dropped a lot of money and there was an inquiry? |
40797 | There, shall I leave you? |
40797 | They cast you adrift, the Lord knows where, for I inquired about it, without engine, and if you have n''t got an engine, where are you? |
40797 | Use? |
40797 | Very distressing, was it not? |
40797 | Was he amusing? |
40797 | Was it not so?" |
40797 | Was it the game where you try to get nine?" |
40797 | Was that not so?" |
40797 | We like being out of doors, and playing the fool, and having high- tea-- don''t we, Toby?" |
40797 | What can you have thought of me? |
40797 | What could argument do in a case that admitted of none? |
40797 | What difference does that make? |
40797 | What do you do?" |
40797 | What do you suppose I wanted you to get into Parliament for, if you were not going near the House?" |
40797 | What for?" |
40797 | What good does that do?" |
40797 | What is it?" |
40797 | What is the matter?" |
40797 | What is the use of telling him? |
40797 | What is the use of your being secretary to your cousin? |
40797 | What is to be done?" |
40797 | What is your scruple? |
40797 | What more can a butterfly want than a sunny garden with flowers always open? |
40797 | What reason had you to think that?" |
40797 | What will you do with a hundred and forty fire- screens?--or was it a hundred and forty- one? |
40797 | What will you drink?" |
40797 | What would you do?" |
40797 | What''s that book, Mr. Alington? |
40797 | When did it happen?" |
40797 | When? |
40797 | When? |
40797 | Where did you buy it?" |
40797 | Where? |
40797 | Whisky? |
40797 | Who wants to borrow money from you, Lily?" |
40797 | Why do I come and argue with you and quarrel with you like this?" |
40797 | Why should I listen to German bands and drink salt water?" |
40797 | Why tell the disgrace? |
40797 | Why? |
40797 | Will there be a rise in South Africans, do you think?" |
40797 | Will you be better alone?" |
40797 | Will you be my chairman?" |
40797 | Wo n''t you tell me? |
40797 | Would that be true, therefore?" |
40797 | Yes? |
40797 | You are going to play? |
40797 | You believe this?" |
40797 | You do n''t mind my speaking straight out what I think? |
40797 | You will lunch here, of course?" |
40797 | and she used to bleed beneath the Roman rods in the blue poetry book-- or was it pink? |
40797 | are n''t you nervous?" |
40797 | he said,"what have I done to deserve any part of you? |
40797 | went on Lily;"but when was anything worth doing easy? |
40797 | what can be said?" |
40797 | when will you learn that I can not do what you ask if you talk to me in that way?" |
40797 | why make him hate you, perhaps? |
40797 | why make him miserable? |
40797 | will that be a difficulty?" |
41338 | ''Say, Mr. Dround,''he sang out in a pause between two periods,''how about your new switch- track over in Ada Street?'' 41338 Ai n''t up to snuff just yet?" |
41338 | Am I? 41338 And Hillary?" |
41338 | And I could have had it? |
41338 | And how about that judge business? |
41338 | And how''s father? |
41338 | And let you and Strauss freeze out my friends? 41338 And the March interest?" |
41338 | And this is your wife, Van? |
41338 | And what do you advise? |
41338 | And what do you know? 41338 And where do you hail from?" |
41338 | And you put him up to buying that junk at the auction the other day? |
41338 | And you think Strauss is our big dog? |
41338 | And you thought you might as well take the purse, too? 41338 Are you asking for charity-- my charity as well as God''s?" |
41338 | Are you so needed over there in the office? |
41338 | Been farming? |
41338 | Been long at it? |
41338 | Been selling any more pork this morning? |
41338 | But are n''t you a very rich man, Van? |
41338 | But are you sure,she began again,"that that would be the best way? |
41338 | But could n''t you get Will a place somewhere without his knowing about how it came? |
41338 | But suppose I had gambled with your money and lost it? 41338 But suppose I have n''t been to see John?" |
41338 | But what are you going to do about it? |
41338 | But what we want to know first,Slocum drawled gravely,"is, did you take the purse, and, if so, where did you put it?" |
41338 | But you are near the end of it-- and then what? |
41338 | But you went away? |
41338 | But, Judge, where is the purse and my friend Worden''s fur coat? |
41338 | But,said the defence,"you say that it would take positive evidence of their innocence before you could consent to return them not guilty?" |
41338 | Ca n''t Strauss do any better by you than that? 41338 Ca n''t you do something to make them feel differently?" |
41338 | Come to stay? |
41338 | Come, what''s the use of talking good? 41338 Could n''t you find any one else to do your dirty work but your own brother?" |
41338 | Covering? |
41338 | Cox''s Market? |
41338 | Did she give you any little souvenir of the occasion? |
41338 | Did you see the piece in the paper? |
41338 | Did you see the prisoner here take your purse? |
41338 | Did you see what he said last night? |
41338 | Do n''t I do it satisfactorily? |
41338 | Do n''t I know what I am saying? 41338 Do n''t you want a receipt?" |
41338 | Do you consider me a mind reader, miss? |
41338 | Do you hear? |
41338 | Do you know, Van, what you are doing? |
41338 | Do you look for happiness? 41338 Do you mean that you wish to sell your property?" |
41338 | Do you remember how I used to wash while you wiped, when we wanted to get out buggy- riding, May? |
41338 | Do you suppose it''s Dround''s stock? |
41338 | Do you tell me to go? |
41338 | Do you think I should have cared? |
41338 | Do you think that explanation is satisfactory? 41338 Do you think that''s worrying us? |
41338 | Do you want to come with me when I get out? |
41338 | Do you want to serve? |
41338 | Does that make it any better? |
41338 | Ed,I said at once,"have you been talking to any one about that matter of the bonds-- the deal with Lucas Smith?" |
41338 | Everything? 41338 First night?" |
41338 | Going home? |
41338 | Harrington,he began,"what do you know about this talk in the papers?" |
41338 | Has n''t he done all those bad things? 41338 Have I had everything?" |
41338 | Have you been back to that place in Indiana? |
41338 | He and Vitzer( who was the great traction wolf in Chicago)"used to work pretty close together sometimes--""You want to go to the Senate, Van?" |
41338 | How about it, miss? |
41338 | How about that, May? |
41338 | How are the children? |
41338 | How are you getting on? 41338 How did Carboner get hold of your husband''s stock?" |
41338 | How did she land here? 41338 How did you get it?" |
41338 | How did you have the nerve, Van, to run this corner when you knew Dround''s stock was loose? |
41338 | How did you know that? |
41338 | How did you know that? |
41338 | How do you do, Harrington? |
41338 | How long do you think he''ll keep goin''? |
41338 | How much, kid? |
41338 | How, may I ask,he said at last in a low tone,"was this done without my knowledge? |
41338 | I suppose you''ll be leaving this ranch before long? |
41338 | Is it bad? |
41338 | Is that it, Doctor? |
41338 | Is that so, m''son? |
41338 | Is that the only reason? |
41338 | Is that you, Van? |
41338 | It is good, is n''t it? |
41338 | It was a profitable deal,--Carboner wrote you the terms? |
41338 | It''s the time to buy now, is n''t it? |
41338 | Just how? |
41338 | Know where we can find it? |
41338 | Looking for a job? |
41338 | No, what was it? 41338 Now, go home and ask your union if they will stand for that bill?" |
41338 | Now, why ca n''t we avoid a fight and settle this matter between ourselves? 41338 Now,"I said, taking the girl''s hand and looking through her veil into her eyes,"what is the matter? |
41338 | Of course not; but how about Frost? 41338 Or?" |
41338 | Prosecute? 41338 Say, Van,"the Irishman continued,"why do n''t you think it over once more, and see your way to join us? |
41338 | Scar? |
41338 | Seeing the town? |
41338 | Shall I disturb you? |
41338 | So I must be good and pious, as well as educated? |
41338 | So you are an anarchist? 41338 So you get some other help, you do, you do?" |
41338 | So you have come home to live? |
41338 | So you think I could do a mean, sneaky thing like that? |
41338 | So you think you are strong enough to win a fight without a woman''s help? |
41338 | So you thought I might take your bonds off your hands? 41338 So you want him to wait?" |
41338 | So you were talking business with Jane? |
41338 | So you wo n''t take my word for it? |
41338 | Something in the diplomatic service? |
41338 | Stooping to beauty, possibly? |
41338 | Strauss is n''t here, is he? |
41338 | Suppose I took your advice? |
41338 | Suppose that you saw your way clear to go in-- to fight-- what would you do? |
41338 | Supposing some of''em should try to fix_ you_? |
41338 | Tell me, Ed,I asked, more miserable than he,"are you going over to Carmichael to get some more pay for this?" |
41338 | Tell me, why? |
41338 | That''s a good plan-- turning philanthropist, Van? 41338 The first time we have had the pleasure, I believe?" |
41338 | The hand of Jane? |
41338 | The sooner the better; and the less we see of each other in the future, the better, eh? |
41338 | Then how should one keep out of his jaws? |
41338 | Then what is the end of it? |
41338 | They have to print something, do n''t they? 41338 To God? |
41338 | To whom? |
41338 | To- night I have no doubts; but to- morrow-- who knows? |
41338 | Van, what is a panic? |
41338 | Van, you do n''t believe in bribing people and such things? 41338 Well, Edward?" |
41338 | Well, if that strong evidence of their innocence was not introduced, then you want to convict them? |
41338 | Well, my son, maybe you know better than I what they do with their money? 41338 Well, that would n''t be much-- only I am going to try for more than I deserve-- see?" |
41338 | Well, what is it? |
41338 | Well, what will you do for me? |
41338 | Well,I said,"what are_ you_ after, John?" |
41338 | Well,Slocum finally asked, as he was leaving me,"what are you going to do about this pinch?" |
41338 | Well? |
41338 | Well? |
41338 | Well? |
41338 | Well? |
41338 | What about it? |
41338 | What are you getting? |
41338 | What are you standing there for? 41338 What are you two talking about in this intimate way?" |
41338 | What are your terms? |
41338 | What brings you people back so soon? 41338 What did it cost you, Van?" |
41338 | What did the lady say when she found she was wrong? |
41338 | What do you care? |
41338 | What do you know about sausage? |
41338 | What do you mean by saying such a thing? |
41338 | What do you mean? |
41338 | What do you think is going to happen to this concern? 41338 What do you want of me?" |
41338 | What do you want of me? |
41338 | What do you want? |
41338 | What does it mean-- what has Van been doing? |
41338 | What else are we here for except to make money? |
41338 | What for? 41338 What have you to do with that dishonest Carmichael? |
41338 | What is it, my dear? |
41338 | What of it, anyhow? |
41338 | What shall we do? |
41338 | What sort of a man is this Judge Garretson? |
41338 | What were you doing in the Drounds''garden? |
41338 | What will Harrington represent in the Senate, assuming that he will be able to buy his way there? 41338 What will you do for the others?" |
41338 | What would I do with a month''s vacation, John? 41338 What would_ you_ do, tell me, if a parcel of scamps were holding you up for the benefit of your enemies? |
41338 | What''s happened, kid? |
41338 | What''s that? 41338 What''s the matter now?" |
41338 | What''s the matter with Jasonville, Edward? |
41338 | What''s the matter with Sarah, Van? |
41338 | What''s up? |
41338 | What''s up? |
41338 | What''s wrong with your concern? |
41338 | What? 41338 Where be yer goin'', Van?" |
41338 | Where did they get it, then? 41338 Where is it, then? |
41338 | Where''s Grace? |
41338 | Where''s the young woman? |
41338 | Who are your folks? 41338 Who else?" |
41338 | Who were selling yesterday? |
41338 | Whose bread are you eating now, to- day? |
41338 | Whose is it? |
41338 | Why did n''t you ask? |
41338 | Why did n''t you come right out, John? |
41338 | Why do n''t Dround''s handle sausage? |
41338 | Why do n''t you sell? |
41338 | Why do n''t you serve? |
41338 | Why do you blush for it? |
41338 | Why do you think so? |
41338 | Why not Harrington& Cox? |
41338 | Why not? |
41338 | Why now more than ever before? |
41338 | Why should you want to know? 41338 Will the Crosses lose all their money?" |
41338 | Will you let the big dog Strauss eat us? |
41338 | Wo n''t you step into the garden with me? |
41338 | Wo n''t you try to show your friends that they were mistaken in you? |
41338 | Would it be dishonest, Van? |
41338 | Would it mean all that? |
41338 | You are n''t going this way? |
41338 | You are n''t planning to stay, John? |
41338 | You are thinking of moving to New York? 41338 You do n''t begrudge me the little help I gave you-- the small share I had in your fortune?" |
41338 | You do n''t see them about him, do you, Doctor? |
41338 | You know him, eh? |
41338 | You know how I feel? |
41338 | You mean Mrs. Dround did it all? |
41338 | You mean on account of that old story? 41338 You mean what the papers say?" |
41338 | You plan to feed this land? |
41338 | You saw him? |
41338 | You think I must have a great deal of money? |
41338 | You think it might be hard work for me to prove my patriotism to the people? 41338 You think it no good?" |
41338 | You think so? 41338 You think so? |
41338 | You want to see me? |
41338 | You will, will you? |
41338 | You wish, if there is any more of this kind of thing, I would get some one else to do my business? 41338 You''ll prosecute him?" |
41338 | You''ll try to fix me for this? |
41338 | Your purse has gone? 41338 ''I say, Dround,''he broke out again pretty soon,''we should like to hear what your firm does when it wants any little favors from the city? 41338 142''Young feller, do you reckon you can buck up against me and the Strauss crowd with that one- horse rig?''" |
41338 | 228"''Only this,''I said slowly,''I do n''t sell out to you''"234"''Could n''t you find any one else to do your dirty work but your own brother?''" |
41338 | 49"''Do you hear?'' |
41338 | A desk in the inside office, I s''pose?" |
41338 | After a time he ripped out:--"You are n''t thinking of staying with old Dround?" |
41338 | After a while he interrupted me in a kind of thin whisper, as if his mind had been absent all the time:--"What about this Judge Garretson? |
41338 | After supper the others left us in the dining room, and when we were alone Hillary said:--"Well, what do you think of the firm name? |
41338 | All well, I hope?" |
41338 | And I seemed to see her dark eyebrows arched with scorn at my weakness, her thin lips curl disdainfully, as if to say:"Was this to be your finish? |
41338 | And if I love him? |
41338 | And if a good fate put it in your power to help him-- you, the poor cripple in your chair-- help him to win his race, would n''t you be thankful? |
41338 | And now, how much is it?" |
41338 | And philanthropy? |
41338 | And the end, what was it? |
41338 | And what''s the matter with the Webbs and the Coopers? |
41338 | Are you going to stay with Mr. Dround, after all? |
41338 | Are you?" |
41338 | As I kissed her, she exclaimed:--"Where have you been, Van?" |
41338 | As I kissed the stained face, she awoke and looked at me wonderingly, murmuring half asleep:--"What is it, Van? |
41338 | As I stepped out of the door I turned for the last time:--"Ca n''t you let me do something for my brother, who is a sick man?" |
41338 | As I stood waiting for Mr. Carboner, a barge laden with lumber cast its shadow through the dirty windows...."And what may you want of me?" |
41338 | Beyond business, what was there for me? |
41338 | But a mere woman, poor, weak creature, is tied with a short rope-- do you know what that means? |
41338 | But at last I burst out:--"May, why would n''t you take that money I sent you while Will was away at the war?" |
41338 | But ca n''t you feel friendly? |
41338 | But did you see how she treated the Carmichaels? |
41338 | But how about their money? |
41338 | But what was her interest in the scheme? |
41338 | Can the degradation of that once honorable body be carried to a greater depth?" |
41338 | Can we have this business aired in court? |
41338 | Can you stand taking orders from your junior?" |
41338 | Carmichael?" |
41338 | Come, that''s fair, is n''t it?" |
41338 | Conceived for good or for ill, brought into being by fraud or daring-- what man could judge_ their_ worth? |
41338 | Could I leave them now? |
41338 | Did I ever do a mean thing to you? |
41338 | Did I want to make it count? |
41338 | Did he tell you about my wanting him to go down to my place in the country until he got well and strong?" |
41338 | Did n''t I give fifteen cents when we had n''t but twenty between us? |
41338 | Did n''t I try to live on the rancid, rotten stuff? |
41338 | Did you come over here to- night to tell me that?" |
41338 | Did you know him? |
41338 | Did you or did you not pay money for this privilege?" |
41338 | Did you sell what you knew to the_ Nationalist_, or to Frost and his crowd?" |
41338 | Do n''t you believe I have got some real patriotism in me?" |
41338 | Do n''t you believe it? |
41338 | Do n''t you know? |
41338 | Do n''t you think it''s horrid of them to talk so?" |
41338 | Do they make''em for you, or for Joe Strauss? |
41338 | Do you know all, child? |
41338 | Do you see that, after all, in spite of all the talk about genius and destiny and being self- made and all that, I did not win the game by myself? |
41338 | Do you think I am a pawnbroker?" |
41338 | Do you think that I have had_ all_ the joy?" |
41338 | Do you think that is the right kind of partner for a simple woman?" |
41338 | Do you think that it will be all right by that time? |
41338 | Does business tempt you so much that you ca n''t resist it even now?" |
41338 | Does that make you proud?" |
41338 | Dround?" |
41338 | Dround?" |
41338 | Finally he asked:--"Well, Harrington, how do you find matters now that you have had time to look into the situation?" |
41338 | Finally he said it:--"So you thought you could do better by sticking with the old man?" |
41338 | Finally he whispered almost solemnly:--"Want to make big money?" |
41338 | Food and drink, a place to sleep in, some clothes-- comfort for my wife and children-- what else? |
41338 | For a keepsake, eh?" |
41338 | Free trade or college education?" |
41338 | Got them there?" |
41338 | Had we been fools to put it aside? |
41338 | Harrington, who has the presumption to look lustfully on the chair of our late honorable Senator? |
41338 | Harrington?" |
41338 | Harrington?" |
41338 | Harrington?" |
41338 | Harrington?" |
41338 | Harrington?" |
41338 | Harrington?" |
41338 | Have I helped you, believed in you, all these years, to have you fall now?" |
41338 | Have you?" |
41338 | He flecked off a stray particle of soot that had lodged on the big pink in his buttonhole as he remarked casually:--"Is that so? |
41338 | He said at once:''You mean the jedge''s brother- in- law? |
41338 | He was caught in the act, was n''t he?" |
41338 | How does it appear on the books?" |
41338 | How is Mr. Carmichael? |
41338 | I exclaimed,"whatever has happened to you?" |
41338 | I know where my duty lies,"--he straightened himself with slow pompousness,--"How are the children? |
41338 | I put my hand on his little tumbled head, and turned to his mother:--"I suppose you would n''t let him touch my money, either?" |
41338 | I think her first words were,--"Do you come this way often?" |
41338 | I wanted to say to her:"Which will you have? |
41338 | If he loves me? |
41338 | Is it best to run to your enemy, crying for quarter?" |
41338 | Is it true in the least way?" |
41338 | Is n''t that Mr. Cross''s bank?" |
41338 | Is that enough?" |
41338 | Is that satisfactory?'' |
41338 | Is this the right road? |
41338 | It can be done if--""If Mr. Dround will consent,"she finished my sentence,"and give his aid in raising the money?" |
41338 | It is n''t true?" |
41338 | It is time for my medicine, is n''t it, Jane?" |
41338 | It was your money that Carboner risked? |
41338 | It''s pretty mean, Van, do n''t you think so?" |
41338 | John helped him out brutally:--"You wonder whether we had to grease anybody''s paw about that switch- track over in Ada Street?" |
41338 | Joyce?" |
41338 | Marble?" |
41338 | Mere wealth, mere power of that kind, will it satisfy?... |
41338 | My husband-- you understand? |
41338 | Now what are you going to do about it?" |
41338 | Now what are you going to do about it?''" |
41338 | Now what are you going to do about it?_"] The big Irishman plumped his two red fists on Mr. Dround''s desk and glared at him. |
41338 | One day Carmichael said to me:--"So you''re a sausage maker, after all, Van?" |
41338 | Or maybe you have gone back to collecting again?" |
41338 | Pretty soon I said:--"Wo n''t you ride to school with me, Miss May?" |
41338 | Pretty soon John said fiercely:--"It''s my business to look after such matters?" |
41338 | Renshaw?" |
41338 | Say, Harrington, do you remember how you scalped poor old McGee back in the days when you were doing odd jobs at Dround''s? |
41338 | She called to me:--"Mister, mister, what will you do now?" |
41338 | She spoke the idea that was in all our minds: how did he and the others make their money? |
41338 | She waited a moment, and then asked hesitatingly:--"How''s your Sarah? |
41338 | So I said rather foolishly to father:--"Will you give me a few dollars to start me with? |
41338 | So you were picking up the lady''s handkerchief? |
41338 | So, I thought, why should n''t the packing- house put up a superior kind of sausage in nice little boxes, with a fancy name? |
41338 | Suddenly I remembered where I had seen that face before, and when she looked up again I said:--"Did you ever find that purse, Miss Gentles?" |
41338 | Suddenly he stopped and addressed me in his thin, high voice:--"What do you think, Mr. Harrington, of this infernal business?" |
41338 | Suppose I should take this old fellow''s scrawl over to Orlando Bates, and the president of the Tenth National should ask me what it meant? |
41338 | Tell me what you will do with this corporation-- what next?" |
41338 | The big, permanent motive remains: there is the broad highroad-- but why was it left, why this turn and double across the main track? |
41338 | The millionnaires there at Washington make the laws of this free country, and who do they make them for? |
41338 | The police? |
41338 | Then May asked in a queer little voice:--"Tell me, Van, is there anything in that story? |
41338 | They think that you are thin in the waist? |
41338 | Those were your friends, were they?" |
41338 | To Strauss? |
41338 | We have no reason to quarrel, have we?" |
41338 | Well, I hope, and prospering?" |
41338 | Well, what of it?" |
41338 | Were they better men before the eyes of God these eight misguided fools whom we were about to punish? |
41338 | What are the facts?" |
41338 | What are they kicking for, anyway?" |
41338 | What are you thinking of, Van Harrington?" |
41338 | What business has he with you? |
41338 | What did I do there? |
41338 | What do I want to light out for now?" |
41338 | What do you pay for every basket of coal you put in your stoves? |
41338 | What do you pay for meat? |
41338 | What does it mean? |
41338 | What does that mean?" |
41338 | What else is there for us to do? |
41338 | What for?" |
41338 | What good does it do the public for you to refuse their price? |
41338 | What had they done to make life? |
41338 | What harm does that do us? |
41338 | What has happened? |
41338 | What is it, Van? |
41338 | What is the first step?" |
41338 | What is the good of that? |
41338 | What makes you want to go short of pork?" |
41338 | What matters it? |
41338 | What separation does a little distance put between you and me? |
41338 | What was that partner of Mr. Slocum''s sent down there for?" |
41338 | What was the golden road? |
41338 | What was their virtue good for? |
41338 | What were you thinking when you did this dirty piece of business? |
41338 | What will Farson say to that story of Lokes''s? |
41338 | What would you think of that? |
41338 | What would your business be worth if it were n''t for John Carmichael? |
41338 | What''s the good word?" |
41338 | What''s the name of the place?" |
41338 | What''s your figure?" |
41338 | What''s your name, m''son?" |
41338 | Whatever was there in Chicago in 1877 to live for but Success? |
41338 | When Miss Gentles had gone he remarked in a gossiping way:--"So you know the young woman?" |
41338 | When we had said good- by and were in the carriage, Sarah remarked reflectively:--"Jane looks like an old woman-- don''t you think so, Van?" |
41338 | Where could it have gone to?" |
41338 | Where was it to be had? |
41338 | Where was it? |
41338 | Who are you?" |
41338 | Who did the most harm to society, they or that pale- faced Fielden, who might have been a saint instead of an anarchist?... |
41338 | Who made up the"we"in this firm of Rip Van Winkle bankers? |
41338 | Why are people growing poor?" |
41338 | Why did I come to the city? |
41338 | Why did you have to take him?" |
41338 | Why not go myself-- why not enlist? |
41338 | Why not take a seat in"the millionnaires''club,"as the newspapers called that honorable body, the United States Senate? |
41338 | Why not think of it? |
41338 | Why should I be pestered like this, why should I lose my brother and May, why should Sarah be hurt, because they were too good to do as I had done? |
41338 | Why should she bother with the packing business? |
41338 | Why should you?" |
41338 | Why, did n''t they kill more''n twice as many men over at McCormick''s only the other day, just because the boys were making a bit of a disturbance? |
41338 | Why?" |
41338 | Will he represent the great state of Illinois,--the state of Lincoln, of Douglas, of Oglesby? |
41338 | With that idea I burst out at last:--"I''ve been thinking of one thing all along, Slo-- and that is: What can I do for you when I am Senator? |
41338 | Wo n''t the old woman''s food taste slick to- night? |
41338 | Wo n''t you come and see her? |
41338 | Would one of us like a fat job, where there was n''t much work except special times-- a gay kind of place, where we could see something of life? |
41338 | Would you deny yourself the little I have taken from you, his wife, if it were yours to take and_ mine_ to lose? |
41338 | Would you put tail between legs and get out and leave your bone to the other dog?" |
41338 | Yes, and what then? |
41338 | Yet did the Strauss crowd dare to sell it short in this brazen way? |
41338 | Yet-- I wonder-- yes, my doubt has grown so large since I saw you that it moves me to write all this.... Will_ that_ be enough? |
41338 | You are still young in spite of--""The gray hair and the two hundred and forty pounds? |
41338 | You do n''t believe Will was cut out to be a thinker? |
41338 | You do n''t think that Frost and his pals are going to sit quiet after such a roast? |
41338 | You have to borrow a great deal of money and pay high for it?" |
41338 | You know the Wordens, do n''t you, Judge?" |
41338 | You know your Horace, Judge?" |
41338 | You remember that investment you were kind enough to make for me a few years ago?" |
41338 | You took the peaches, you remember?" |
41338 | You understand?" |
41338 | You want to sell out this packing business, some day, eh? |
41338 | You''ve come back?" |
41338 | [ Illustration:_ I pointed out the great currents of world trade._]"This is but the beginning, then-- this packing company?" |
41338 | [ Illustration:_"Do you hear?" |
41338 | [ Illustration:_"What do you know about sausage?" |
41338 | do you want a vacation? |
41338 | he asked._]"Why not get some old rabbi and make kosher meat-- the real article? |
41338 | the Irishman roared"58"My part was to drive a wagon for Dround at fifteen a week"59"''What do you know about sausage?'' |
37249 | ''Mirapolis''? |
37249 | A city?--in this reservoir bottom? 37249 Am I my brother''s keeper?" |
37249 | And Gomorrah? |
37249 | And about this Massingale affair-- you will not interfere again? |
37249 | And let him blackmail me? 37249 And still you wo n''t print this?" |
37249 | And the government? |
37249 | And the next minute? |
37249 | And the other? |
37249 | And the source could n''t possibly have become contaminated by the Cortwright germs? |
37249 | And the structure itself-- how high is it to be? |
37249 | And what started you off into the memory woods, particularly, to- night? |
37249 | And you are carrying that millstone? 37249 And you are trying to tell me that father made a hundred thousand dollars just in those few hours by buying and selling Mirapolis lots? |
37249 | And you have----? |
37249 | And you met him? 37249 And you-- you believed all this?" |
37249 | And your labor? |
37249 | Another seven? |
37249 | Anything else remarkable up your sleeve? |
37249 | Anything new? |
37249 | Are you never going to forget that senseless bit of twaddle? |
37249 | Are you sure? 37249 Are you-- are you_ plumb_ sure you can spare it?" |
37249 | Are you? |
37249 | As you were saying? |
37249 | Before Congress convenes, you mean? |
37249 | Believing that it was for the best interests of the railroad to come here? |
37249 | Brouillard, do you know what you are talking about? |
37249 | Brouillard,he grated huskily,"does this mean that you''re breaking with us, once for all?" |
37249 | But how? |
37249 | But now you think he is going to make his bluff good? |
37249 | But now,she queried--"now, I suppose, you have become reconciled?" |
37249 | But tell me, what would you do with your pot of rainbow gold-- if you should find it? |
37249 | But where is she now? |
37249 | But will you? 37249 But you did advise Mr. Ford to build the Extension?" |
37249 | But you have made the plans for this power plant, have n''t you? |
37249 | But you have the order? |
37249 | But your part in this horrible plot, Victor? |
37249 | Catching you, too, is it, Victor? |
37249 | Chief engineer, eh? 37249 Comparatively rich, you say?--and you washed this spoonful out of a single pan?" |
37249 | Curious that this particular fly should drop into your pot of ointment on your birthday, was n''t it? |
37249 | Did I? |
37249 | Did it agree with you? |
37249 | Did n''t I? 37249 Did n''t Smith know better than to take her down there at such a time as this?" |
37249 | Did you find out? |
37249 | Did you imagine that your workmen were any less human than other people? |
37249 | Did you sign those notes personally, or as president of the new company? |
37249 | Did you think we were going to cut the melon and hand you out a piece of the rind? 37249 Did you?--and before you had a stake in the game? |
37249 | Do n''t they? |
37249 | Do n''t you ever get beyond that? |
37249 | Do n''t you? 37249 Do you call_ that_ civilization?" |
37249 | Do you do it as other men do?--just to hear how it sounds? |
37249 | Do you know the reason why it was given? |
37249 | Do you know what I''m thinking about, Mr. Brouillard? 37249 Do you know, Brouillard, Hosford gets on my nerves, too? |
37249 | Do you mean to say that real farms with green things growing on them can be made out of that frightful desert we drove over yesterday afternoon? |
37249 | Do you really believe that? 37249 Do you think my daughter could walk it?" |
37249 | Do you want me to be frivolous or serious? |
37249 | Do you want me to say that I should have missed a great deal? 37249 Does he make that a command?" |
37249 | Does it date back to the handicap? 37249 Does n''t he want to make money?" |
37249 | Does the order cover more than the work on the dam? |
37249 | Does this formal notice that the waste- gates will be closed three weeks from to- morrow go as it stands? |
37249 | Even if it should give you another attack of the''seeing things''? |
37249 | Extenuating circumstances-- is that what you mean? 37249 For example?" |
37249 | Fuel for your power plant?--wood I take it? |
37249 | H''m,said the millionaire;"a cement plant, eh? |
37249 | Has it never occurred to you that she may be just a woman-- like other women? 37249 Has she told you so?" |
37249 | Have n''t you heard how the men of the desert camps kill each other for the chance to pick up a lady''s handkerchief? |
37249 | Have you been given to understand that this office is in any sense a tail to your Improvement Company''s kite? |
37249 | Have you heard the talk of the street? 37249 Have you seen Miss Massingale since noon?" |
37249 | He means to give you the casting vote? 37249 How about those notes in the bank? |
37249 | How are you, Mr. Massingale? 37249 How can any one predict that when Congress is not in session?" |
37249 | How can you know that? |
37249 | How can you tell? 37249 How did you know that I have been wanting to come up here once more before everything is changed?" |
37249 | How did you know? |
37249 | How do you know I gave him a hundred thousand dollars? |
37249 | How does that strike you? |
37249 | How is the line to- night, Sanford-- pretty clear? |
37249 | How straight is your tip, Harlan? |
37249 | How was that? |
37249 | How? |
37249 | Huh? |
37249 | I asked you who has been gossiping about me; not Grizzy? |
37249 | I knew, or thought I knew, that you were miles away, over in the Buckskin; and how could I call you? |
37249 | I suppose Harlan is getting ready to exploit the new sensation right? |
37249 | I want you to send a wire to Red Butte telling the smelter people that you will be glad to have them handle the''Little Susan''ore."And if I do? |
37249 | I wonder if you know how little I care? |
37249 | If it had succeeded? 37249 If they should happen to uncover a gold reef just now it would simplify matters immensely for Mirapolis, would n''t it? |
37249 | In less than a hundredth part of that time you''ll be at the top of the Reclamation- Service pay- roll-- won''t that help out? |
37249 | Is it a good reason? |
37249 | Is it business? |
37249 | Is it my fault that Massingale ca n''t pay his debts? |
37249 | Is it so? 37249 Is n''t that your notion?" |
37249 | Is she-- the one incomparable she-- worth it, Victor? |
37249 | Is that all you have to say? |
37249 | Is that all you have to say? |
37249 | Is that all? |
37249 | Is that the new name? |
37249 | It means a great deal to you, does n''t it? |
37249 | It''s about a hundred and twenty miles from this to El Gato, on the Grand Canyon, is n''t it, Mr. Brouillard? 37249 Let''s see,"said the newsman thoughtfully;"what is there worth taking that they did n''t take in the_ sauve qui peut_? |
37249 | May I break in with a bit of bad news? |
37249 | Meaning that he is too uncompromisingly honest to be one of us? 37249 Miss Massingale? |
37249 | My brother? |
37249 | No? |
37249 | Now for the business end of the deal-- why do n''t you sit down? |
37249 | Now tell me about the''Little Susan''; is the Blue- grass farm looming up comfortably on the eastern edge of things? |
37249 | Of course you do n''t take any stock in the rumor that the government will call a halt? |
37249 | Oh, yes; let me see; are they due to- day? |
37249 | On the dam, you mean? 37249 Ought I to know the gentleman?" |
37249 | Sell it? 37249 Shall I do what you would have me do, Amy? |
37249 | Since when? |
37249 | So you''re_ that_ kind of a fire- eater, are you? 37249 Still you say you do n''t want to scrap?" |
37249 | Supposing it was-- what''s the difference? 37249 Tell me one thing, Brouillard: what is your stake in the Massingale game? |
37249 | That brings on more talk-- about a thousand miles of it, does n''t it? |
37249 | That is your challenge, is it? |
37249 | That night, you mean? 37249 The Cortwright people want the road, do n''t they?" |
37249 | The Massingale mine, eh? |
37249 | The way to keep me from talking is to do it all yourself; what happened to me last night? |
37249 | The-- what? |
37249 | Then it is your opinion that if this were printed it would do the business? |
37249 | Then what happened? |
37249 | Then why are you so anxious to make old David a rich man at my expense? 37249 Then why did you do it? |
37249 | Then you have n''t heard? 37249 Then you will advise against the building of the Extension?" |
37249 | Under guard? |
37249 | We ca n''t stand for any more chaos than the gods have already doped out for us, can we? |
37249 | Well, did you succeed in placing the lady? |
37249 | Well, then, how about the choice between two evils? 37249 Well, what more do you want? |
37249 | Well, what of it? |
37249 | Well, why was n''t it fair? |
37249 | Well,said Grislow again,"what of it? |
37249 | Well,was the millionaire''s greeting,"you waited to be sent for, did n''t you?" |
37249 | Well? |
37249 | Well? |
37249 | Well? |
37249 | Well? |
37249 | Well? |
37249 | Well? |
37249 | What are the spellbinders doing, Grizzy? |
37249 | What are you going to do about it, Victor? |
37249 | What can you possibly know about the Assyrians? |
37249 | What can you, or any man who sets himself apart as you do, know about the troubles and besetments of ordinary people? 37249 What did I say? |
37249 | What did I say? |
37249 | What did he tell you? |
37249 | What do you know, Brouillard? |
37249 | What do you want this time? |
37249 | What does it mean to you-- to you, personally, and apart from the money your father might make out of it, Amy? |
37249 | What fact? |
37249 | What has all this bubble blowing got to do with the building of a temporary power dam and the setting up of a couple of cement kilns? |
37249 | What has given you the impression that you own me, Mr. Cortwright? 37249 What have I done to make you forget how to talk?" |
37249 | What is it? |
37249 | What is the active principle of your''sevens''--or have n''t you figured it out? |
37249 | What is the one thing you would n''t sell? |
37249 | What is your need? |
37249 | What is your tip? |
37249 | What makes you think that? |
37249 | What sort of a bug have you got in your cosmos this morning, Brouillard? 37249 What was the threat?" |
37249 | What would I do? 37249 What would you do with it? |
37249 | What''s come over you, lately, Victor? 37249 What''s doing, and who''s doing it?" |
37249 | What''s got into you? 37249 What''s that up there?" |
37249 | What''s the odds if you go to it and bring back the money? 37249 What? |
37249 | When have I ever bleated when I should have kept still? |
37249 | When is it? 37249 Where does the Honorable All- the- rest keep himself?" |
37249 | Where was it you saw them, Castner? |
37249 | Who is Lord Falkland? |
37249 | Who is your treasurer? |
37249 | Who said that? |
37249 | Why do n''t you drop in once in a while and give me the run of things? |
37249 | Why do you ask me? |
37249 | Why do you doubt it? 37249 Why do you want to know?" |
37249 | Why not? |
37249 | Why not? |
37249 | Why not? |
37249 | Why not? |
37249 | Why should n''t I say it? 37249 Why should n''t we take to- day, the only day we can be sure of having, and use and enjoy it while it is ours? |
37249 | Why should you doubt it? |
37249 | Why should you? 37249 Why the devil did n''t you fellows turn out?" |
37249 | Why''of course''? |
37249 | Will you come along? |
37249 | Will you go with me, Victor? 37249 Wo n''t you?" |
37249 | Yes? |
37249 | Yes? |
37249 | You are Amy-- and this is that other world you used to talk about, is n''t it? |
37249 | You are certain that your information did n''t originate right here in Mirapolis-- in Mr. Cortwright''s office, to locate it more exactly? |
37249 | You are ready to let go, are you? |
37249 | You are selling Mirapolis holdings short to- day, Garner? |
37249 | You could n''t conjure an omen out of that, could you? 37249 You did this deliberately, Victor, weighing all the consequences? |
37249 | You do n''t deny them? |
37249 | You have n''t been tumbling into the ditch with Leshington and Griffith and the rest of us and making love to the little sister, have you? |
37249 | You interested yourself? 37249 You mean that I have brought my cut finger to you?" |
37249 | You saw President Ford after I did; what did he say when he was over here? |
37249 | You say you saw the money in father''s hands; tell me, Victor, did you see him pay it into the bank? |
37249 | You say you''re goin''down to the Buckskin right away? 37249 You say your father has borrowed of the bank-- is Mr. Cortwright mixed up in the loan in any way?" |
37249 | You sent for me? |
37249 | You will marry her? |
37249 | You would n''t let pride-- a false pride-- stand in the way of her happiness? |
37249 | You''ll be up on the stagings yourself, wo n''t you? |
37249 | You''ll bet money h- on dat?--h- all de money you got? |
37249 | You''ll rob an old man first, and then call him a thief and set the sheriff on him, will you----? |
37249 | You''ll surely want to give me my instructions a little beforehand, wo n''t you? 37249 You''re Brillard, the government man, I take it?" |
37249 | You''re giving Garner a blank card to buy for your account? 37249 You''ve borrowed to meet these notes?" |
37249 | You''ve had it out with Cortwright? |
37249 | You, Victor? |
37249 | You? 37249 You?" |
37249 | You? |
37249 | Your business, maybe; it falls right in your line, does n''t it? |
37249 | Your father is n''t at home? |
37249 | Ze dinnare-- she was h- all right, M''sieu''Brouillard? |
37249 | _ He had the money?_ Where did he get it? |
37249 | _ He had the money?_ Where did he get it? |
37249 | Am I making it plain?" |
37249 | And he has spent ninety thousand dollars on the''Little Susan''in sixty days? |
37249 | And how will you get it here?" |
37249 | And the girl on horseback? |
37249 | And then, without any bush beating, the critical question was fired point- blank:"What becomes of all these fellows you are dropping? |
37249 | And then, without warning:"What if I should tell you that the railroad is not coming to the Niquoia, Amy?" |
37249 | And then:"Where is he now? |
37249 | And then:"You''re one of the Reclamation engineers? |
37249 | And your freedom-- how have you made a hundred thousand dollars in these few weeks? |
37249 | And yours is----?" |
37249 | And, besides, there''s Amy; you owe her something, do n''t you?--or do n''t you? |
37249 | Any truth in that?" |
37249 | Anybody seen him since?" |
37249 | Are n''t we just as far from a carbide shop as we are from the dynamo? |
37249 | Are you a silent partner in the''Little Susan''?" |
37249 | Are you all packed?" |
37249 | Are you asleep?" |
37249 | Are you catching on?" |
37249 | Are you going to be_ very_ busy this afternoon?" |
37249 | Are you going to marry the girl?" |
37249 | Are you going? |
37249 | Besides, did n''t Brouillard say I was to get an extension if I could?" |
37249 | Brought the cash, did you? |
37249 | Brouillard took another long minute at the office window before he said:"What would you do if you were in my place, Murray?" |
37249 | Brouillard was pointedly occupying himself at his desk, but he looked up long enough to say:"Whiskey, you mean?" |
37249 | Brouillard?" |
37249 | Brouillard?" |
37249 | Brouillard?" |
37249 | Brouillard?" |
37249 | But about this railroad fizzle; I do n''t relish the notion of having our little joke sprung on us before we''re ready to laugh, do you? |
37249 | But if you had a cut finger you would n''t go to a man in hell to get it tied up, would you?" |
37249 | But in this thing which you are proposing there are issues involved which----""You want time to think it over? |
37249 | But tell me, what are some of the things that may happen?" |
37249 | But what of it?" |
37249 | But why not, Mr. Brouillard? |
37249 | But you say the stock was to be released when the notes were paid-- what was to happen if they were not paid?" |
37249 | Buy corner lots in Niqoyastcà djeburg?" |
37249 | By the way, did you know that he_ is_ Lord Falkland now? |
37249 | Ca n''t you contrive to get word to me, some way-- after it is all over? |
37249 | Can we make the road pay if we bring it here? |
37249 | Can you give me my present figure?... |
37249 | Can you read minds and hearts as you do your maps and drawings? |
37249 | Can you remember the words?" |
37249 | Cortwright?" |
37249 | Cortwright?" |
37249 | Cortwright?" |
37249 | Cortwright?" |
37249 | Cortwright?" |
37249 | Did n''t I say just now that the town was crazy with excitement when I left to come up here?" |
37249 | Did n''t we agree that that money was poisoned? |
37249 | Did old David Massingale get out of J. Wesley''s clutches before the lightning struck?" |
37249 | Digging for information, I suppose?" |
37249 | Do I make it clear?" |
37249 | Do n''t you believe it?" |
37249 | Do n''t you know that it is only the very vainest people who say that?" |
37249 | Do n''t you know that?" |
37249 | Do you believe in Freiborg''s theory of the multiple personality? |
37249 | Do you get that, Murray?" |
37249 | Do you know that I once had the pleasure of introducing your good father to my bankers in Chicago? |
37249 | Do you know what that plank- faced organizer has got up his sleeve? |
37249 | Do you know what the men have named you? |
37249 | Do you know why? |
37249 | Do you remember that?" |
37249 | Do you wonder that I have lost the knack?" |
37249 | Does n''t it look good to you any more?" |
37249 | Does n''t your brother know that it is illegal to shoot a trout stream?" |
37249 | Facing them as I am obliged to face them, I am telling you-- but what''s the use? |
37249 | Father thinks too much of making money-- a great deal too much; and you----""Well?" |
37249 | First rate, I hope?" |
37249 | Fits like the glove on a pretty girl''s arm, does n''t it?" |
37249 | Ford?" |
37249 | Ford?" |
37249 | Garner, cancel my order to sell, will you? |
37249 | Grislow?" |
37249 | Had I ort to?" |
37249 | Had he not expressly declared that the object of the desert automobile trip was mere tourist curiosity? |
37249 | Has Gomorrah changed it?" |
37249 | Has anybody found out yet who touched off the gold- mounted sky- rocket?" |
37249 | Have n''t you any imagination?" |
37249 | Have n''t you met him? |
37249 | Have you ever been in the Blue- grass country?" |
37249 | Have you ever seen any vouchers for the money spent?" |
37249 | Have you got time to''put us next''?" |
37249 | He fights his way to his ends without caring much for the consequences to others; but tell me-- haven''t you been doing the same thing?" |
37249 | He will build the Extension if you advise it?" |
37249 | Honestly, now, Harlan, what do you think about it yourself? |
37249 | Hosford?" |
37249 | How about that?" |
37249 | How did you settle it finally?" |
37249 | How far is it up to where you are going to build your dam?" |
37249 | How is Steve this evening?" |
37249 | How is Steve?" |
37249 | How is the boy getting along? |
37249 | How is young Massingale getting along?" |
37249 | How long would it take you to get action in the Washington matter, do you think?" |
37249 | How much is it going to cost us to stay in?" |
37249 | How much is it going to cost us?" |
37249 | How much money have you got?" |
37249 | How much more time will you need to enable you to get returns from your shipments? |
37249 | How will that do?" |
37249 | How''m I goin''to secure you for this?" |
37249 | How_ can_ you be sure?" |
37249 | I thought you told me you merely went down and took a look-- didn''t butt in?" |
37249 | If there were time-- but you say this is the last day?" |
37249 | If you were the executive committee of the Pacific Southwestern, would you, or would you not, build the Extension? |
37249 | Is a man a mere bit of driftwood, to be tossed about in the froth of any wave that happens to come along, as Freiborg says he is?" |
37249 | Is it ever justifiable to do evil that good may come?" |
37249 | Is it true that you''ve had orders from Washington within the past few days to cut your force on the dam one half?" |
37249 | Is n''t it a part of your job?" |
37249 | Is n''t it worth something to realize that?" |
37249 | Is n''t that about the size of it?" |
37249 | Is n''t that so?" |
37249 | Is n''t there a possibility, just the least little shadow of a possibility, that I do n''t deserve to be punished?" |
37249 | Is that Boyer-- Niquoia National?... |
37249 | Is that all?" |
37249 | Is that asking too much?" |
37249 | Is that explicit enough?" |
37249 | Is that it?" |
37249 | Is that the plan?" |
37249 | Is that true?" |
37249 | Is there anything we can do?" |
37249 | Is your father here?" |
37249 | Is your telephone line up here in operation?" |
37249 | Is your work going to start up again? |
37249 | It figgered out this- a- way in the talk: they said, what''s the use o''takin''the money out o''one pocket and puttin''it into the other? |
37249 | It is to be war between us from this on?" |
37249 | Lack of money? |
37249 | Looks like I needed a janitor to look after my upper story, do n''t it? |
37249 | Massingale?" |
37249 | Massingale?" |
37249 | Massingale?" |
37249 | Mirapolis is already a city of frenzied knaves and dupes; did you realize that you were taking the chance of turning it into a wicked pandemonium? |
37249 | Must I be set down as hopelessly and irreclaimably frivolous just because I have chosen to laugh when possibly another woman might have cried?" |
37249 | Must you carry it?" |
37249 | Not more than that?... |
37249 | Now, then, does that stand the band- wagon upon its wheels again?" |
37249 | Oh, Victor, is it clean money?" |
37249 | Or is it going off for good?" |
37249 | Or shall I do what is best for you?" |
37249 | Shall I go over to the_ Spot- Light_ office and tell Harlan what I know?" |
37249 | Sixty days? |
37249 | Sommtime ve get de railroad,_ n''est- ce pas_, M''sieu''Brouillard? |
37249 | Suppose I should tell you that practically all of your bosses are in with us; what then?" |
37249 | THE TERROR 322 ILLUSTRATIONS"What would I do? |
37249 | Tell me, Mr. Brouillard, have you asked her to marry you?" |
37249 | That would be the reasonable conclusion, would n''t it?" |
37249 | The materials have all been tested, I suppose?" |
37249 | The only question is this: Is the one only and incomparable she worth the effort? |
37249 | The question is: Will they be rediscovered? |
37249 | The''Little Susan''has begun to pan out, has it? |
37249 | Then Miss Amy got word to you? |
37249 | Then he asked a question:"When is this little hell- on- earth going to be finally extinguished, Victor?" |
37249 | Then he put in the word of warning:"I suppose you''ll be dabbling a little in Mirapolis options after you get this note business out of the way? |
37249 | Then the inevitable question:"They''re sayin''on the street that you''re lettin''out half o''your men-- that so?" |
37249 | Then to Brouillard:"Say, young man; you do n''t mean to tell me that your father''s son needs a guardian, do you? |
37249 | Then, with a determined wrenching aside of the subject:"Are you going up on Chigringo this afternoon?" |
37249 | Then, with a purposeful changing of the subject:"Where is Miss Massingale? |
37249 | Then, with business- like directness:"What will you build it of?--concrete?" |
37249 | Then:"What has come over you lately, Brouillard? |
37249 | There were ideals in the beginning; you admitted it, did n''t you? |
37249 | There will be a called meeting of the directors here in this room to- morrow evening at eight o''clock, and----""Who calls it?" |
37249 | Think I do n''t remember how you were always ranting about the dignity of a man''s work and quoting Kipling at me? |
37249 | Think you could manage to get Ford on the wire and encourage him a little more?" |
37249 | To whom?" |
37249 | Want to come along?" |
37249 | Was n''t Massingale personally involved in some way?" |
37249 | Were the field- notes in when you left Washington?" |
37249 | What about a man''s natural limitations?" |
37249 | What about the dam? |
37249 | What are you calling it?" |
37249 | What are your orders from the department?" |
37249 | What are your two evils?" |
37249 | What became of the one hundred thousand dollars you gave old David Massingale?" |
37249 | What did he do with it-- gamble it?" |
37249 | What do we get out of life more than the day''s dole of-- well, of whatever we care most for? |
37249 | What do you mean? |
37249 | What do you say?" |
37249 | What do you say?" |
37249 | What do you think?" |
37249 | What happened when you were twenty- one-- or were you too busy just then chasing the elusive engineering degree to take notice?" |
37249 | What has your pay- roll been?" |
37249 | What have you been doing all these days when I have n''t been able to keep tab on you?" |
37249 | What have you done with old David?" |
37249 | What if I had gone about town contradicting the rumor?" |
37249 | What if the boomers were taking an unauthorized ell for their authorized inch? |
37249 | What is it the Good Book says? |
37249 | What is it?" |
37249 | What is it?" |
37249 | What shall I tell Miss Massingale when she asks about you?" |
37249 | What was the quarrel about, between him and Van Bruce?" |
37249 | What were you doing twenty minutes ago?" |
37249 | What will you do?--build your dam right here and take out your canal through the canyon? |
37249 | What''s the matter with our money? |
37249 | What''s up?" |
37249 | What''s your grief?" |
37249 | What''s your price?" |
37249 | What? |
37249 | When do those notes of yours fall due?" |
37249 | When will you want my expert opinion on your auxiliary dam?" |
37249 | Where did you say I''d find your wire office?" |
37249 | Where is she, and what was the message?" |
37249 | Where is your sense of humor?" |
37249 | Where will you get it? |
37249 | Where''s the boss?" |
37249 | Who has been telling you all these things about me?" |
37249 | Who says so? |
37249 | Why do n''t you care?" |
37249 | Why is Steve proposing to give this thing away? |
37249 | Why is n''t he working the bar himself?" |
37249 | Why should he go out of his way to quarrel with it on high moral grounds? |
37249 | Will you come down and see us off?" |
37249 | Will you saw it off with me that way?--until you''ve made the turn on the ore sales?" |
37249 | Wo n''t you ask me to sit down?" |
37249 | Would he go, if he might have the post of honor behind the pilot- wheel of the new sixty- horse, seven- passenger flyer? |
37249 | Would it go up, or down, with a sudden resumption of work on the dam?" |
37249 | Would n''t that be delightful?" |
37249 | Would n''t that be rather awkward?" |
37249 | Would n''t that set your teeth on edge?" |
37249 | Would the department place the men and the means instantly at his disposal? |
37249 | Would the miracle be wrought? |
37249 | Would you do it?" |
37249 | Would you give a hundred thousand dollars for the privilege of being able to say to her:''Come, dear, let''s go and get married''?" |
37249 | Would you mind telling me just why?" |
37249 | You ai n''t allowin''to use it on her, Victor?" |
37249 | You believe that, Amy? |
37249 | You do n''t need any kindergartner of a construction man to help you solve a little problem like that, do you?" |
37249 | You know that long, narrow sand- bar in the river just below the mouth of the upper canyon?" |
37249 | You say the men clear out when they are discharged-- isn''t that about what you''d do if you were out of a job?" |
37249 | You want something-- is it that damned Massingale business again? |
37249 | You want to keep your job, do n''t you?" |
37249 | You wo n''t forget that, will you?" |
37249 | You wo n''t turn us down on this, Brouillard?" |
37249 | You would say that''Bimi''would be just about the last thing in the world to put anybody to sleep, would n''t you? |
37249 | You''d put us out of business? |
37249 | You''ve eaten here before; what do you pay Bongras for a reasonably good dinner?" |
37249 | You''ve got some sort of an engineers''mess, I take it?" |
37249 | You_ are_ connected with it, are n''t you?" |
37249 | _ Savez?_"The chauffeur was adjusting something under the upturned bonnet of the touring- car and thus hiding his grin. |
37249 | am I really such a transparent egoist as all that?" |
37249 | do n''t you see? |
37249 | do you know that it is after ten o''clock?" |
37249 | in Chicago?" |
37249 | she panted,"is love a thing to be cheapened like that-- to be sinned for?" |
37249 | that touched you, did n''t it?" |
37249 | what in Sam Hill do you take us for?" |
37249 | would n''t that give you a fit of the creepies?--this far from civilization and a dynamo?" |
36170 | A half- share partnership? |
36170 | A lot to talk about? |
36170 | A smart gal, too, eh? |
36170 | A-- a branch? |
36170 | Accident? |
36170 | Ai n''t Mallinsbee around? |
36170 | Am I? |
36170 | Amusin'', ai n''t it? |
36170 | And how long''s this to go on for? |
36170 | And if he beats your game? |
36170 | And the five- cent- cigar man? |
36170 | And the innocent''s ruin? |
36170 | And the question? |
36170 | And the result? |
36170 | And then? |
36170 | And this-- is part of the Union Grayling system? |
36170 | And what about that other place-- that log and adobe shack you told me of? |
36170 | And what did you use it for? |
36170 | And you''ll play the game? |
36170 | And you''ve come to Snake''s Fall to-- to make it? |
36170 | And your cattle station? |
36170 | Anti- Tobacco? |
36170 | Anyway what could he do? |
36170 | Are they mine? |
36170 | Are they the----? |
36170 | Are we? |
36170 | Big? 36170 Bluff? |
36170 | Buffalo Point? |
36170 | Business? |
36170 | But how long is-- it to last? 36170 But how? |
36170 | But what about your souls? |
36170 | But what does our poor Gordon know of women? |
36170 | But what''s Gordon done? |
36170 | But when your father knows what you''ve done? 36170 But why, if you''ll forgive me, around-- Snake''s Fall?" |
36170 | But-- but do n''t you understand? |
36170 | But-- that piece about yourself? |
36170 | Ca n''t we look around the house while the kettle boils? |
36170 | Can I believe my ears? 36170 Can you let me have a room?" |
36170 | Can you tell it me now? |
36170 | Caribou? |
36170 | Charity? |
36170 | Chief grafter, eh? 36170 Criminals?" |
36170 | Deserved? 36170 Did he tell you anything?" |
36170 | Did n''t I say he was just a scallywag? 36170 Did you ever know anybody that was really healthy who started in to worry how they were living? |
36170 | Do I? |
36170 | Do n''t you see, dear? 36170 Do we need that yellow reptile present?" |
36170 | Do we wash things or do we just pack''em up? |
36170 | Do you believe in miracles? |
36170 | Do you need that sent off, sir? |
36170 | Do you need to ask me that? |
36170 | Do you need to worry that way, Mr. Mallinsbee? 36170 Do you think you could get me a-- five- cent cigar, Harding?" |
36170 | Do? 36170 Do? |
36170 | Dovecote? |
36170 | Eh? |
36170 | Europe, sir? |
36170 | Fixed anything? |
36170 | Fool? 36170 Get through your business at-- the office?" |
36170 | Go? 36170 Got back, Silas?" |
36170 | Graft? 36170 Graft?" |
36170 | Harding, have you ever smoked a-- five- cent cigar? |
36170 | Has Slosson abated his terms? |
36170 | Has he been here to- day? |
36170 | Have I? |
36170 | Have you any reason to show why sentence should not be passed upon you? 36170 He closed the deal?" |
36170 | He''ll never consent to-- to----"Our marriage? 36170 He''s evidently not married, so-- what do you intend to do about it while Mr. Carbhoy is on the coast?" |
36170 | His father? |
36170 | How do you know my first name? |
36170 | How do you say, gentlemen? 36170 How far out are the coalfields?" |
36170 | How old is your-- Gracie? |
36170 | How''s Miss Hazel this morning? |
36170 | How''s our junior partner? |
36170 | How? 36170 I did?" |
36170 | I do n''t guess it''s any real sign of health, mentally or physically, when folks have to start''anti''societies, eh? |
36170 | I guess Mallinsbee knows what this means-- for him? |
36170 | I s''pose girls are n''t of much account with you? 36170 I s''pose the boom will come big when it does start?" |
36170 | I shall be beaten? |
36170 | I suppose one hundred thousand dollars would be nothing to make if-- things go right? |
36170 | I suppose there''s quite a town there now? |
36170 | I trust, sir, I''ve given satisfaction? |
36170 | I wonder what trouble it is? |
36170 | I''m not clever, but-- I did think of it, did n''t I? 36170 If I asked you?" |
36170 | Immorality? 36170 In the name of all that''s crazy what''s-- what''s the meaning of it? |
36170 | In what? |
36170 | Is it graft? |
36170 | Is it sunstroke, or-- or----? |
36170 | Is it that way? |
36170 | Is it what we guessed? |
36170 | Is it''yes''? |
36170 | Is it? |
36170 | Is n''t he just splendid? |
36170 | Is n''t it a fairy- book picture? 36170 Is n''t that just a man? |
36170 | Is the court to be questioned upon its powers? |
36170 | It is n''t always so with men-- where the making of money is concerned, is it? |
36170 | It makes a difference, does n''t it? 36170 It''s dead safe Steve has n''t sent a copy to Slosson?" |
36170 | It''s-- all yours? |
36170 | James Carbhoy''s your-- father? |
36170 | Kick? |
36170 | Kickin''? 36170 Lose? |
36170 | Mallinsbee? |
36170 | Mallinsbee? |
36170 | Maybe you do n''t reckon I''ve got sense? |
36170 | Meracles? |
36170 | More to you than all-- this? |
36170 | Movements? 36170 Must he remain?" |
36170 | Must it? 36170 Never been saddled?" |
36170 | No? 36170 No?" |
36170 | Nor has your father----"No right? 36170 Not?" |
36170 | Nothing doing? |
36170 | Now how on earth do I know where I was going? 36170 Now you have n''t got it?" |
36170 | Office? |
36170 | Oh-- you agree? |
36170 | Owe? |
36170 | Partly? |
36170 | Play? |
36170 | Pretty? 36170 Put that way it-- sounds rotten, Dad, does n''t it?" |
36170 | Really? 36170 Ride home? |
36170 | Right? 36170 Satisfaction?" |
36170 | Say, Dad, was there ever such a father as I''ve got? |
36170 | Say, Dad, what in the name of all creation has brought you here? |
36170 | Say, I have n''t said anything wrong, have I? |
36170 | Say, did you ever feel a perfect, idiotic fool? 36170 Say, do n''t it beat all, Miss Hazel, stealin''your own father? |
36170 | Say, is n''t it wonderful? 36170 Say, is n''t that real bright?" |
36170 | Say, is n''t there a village? |
36170 | Say, is n''t this a great place? |
36170 | Say, we''re just two real good friends, Mr. Van Henslaer, are n''t we? 36170 Say, will smoke worry you any, young lady?" |
36170 | Say, you made a talk about an''innocent''s''life gettin''all mussed up? |
36170 | Say,he demanded at last,"why does the man want options? |
36170 | Say,he observed, addressing the ruffian beside him, who was busily chewing and spitting,"you do n''t mind if I smoke, do you?" |
36170 | Say? 36170 Secretary?" |
36170 | See the crookedness of that kid? 36170 Shall I get on him first?" |
36170 | Shall we eat first or----? |
36170 | She was waiting for that skunk? 36170 Sign here, eh?" |
36170 | Sixty miles back? |
36170 | Slosson been around? |
36170 | Slosson? 36170 Slosson?" |
36170 | Smart gal? |
36170 | Sorry? |
36170 | Souls? |
36170 | South, sir? |
36170 | Startin''fer the Yukon in-- July? 36170 Still here?" |
36170 | Sunset off duty? |
36170 | Sure? 36170 That all?" |
36170 | That''s Mallinsbee''s-- word? |
36170 | The fainting-- really? |
36170 | The old dad? 36170 The proprietor of the-- hotel?" |
36170 | Then what are we to do? |
36170 | Then where''s the argument? |
36170 | Then who is it, sir? |
36170 | Then you saw him stop me on Main Street yesterday? |
36170 | Then-- to- night? |
36170 | Then? 36170 There''s that darned fire- escape out back, right down from his room, an''what man has ever locked his barn in these parts? |
36170 | There, what do you think of it? |
36170 | They treating you-- right? |
36170 | Think of it? 36170 Tired? |
36170 | Trouble? 36170 Trouble?" |
36170 | Two? 36170 Van Henslaer?" |
36170 | Wal, what''s his proposition? |
36170 | Well-- ain''t we? |
36170 | Well? |
36170 | Well? |
36170 | Well? |
36170 | Well? |
36170 | Well? |
36170 | Well? |
36170 | Well? |
36170 | Well? |
36170 | Well? |
36170 | What State are we in? |
36170 | What are you goin''to do? |
36170 | What comes next? |
36170 | What d''you mean? |
36170 | What did I tell you, Mr. Van Henslaer? |
36170 | What do you mean? |
36170 | What does them big coal seams tell you? 36170 What happened-- out there?" |
36170 | What in thunder is he chasin''caribou for when there''s things to be settled once and for all that wo n''t keep? 36170 What in thunder? |
36170 | What is it? |
36170 | What is it? |
36170 | What makes you think that way? |
36170 | What nursing home will you send Gordon to when he gets back? |
36170 | What place is this? |
36170 | What were you coming to-- see me for? |
36170 | What would it be worth to you to be able to read his code? |
36170 | What''s Gordon done? |
36170 | What''s amiss with Snake''s Fall? |
36170 | What''s happening? |
36170 | What''s the President of the Union Grayling and Ukataw Railroad got to do with it? |
36170 | What''s the matter, momma? |
36170 | What''s the matter? |
36170 | What''s-- the real champagne? |
36170 | What-- what are you going to do-- then? |
36170 | Whatever will he say when he knows? |
36170 | Wher''is the bloomin''depot to be? 36170 Where are we?" |
36170 | Where is that''sharp''? 36170 Where is the boy?" |
36170 | Which is the best way? |
36170 | White man? |
36170 | Who is she? |
36170 | Who says that? |
36170 | Who thinks you a-- fool? |
36170 | Who was that rotten- looking''sharp''you were yarning to when I came in? |
36170 | Who-- who do you think has done this? |
36170 | Why did you say there was? |
36170 | Why not? 36170 Why not? |
36170 | Why not? |
36170 | Why should n''t I do this? 36170 Why six months?" |
36170 | Why? |
36170 | Will Slosson be around soon? |
36170 | With a name like''Van Henslaer''--you ai n''t Irish? |
36170 | Worried? |
36170 | Worse? |
36170 | Would it? |
36170 | You ai n''t for Snake''s Fall? |
36170 | You ai n''t going to send that? |
36170 | You can read it? |
36170 | You had an office? |
36170 | You have absolute power to deal in Mallinsbee''s interest? |
36170 | You just need to copy the message out? 36170 You mean-- with your father a prisoner?" |
36170 | You really want me to do-- all this? |
36170 | You said you guessed how the scrap would end? |
36170 | You said-- a half- share? |
36170 | You say Mr. Gordon''s married? |
36170 | You see, we have become sort of partners in most everything, have n''t we? 36170 You were educated in Boston?" |
36170 | You will-- need a man when you come back, sir? |
36170 | You will? |
36170 | You wo n''t need to disfigure my record? |
36170 | You''re going to-- marry her? |
36170 | You''re lookin''kind of-- happy? |
36170 | You''re thinkin''something? |
36170 | You''re thinking of the Buffalo Point scheme? |
36170 | You''re wonderin''''bout that patch? |
36170 | You''re-- going to pay it? |
36170 | You''ve sold? |
36170 | You''ve told your mother, Gordon? |
36170 | You''ve-- made-- good? |
36170 | You, Hazel? |
36170 | You-- don''t think me-- a-- fool? |
36170 | You-- mean our folks have located our whereabouts and-- are going to rescue us? |
36170 | You-- would keep me here a prisoner-- indefinitely? |
36170 | You? 36170 Your father-- the-- millionaire-- James Carbhoy?" |
36170 | A lady? |
36170 | A little of the''48 brandy, sir?" |
36170 | After all, what did it matter? |
36170 | After all, why should she attempt to bluff him? |
36170 | An oyster cocktail? |
36170 | An''you''ll guarantee that scrap up?" |
36170 | And when it came what-- what then? |
36170 | And who were the attacking party? |
36170 | And would he use it? |
36170 | And yet---- Had he intended this stake as his last? |
36170 | And you,"he gazed inquiringly into the man''s strong face,"you began it from-- the beginning?" |
36170 | And your father is----?" |
36170 | And, anyway, what was the meaning of the rise in prices at that end? |
36170 | Any of youse?" |
36170 | Anything else, sir?" |
36170 | Anyway, you made it plain I''m to look after the-- prisoner?" |
36170 | Are n''t we, Daddy, dear?" |
36170 | Are they goin''to pay? |
36170 | Are we for bed?" |
36170 | Are you needing anything, or-- will you get busy?" |
36170 | Are you scared any? |
36170 | Besides, now you''ve completed your-- graft, what about your poor long- suffering prisoners? |
36170 | Bluff? |
36170 | But I ca n''t mail direct, or she''ll know where I am, see? |
36170 | But how do we stand up there? |
36170 | But how? |
36170 | But how? |
36170 | But most of all-- why? |
36170 | But what about saddle horses for a rapid bolt? |
36170 | But what are you doing around-- now?" |
36170 | But you did n''t ask me to ride all these miles in to-- to say just all these nice things to me, Gordon? |
36170 | But----""But-- what?" |
36170 | Can I help any?" |
36170 | Can you doubt? |
36170 | Can you hire me a rig?" |
36170 | Can you make a pile?" |
36170 | Can you show me a detail of human nature which is truly honest? |
36170 | Caribou? |
36170 | Compensations? |
36170 | Could it be that----? |
36170 | D''you know, if you were to ask me just to pass the salt at supper it would sound to me like the taste of ice- cream?" |
36170 | Did his father intend to-- kick him out? |
36170 | Did the governor leave me one? |
36170 | Did you ever know a kid take his physic without the promise of candy, or the certainty it would come his way? |
36170 | Did you ever see a kid around his parents? |
36170 | Do you get me? |
36170 | Do you get me? |
36170 | Do you get the lesson of it? |
36170 | Do you know what would happen? |
36170 | Do you know, in this thing I''m dead honest when I''m dealing with honest folk, and I''m a''sharp''when I''m dealing with''sharps''? |
36170 | Do you need me to tell_ you_ of it? |
36170 | Do you think we''ll get back to our folks? |
36170 | Do? |
36170 | Does he think I''m going to wait around while he gets chasin''--caribou?" |
36170 | Does it remain-- anyway? |
36170 | Does that tell you anything? |
36170 | Dreams? |
36170 | Eh? |
36170 | Ever played''draw''with a one- eyed man? |
36170 | Five thousand dollars, is n''t it? |
36170 | Fool? |
36170 | For-- as long as we live?" |
36170 | Fortune?" |
36170 | Get me, Peter? |
36170 | Get me? |
36170 | Get me? |
36170 | Get me? |
36170 | Get that? |
36170 | Had Harker sent up and was this a sheriff''s posse? |
36170 | Had he a revolver? |
36170 | Had he been bought over? |
36170 | Had he been dealt with, too? |
36170 | Had he been handled by these folk, or had he doubled? |
36170 | Had he not fought for her as those warriors of old would have done? |
36170 | Hazel-- what? |
36170 | He never said a word?" |
36170 | He owns all the land along the railroad, does n''t he?" |
36170 | He''s got everything ready?" |
36170 | He''s''Gordon,''eh?" |
36170 | Here, or yonder to the west at Buffalo Point? |
36170 | Hev a smoke?" |
36170 | Hev''you got two eyes to your head which do n''t convey no meaning to your brain? |
36170 | How I stand? |
36170 | How are you going to save us all from the consequences of your evil ways? |
36170 | How are you? |
36170 | How could he measure his wits against the wits of such land speculators as he saw about him? |
36170 | How could it be otherwise? |
36170 | How could there be? |
36170 | How did he get there? |
36170 | How did you gain control of the Union Grayling and Ukataw Railroad? |
36170 | How do you stand with the folks up there?" |
36170 | How does he do it? |
36170 | How far is that father justified in doping his son''s liquor, so he wo n''t lie awake at nights planning to roll him for his wad next morning? |
36170 | How had he gone? |
36170 | How has it been made? |
36170 | How in the world have you got into the hands of these ruffians?" |
36170 | How on earth could I expect you to ride in a stranger''s buggy, with said stranger on the business end of the lines? |
36170 | How on earth did he get there? |
36170 | How on earth was he to make one hundred thousand dollars in six months? |
36170 | How was he to turn this thing to account? |
36170 | How''ud you fancy stealin''Mr. Mallinsbee? |
36170 | How- do?" |
36170 | How? |
36170 | How? |
36170 | How?" |
36170 | How?" |
36170 | How?" |
36170 | I do n''t just see----""How? |
36170 | I guess I''m the luckiest feller alive winning her for a wife, eh?" |
36170 | I s''pose codes can be read, though? |
36170 | I s''pose you fancy it''s a sure thing?" |
36170 | I wonder what Slosson''s thinking?" |
36170 | If Slosson insulted her----? |
36170 | If you ca n''t agree?" |
36170 | Immoral? |
36170 | Immoral? |
36170 | Insults? |
36170 | Is it a bet?" |
36170 | Is it a bet?" |
36170 | Is there much more of it?" |
36170 | Is this so?" |
36170 | Jump right in, and I''ll drive you-- where is it?" |
36170 | Makes you laugh, does n''t it? |
36170 | May I read them? |
36170 | Maybe you''re not used to the prairie?" |
36170 | Must it end then, Hazel?" |
36170 | No? |
36170 | No? |
36170 | No? |
36170 | Now if you tell me-- what''s the matter?" |
36170 | Now? |
36170 | Office? |
36170 | One of those''multiflavums''of yours you keep for drummers?" |
36170 | Or was it a broad river of grass? |
36170 | Peter wise?" |
36170 | Quite a piece of money, eh? |
36170 | Sacrifice?" |
36170 | Say, I s''pose you figure this is a great place to make money? |
36170 | Say, I wonder how much sense they reckon they''ve seen in me?" |
36170 | Say, ai n''t the gal you fancy the biggest graft of all? |
36170 | Say, ca n''t it be partners-- for life?" |
36170 | Say, can you beat it? |
36170 | Say, do n''t you sort of feel like a criminal? |
36170 | Say, do you know what it means to a kid when he''s dared to do some fool trick that may cost his life? |
36170 | Say, do you think that little girl of yours and her father have gone to bed yet?" |
36170 | Say, ever heard the name of Carbhoy? |
36170 | Say, have you figured out how we stand? |
36170 | Say, how can we be sure till we''ve fixed things the way we want''em? |
36170 | Say, how did you come to be driving me?" |
36170 | Say, is he smart, or is he just a-- crook?" |
36170 | Say, was he here this morning? |
36170 | Say, what''s going to happen next?" |
36170 | Say, why were you riding in to the ranch-- at dead of night?" |
36170 | Say, you ai n''t got paralysis of the arm yet? |
36170 | Say, you do n''t figure to sink dollars that way yourself? |
36170 | Say, you ever tried to hold a slimy eel?" |
36170 | Say, you''re sure-- sure of things?" |
36170 | Say, you''ve shown your ability to spend that amount; can you show your ability to make it?" |
36170 | Say----""What?" |
36170 | Say----""You mean I''ll get hung up for-- ten months?" |
36170 | See? |
36170 | See? |
36170 | See? |
36170 | See? |
36170 | See? |
36170 | See?" |
36170 | See?" |
36170 | Sid Blake?" |
36170 | So it''s''Gordon,''eh? |
36170 | Sort o''meracle, you''d say? |
36170 | Spoil a dinner like that with--''48 brandy? |
36170 | Squab on toast, or a little pheasant? |
36170 | Still, why not? |
36170 | Sure? |
36170 | Surely his own exertions as a business man was a broken reed to---- What about failure? |
36170 | That all your baggage?" |
36170 | That all?" |
36170 | That clear? |
36170 | That do n''t make him out a fool, does it?" |
36170 | That you, Charlie? |
36170 | That you, Harker? |
36170 | That''s about his opinion of me, eh?" |
36170 | The first is, is it a fact that the President of the Union Grayling and Ukataw Railroad is your guest at the present moment? |
36170 | The game''s played out, and-- we quit?" |
36170 | The other was how could they hope to deal with the Union Grayling without my authority? |
36170 | Then he went on rapidly--"What baggage do you suggest for a six months''trip?" |
36170 | Then he went on, with a suggestion of doubt in his tone,"You deal with his business-- confidential?" |
36170 | Then she added playfully:"What''s ruffled the atmosphere of our-- dovecote?" |
36170 | Then what was the purpose to be served? |
36170 | Then where are you? |
36170 | Then with an unusual diffidence,"Coffee, sir? |
36170 | Then, with a dramatic touch,"Say, Mr. Carbhoy, do you guess we''ll ever-- get out of this? |
36170 | Then--"Say, what''s your stake?" |
36170 | They''re hitting it up good, eh?" |
36170 | True? |
36170 | True?" |
36170 | Was Slosson at its head? |
36170 | Was he given a free hand? |
36170 | Was not this sufficient to make it a day of days? |
36170 | Was there any thought in the world so inspiring as that which had the support of the most wonderful creature he had ever met for its inspiration? |
36170 | Was there ever a more perfect imbecile? |
36170 | Was there ever anything more immoral than modern finance? |
36170 | Was there ever such a fool trick? |
36170 | Was this so? |
36170 | Well, if his corporation turns him down, how do we stand? |
36170 | Well?" |
36170 | What about sweets, sir, and what wine will you take?" |
36170 | What could he do? |
36170 | What could they achieve with regard to the railroad without his authority? |
36170 | What did he know about land? |
36170 | What did he know? |
36170 | What do you mean to do?" |
36170 | What does it matter to me what I may have to put up with if I can help him out? |
36170 | What else, unless it''s coal, would they talk in Snake''s Fall? |
36170 | What else? |
36170 | What had become of Slosson? |
36170 | What is the danger I''m running?" |
36170 | What more could a man desire? |
36170 | What power of mischief had driven him to charge his highly respectable father with graft? |
36170 | What then?" |
36170 | What was his name--"Van Henslaer"? |
36170 | What was the meaning of it? |
36170 | What was the use? |
36170 | What was this wild scheme he had suddenly conceived, almost the first moment he was left in sole control? |
36170 | What was to follow-- failure? |
36170 | What would Gordon''s father do? |
36170 | What would he have? |
36170 | What would we have worth living for? |
36170 | What would you give him?" |
36170 | What''s that? |
36170 | What''s the danger? |
36170 | What''s the next play, Miss?" |
36170 | What''s the use in settin''around here talking murder when the plums are lyin''around? |
36170 | What''s the use? |
36170 | What''s this? |
36170 | What''s----""The coalpits? |
36170 | What, these speculators asked themselves, and each other, did the incident portend, what had the future in store? |
36170 | What?" |
36170 | When would that"kick"come, and where would it be delivered? |
36170 | Where does obligation lie? |
36170 | Where was he? |
36170 | Where''s Mallinsbee?" |
36170 | Where''s your enthusiasm? |
36170 | Where''s your joy of life? |
36170 | Where''s your romance, and-- and spirit of hope?" |
36170 | Where?" |
36170 | Which is it? |
36170 | Who could he be? |
36170 | Who said''lose''?" |
36170 | Who was he? |
36170 | Who was he?" |
36170 | Who''s your friend?" |
36170 | Why not? |
36170 | Why should he not cut across to the westward and intercept her on the way from the ranch? |
36170 | Why should n''t a daughter be allowed to make her own mess of things, and later on, when she collects sense, clean it up again the best she knows? |
36170 | Why, what was there to stop him, sir? |
36170 | Will he fall for Slosson''s game to get us where he wants us? |
36170 | Will he stand for his crazy buying? |
36170 | Will you come in on the wildest, most crazy scheme you ever heard of? |
36170 | Will you come in?" |
36170 | Will you need your polo kit, sir, and your----?" |
36170 | Will you-- shall it be-- partners-- always?" |
36170 | With what object? |
36170 | Working late, eh? |
36170 | Would it be the reply he desired, or an uncompromising negative? |
36170 | Would n''t you help him if you had such a dear, quaint old daddy as I have? |
36170 | Would n''t you rather have him?" |
36170 | Yes-- how? |
36170 | You carry my grips? |
36170 | You get that? |
36170 | You see, Gordon''s not very bright-- is he?" |
36170 | You see, you belong to me, do n''t you?" |
36170 | You wo n''t do so bad yourself?" |
36170 | You''ve only one of the boys here? |
36170 | You?" |
36170 | You?" |
36170 | he cried furiously;"and he''s still alive?" |
18789 | A holiday from what-- from whom? |
18789 | A legal separation? |
18789 | A ring? |
18789 | A week- end tripper, or somebody with a flourish at each end of his name? |
18789 | Accept what? |
18789 | Against a blind girl? |
18789 | Am I not to hear it? |
18789 | Am I the devil tempting you to run crooked? |
18789 | An astonishing likeness? |
18789 | And if ever your present freedom were suddenly denied to you by Fate? |
18789 | And just for that you came back? 18789 And monsieur also?" |
18789 | And then? |
18789 | And then? |
18789 | And this stick? |
18789 | And what is this help you want from me? |
18789 | And what were you doing at Arles? |
18789 | And when our fairy garments turn back to rags? |
18789 | And you propose that I should give them up for nothing? |
18789 | And you won? |
18789 | And you''ll tell no one else? |
18789 | Any address above Cherbourg? |
18789 | Anything else to repent of? |
18789 | Anything else? |
18789 | Are n''t we talking at cross- purposes, Mrs Matheson? 18789 Are n''t you a scientist, Mr Rivière?" |
18789 | Are you going away from Paris? |
18789 | Are you going to marry Mrs Matheson, Dad? |
18789 | Are you ready?... 18789 Are you working this morning?" |
18789 | As a consequence of your advertisement in the newspaper? |
18789 | At Arles, Nîmes, or here? |
18789 | At least you will let me stay by you until you leave Hegelmann''s charge? 18789 Blind and undergoing an operation this very morning? |
18789 | Bluff? |
18789 | But do you know what it means in plain language? |
18789 | But he writes to you? |
18789 | But is Clifford ready to? 18789 But my divorce?" |
18789 | But perhaps mademoiselle will be coming to dine this evening? |
18789 | But surely you will let us help you with the expenses of the first few months? |
18789 | But when I put this before St Aubyn and Carleton- Wingate, they''ll be expecting me to-- I mean to say, is n''t it deuced irregular, you know? |
18789 | But why did you look it up? |
18789 | Ca n''t I dress the wound for you? |
18789 | Ca n''t it wait? |
18789 | Ca n''t you find him? |
18789 | Can I be captain of the yacht? |
18789 | Can you tell me where he went to? |
18789 | Clifford, ca n''t you persuade Miss Verney? |
18789 | Clifford? |
18789 | Climb to where? |
18789 | Could n''t you come on afterwards? 18789 D''you doubt my word?" |
18789 | Depends on what? |
18789 | Did he buy for investment or merely for speculation? |
18789 | Did he leave an address? |
18789 | Did it effect your purpose? 18789 Did marriage change you much?" |
18789 | Did n''t you guess before? |
18789 | Did this belong to your man? |
18789 | Did you examine footprints? |
18789 | Did you find the stick broken? |
18789 | Did you note the number of the cab? |
18789 | Did you satisfy yourself? |
18789 | Do n''t you think so, Clifford? |
18789 | Do you deny it? |
18789 | Do you know that Miss Verney is blind? |
18789 | Do you know that your friends are getting anxious about you? |
18789 | Do you like lilies? 18789 Do you play roulette?" |
18789 | Do you realise that she is eating her heart out in loneliness? |
18789 | Do you remember much of your mother? |
18789 | Do you suffer much? |
18789 | Do you wish me to explain who wrote it, or will you do it yourself? |
18789 | Does anyone else know? |
18789 | Does n''t he approve it? |
18789 | Does n''t your heart tell you? |
18789 | Drugs? 18789 Engaged, or likely to be?" |
18789 | Everything going smooth? |
18789 | Exclusive? |
18789 | Exclusive? |
18789 | Experiment to finish? |
18789 | First, what''s the idea? |
18789 | For his not writing? |
18789 | From whom? |
18789 | Good news? 18789 Had lunch yet?" |
18789 | Has he left no message for me? |
18789 | Have I what? |
18789 | Have you everything you want for the journey? |
18789 | Have you finished your experiments with your brother? |
18789 | Have you heard when Clifford will be back? |
18789 | Have you heard yet from your husband? |
18789 | Have you it with you? |
18789 | Have you seen your brother lately? 18789 Have you such a cable with you?" |
18789 | Have you written evidence of that? |
18789 | Heard from Clifford lately? |
18789 | How did you first guess that white lilac is my favourite flower? |
18789 | How do you like Canada? 18789 How far are you going to climb?" |
18789 | How freedom? |
18789 | How long d''you give her? |
18789 | How long will you be away? |
18789 | How much shall I offer him? |
18789 | How old is she? |
18789 | How would you like to have a new mother? |
18789 | How? |
18789 | How? |
18789 | How? |
18789 | How? |
18789 | Hudson Bay scheme? |
18789 | I am hoping to get promotion in the office, and then----"Do you understand how to get promotion? |
18789 | I do n''t know-- what does it matter? |
18789 | I hope you will excuse my running away so brusquely? 18789 I mean, what did he tell you to do?" |
18789 | I must know this: did she suggest the idea of the allowance or did you? |
18789 | I remember being very much impressed by it at the time.... Yours must be particularly interesting work? |
18789 | I suppose I could get his address through Miss Verney? |
18789 | I suppose Sir Francis knows all about everything? |
18789 | I suppose he explained matters to you? |
18789 | I suppose that you know that the other two boats were picked up early this morning? |
18789 | I suppose you found out afterwards that you''d made a mistake, and then blamed it on to me? |
18789 | I wonder if men ever have that feeling as strongly as we women do? |
18789 | I''m right in calling you_ Miss_ Verney? |
18789 | Imitaciong oyster? |
18789 | In what? |
18789 | In which sphere? |
18789 | Is Mr Larssen on the yacht? |
18789 | Is it not right? |
18789 | Is n''t May 3rd the day that ends your agreement? |
18789 | Is n''t that a very unusual arrangement? |
18789 | Is n''t that for you to decide, Clifford dear? |
18789 | Is she so very attractive to you? |
18789 | Is she so very beautiful, this enchantress of yours? |
18789 | Is she----Is she the lady you meant when you said on board ship you were going to marry someone? |
18789 | Is that very important? |
18789 | Is there room for all of us? |
18789 | It was not pity for me? 18789 It would not be possible for him to travel to here?" |
18789 | Just one more question: are you a good sailor? |
18789 | May I continue the lesson? |
18789 | May I know what the fight was about? |
18789 | May I see the letter? |
18789 | Miss Verney told you that? |
18789 | Miss Verney,he said,"I wonder if you would do me a very big favour without asking for my reasons in detail? |
18789 | Mrs Matheson''s compliments, and will you come aboard? |
18789 | Mrs Matheson-- do you like her? |
18789 | Must I speak more definitely? |
18789 | My help? |
18789 | No need for thanks-- wait till I''ve worked the_ deus ex machinâ_ stunt.... What do you think of my boy? |
18789 | Not enough in it for you? |
18789 | Nothing else worth reporting, I think.... Do you recognize this coat and stick as belonging to Mr Matheson, sir? |
18789 | Now see here,pursued the shipowner, fixing his eyes deep into the young man''s,"why did you lie to me just now?" |
18789 | Or a message? |
18789 | Or say where he was going? |
18789 | Promised? |
18789 | Quickly? |
18789 | Reckon you will to- day.... Say, could n''t you look in Mr Matheson''s desk to find the address of this Mr Rivière? |
18789 | Repent of what? |
18789 | Right-- I''ll remember.... By the way, about the Hudson Bay company, did I tell you that the underwriting negotiations are going through fine? 18789 Rivière?" |
18789 | Scientific work, is n''t it? |
18789 | Shall I lure the children away? |
18789 | Shall I see you at breakfast? |
18789 | Shall I send him on to Roehampton after he''s seen me? |
18789 | Shall we say 10.30? |
18789 | So little? 18789 Suppose we drop your father at the Cabaret while we go on to see my offices?" |
18789 | Suppose you enclose this when you''re writing to Matheson? 18789 Sure they were his?" |
18789 | Sure? |
18789 | Surely you knew that I''d provide for you? |
18789 | Surely you remember? |
18789 | Sylvester, you recognize this man? |
18789 | Take them to the police? |
18789 | Taking her back any presents? |
18789 | That means the Verney girl, does it? |
18789 | That means, I take it, that you are ready to accept from my husband? |
18789 | That you''d let the divorce suit go undefended? |
18789 | That''s your last word? |
18789 | The left? |
18789 | The things she said-- you do n''t believe they''re true? |
18789 | The workman''s boots? |
18789 | Then it''s freed you? |
18789 | Then she made some appeal to you? |
18789 | Then what are the facts? |
18789 | Then what are you going to do when you leave the home? |
18789 | Then what is it you do want? |
18789 | Then what the hell''s the reason for this sudden attack of scruples? |
18789 | Then what''s made you switch? |
18789 | Then why did you tell me yesterday that you had cut definitely loose from him? 18789 Then why do n''t you?" |
18789 | Then will you bring St Aubyn and Carleton- Wingate here, and get their consent? 18789 Then you''ve been talking matters over with Mrs Matheson?" |
18789 | Then you''ve had good news from outside? 18789 They sank?" |
18789 | Till May 3rd.... And then? |
18789 | To say if----? |
18789 | To say----? |
18789 | To whom? |
18789 | To- night? |
18789 | To----? |
18789 | Travelling on business? |
18789 | Unreservedly.... By the way, do you know where my brother is at the moment? |
18789 | Want to ask him any questions? 18789 Was n''t she the image of a disappointed vulture? |
18789 | Was n''t this worked into a scene for''Ames Nues,''at the Chatelet? |
18789 | Was that the only reason that made you return? |
18789 | Was that your idea? |
18789 | Was your man hefty with the shillelagh? |
18789 | We? |
18789 | Well, Dean, how are you feeling now? 18789 Well, my next order is this: take a fortnight''s holiday and get strong again.... Do you fish?" |
18789 | Well, sir, what can I do for you? |
18789 | Well, what do you say? 18789 Well, what''s the particular''but''?" |
18789 | Well? |
18789 | Well? |
18789 | Well? |
18789 | Well? |
18789 | Well? |
18789 | Were we destined to meet, do you think? |
18789 | What are you going to do next? |
18789 | What are you going to do when the month is up? |
18789 | What can I have the pleasure of doing for you, sir? |
18789 | What can_ I_ do? |
18789 | What conditions? |
18789 | What d''you mean? |
18789 | What did he tell you? |
18789 | What did he tell you? |
18789 | What do they say? |
18789 | What do they say? |
18789 | What do you want from me? |
18789 | What do you want me to do? |
18789 | What do you want on it? |
18789 | What does a business man mean exactly? |
18789 | What does it matter to me-- now? |
18789 | What else was left for me? |
18789 | What have we hit? |
18789 | What house would take it on at that? |
18789 | What inferences? |
18789 | What is it you want from me? |
18789 | What is it? |
18789 | What is it? |
18789 | What is it? |
18789 | What made you travel to there? |
18789 | What message did you wish to give to my father? |
18789 | What more can I do than I have done? |
18789 | What more can I do than I have done? |
18789 | What new work? |
18789 | What next? |
18789 | What ought I to want? |
18789 | What people? |
18789 | What reason shall I give him, sir? |
18789 | What then? |
18789 | What work? |
18789 | What would you do? |
18789 | What''s he like? |
18789 | What''s that? |
18789 | What''s that? |
18789 | What''s that? |
18789 | What''s the entertainment for to- night? |
18789 | What''s the matter? |
18789 | What''s the plan? |
18789 | What''s the reason? 18789 What''s the scientific experiment?" |
18789 | What''s this? |
18789 | What''s wrong with it? |
18789 | What''s your new post? |
18789 | What''s your suggestion now? |
18789 | What? |
18789 | What? |
18789 | What_ is_ the plan? |
18789 | Whatever they may be, do you want them put before your wife? |
18789 | When did he say he will be back? |
18789 | When will mademoiselle be able to make the journey? |
18789 | When will they be finished? |
18789 | When? |
18789 | When? |
18789 | When? |
18789 | Where are the other boats? |
18789 | Where are you going for your rest- cure? |
18789 | Where has he gone? |
18789 | Where has he gone? |
18789 | Where is Larssen? |
18789 | Where is she in Wiesbaden? |
18789 | Where''s the point about shares for me? |
18789 | Where? |
18789 | Which company? |
18789 | Which do you like best: the country, or a big city, or the sea? |
18789 | Which friends? |
18789 | Which point? |
18789 | Which was_ the_ reason? |
18789 | Which? |
18789 | Who is Mr John Rivière? |
18789 | Who is Rivière? |
18789 | Who is the man? |
18789 | Who sends cables in my name to my managers? |
18789 | Who wrote it? |
18789 | Who''s this brother? |
18789 | Who''s to hang it up? |
18789 | Why are you here? |
18789 | Why are you so bitter against her? |
18789 | Why could n''t you have stayed away altogether? |
18789 | Why did n''t the fools show a blasted light? |
18789 | Why did n''t they show a blasted light? |
18789 | Why did n''t they show a blasted light? |
18789 | Why did you come back? |
18789 | Why did you have Clifford impersonated? |
18789 | Why did you leave me so abruptly at Arles? |
18789 | Why did you marry_ me_? |
18789 | Why did you say that you had lived with my husband at Nîmes? |
18789 | Why did you take the name of John Rivière? |
18789 | Why do you wish to know? |
18789 | Why is he back from Canada so soon? |
18789 | Why not? |
18789 | Why not? |
18789 | Why not? |
18789 | Why not? |
18789 | Why now? |
18789 | Why should n''t I change my mind? |
18789 | Why should they be afraid of me, Dad? |
18789 | Why to- morrow? |
18789 | Why were you at Arles? 18789 Why?" |
18789 | Why? |
18789 | Why? |
18789 | Why? |
18789 | Why? |
18789 | Why? |
18789 | Will you trust to me-- trust to me implicitly without asking for reasons? |
18789 | Will you write a letter for me to say that I''m unwell and ca n''t travel away from Arles? |
18789 | Wo n''t you believe me when I say that I''m genuinely anxious to do the right thing by you, and clear up the tangle I''ve made of your life and mine? 18789 Wo n''t you read it out?" |
18789 | Woman the sex that gives? 18789 Work? |
18789 | Would n''t you prefer a more cheerful topic? |
18789 | Would you mind coming round to my rooms? |
18789 | Written? |
18789 | Yes...._ Cherchez la femme._"Why do you say that? |
18789 | Yes; but why? 18789 Yes?" |
18789 | Yes? |
18789 | You are an Englishman? |
18789 | You came back because Mr Larssen called you back? |
18789 | You came back to me, but could I have held you? |
18789 | You care for the idea? |
18789 | You do n''t believe----? |
18789 | You do n''t care to go to Canada? |
18789 | You do n''t mean to say that the letter I received from Arles was written by Clifford himself? |
18789 | You do n''t think I ought to----? |
18789 | You have n''t forgotten the little sermon I had to preach to you on the infallibility of my owners, the_ Europe Chronicle_? |
18789 | You intended to----? |
18789 | You know him? |
18789 | You know him? |
18789 | You know human nature? |
18789 | You know what? |
18789 | You mean Hegelmann? |
18789 | You mean a framed- up divorce? 18789 You mean blinded for life-- in both eyes?" |
18789 | You mean that you want Mr Rivière to return to you openly as your husband? |
18789 | You mean that you want to get permission from the Courts to presume death, and then take possession of his property? |
18789 | You mean that you''ll tell them? |
18789 | You mean the extent of the country? |
18789 | You mean women of the underworld? 18789 You never gave in to him on that ground?" |
18789 | You or I? |
18789 | You remember at Nîmes telling me that your father had lost the last remnant of his fortune speculating in one of the Clifford Matheson companies? |
18789 | You remember me-- Martin? |
18789 | You saw through it at once? |
18789 | You specified two_ apaches_, did n''t you? |
18789 | You swear to me that you''ve told no one you''re Clifford Matheson? |
18789 | You tell me he lied? |
18789 | You think I''m trying to bluff you? 18789 You thought me dead?" |
18789 | You want control for yourself? |
18789 | You want me to take it direct on the machine, sir? |
18789 | You went to Arles for research? |
18789 | You will come again later to- night? |
18789 | You withdraw the bricks? |
18789 | You''ll accept it now? |
18789 | You''ll prove to me that you''re Clifford Matheson right enough? |
18789 | You''ll take something with me before you go? |
18789 | You''re certain of that? |
18789 | You''re sure now? |
18789 | You''ve seen Miss Verney, I suppose? |
18789 | Your salary is? |
18789 | Your wife, then, is the woman I saw in the Côte d''Azur Rapide? |
18789 | _ Quien sabe?_There was a long silence between them-- a silence which held no constraint, a silence that exists only between those in deep sympathy. |
18789 | _ Sure?_"Positive. 18789 2 and 4 might be? 18789 352? |
18789 | A blind girl... helpless... without resources of her own.... Do you think I''m flint?" |
18789 | A case of_ cherchez la femme_? |
18789 | A question framed itself on her lips; she hesitated; finally it came out:"Then you were not happy together?" |
18789 | After a moment of reflection he added:"Would it satisfy you if I were to suppress names?" |
18789 | After a pause came this question:"Dad, must I have all your money when I grow up? |
18789 | Aloud he said, with a perfect assumption of resignation:"What do you wish me to do?" |
18789 | And in any case, what right would I have to say yes or no to a private decision of your own?" |
18789 | And why did you force that month''s wait at the last moment? |
18789 | And you?" |
18789 | Are you Mrs Matheson?" |
18789 | Are you agreeable, for one?" |
18789 | BUT FOR HOW LONG? |
18789 | But Rivière answered abruptly:"What did Miss Verney say to you to make such a complete change in your attitude towards her?" |
18789 | But has Clifford approved this scheme?" |
18789 | But what of you, what of you?" |
18789 | But why that brusque, boorish disappearance from Arles? |
18789 | But will he stay away from you?" |
18789 | CHAPTER VIII WHO AND WHERE IS RIVIÈRE? |
18789 | Cabin and all quite comfortable?" |
18789 | Can you recognize the make of machine off- hand?" |
18789 | Clifford when_ will_ you learn to read a woman?" |
18789 | Come, which is it-- morphia, hashish or what?" |
18789 | Could n''t some one else have some of it?" |
18789 | Could you come to the office?" |
18789 | D''you get that?" |
18789 | DO YOU CHOOSE HELL? |
18789 | Did n''t I tell you to fight every boy in the school until they acknowledged you master?" |
18789 | Did n''t he write you to that effect, Sir Francis?" |
18789 | Did n''t you tell me that?" |
18789 | Did you know then that I wanted you to speak to me? |
18789 | Do men and women look to you like animals? |
18789 | Do n''t you see the danger now? |
18789 | Do we understand that you wish to deny it?" |
18789 | Do you dream for one instant that his word would stand against mine in a court of law? |
18789 | Do you know that it''s doubtful if she will ever recover any of her sight?" |
18789 | Do you want me to put them there?" |
18789 | Do you_ know_?" |
18789 | Does it taste sweet?'' |
18789 | Ever notice that London is ringed around with the smell of fried fish and naphtha of an evening? |
18789 | For what?" |
18789 | Got that?" |
18789 | Had Clifford, suspecting her feelings towards Larssen, returned hurriedly in order to trap her? |
18789 | Had he had the right to cut loose from the life of Clifford Matheson? |
18789 | Had he offended her in some way? |
18789 | Had one alone of a married couple the right to decide on such a separation? |
18789 | Had she done the best possible thing to free Rivière? |
18789 | Has anything gone wrong with it?" |
18789 | Has n''t he written you?" |
18789 | Have you everything you want for the journey?" |
18789 | Have you got those signatures of Clifford Matheson''s?" |
18789 | Have you seen anything of him?" |
18789 | Have you the pluck to take your opportunity?" |
18789 | He paused suddenly in the doorway and asked her abruptly:"How do you know my name?" |
18789 | Her slender means would soon be exhausted-- what was she to do then? |
18789 | How does it strike you?" |
18789 | How many fights did you have this term, before you got ill?" |
18789 | How-- why? |
18789 | I always hate to be taken at a disadvantage, as you ought to know by now.... Clifford, when_ will_ you learn to read women as well as you read men? |
18789 | I do n''t bluff-- shall I ring and have my secretary show it to you?" |
18789 | I have every confidence in your skill, but is it not possible that the help of an eye specialist from Paris or Lyons might be of service?" |
18789 | I made a special interview with him.... By the way, you know that the Hudson Bay flotation is going strong on the wing?" |
18789 | I shivered even at the words.... Do you believe in Fate?" |
18789 | I take it you only arrived in Wiesbaden to- day?" |
18789 | I thought then.... And when you offered to devote your life to me? |
18789 | I''ll make allowances for you-- will_ you_ make allowances for me?" |
18789 | I, doctor?" |
18789 | In which part of the ship does he live?" |
18789 | Is Clifford in London?" |
18789 | Is he engaged on any big scheme just now? |
18789 | Is n''t it possible for you to suppress this story?" |
18789 | Is n''t that what you think as well as I?" |
18789 | Is she an ambitious girl?" |
18789 | Is that your idea of fraud?" |
18789 | Is there anything I can do for you before I go?" |
18789 | Is there no form of_ quid pro quo_...?" |
18789 | It''s in connexion with the Hudson Bay scheme-- you know about that?" |
18789 | It''s----It''s-- oh, what is the German for''vital?''" |
18789 | Lars Larssen would have said to himself:"Which woman do I want?" |
18789 | Larssen did not answer, but Olive rejoined sharply:"What does it matter if it helps to get the flotation off and make money?" |
18789 | Looking for a raise already?" |
18789 | Meanwhile, doing anything to- night? |
18789 | Now I''m relieved.... Is the laboratory here well equipped?" |
18789 | Now what is the wording written over it in ink?" |
18789 | Now, do n''t you feel better at having worked out the idea all on your own?" |
18789 | Of course you found nothing at the hospital?" |
18789 | Of what use to her would be the silken- padded cage she had longed to buy, when life held for her no work, no love? |
18789 | Or political ambitions, perhaps? |
18789 | Perhaps you could put me on to a news story in that direction? |
18789 | Presently he resumed:"Where is he now?" |
18789 | Quite sure you remember all my orders?" |
18789 | Rivière? |
18789 | Rivière? |
18789 | Said Martin:"You want to talk about contraband of war? |
18789 | Say to- morrow morning?" |
18789 | Shall I take your message?" |
18789 | She''ll be a different woman now.... Can you see to write?" |
18789 | Should she return to the nursing home, and wait about in its neighbourhood in the hope of meeting her husband on his way to see Elaine? |
18789 | Should she try the laboratory once more? |
18789 | Should she walk the length of the Wilhelmstrasse on the chance of crossing him there? |
18789 | So much for this world; and now, my friends, what of the next world?" |
18789 | Sound good to you?" |
18789 | Still----""Can you fix up St Aubyn and Carleton- Wingate?" |
18789 | Suppose I show you over it?" |
18789 | Surely, Olive, you can spare me for a day? |
18789 | Take the draft scheme and look it through at your leisure.... Now what''s the plan of amusement for to- night?" |
18789 | That evades his agreement with me.... What''s the price of a full- page advertisement in your paper?" |
18789 | That he was free to live out his life as John Rivière?" |
18789 | That you never wanted to see him again? |
18789 | That''s it, is n''t it?" |
18789 | That''s the big test, is n''t it?" |
18789 | The devil stands beside them and whispers mockingly:''I have given you everything your heart lusted for; does it taste sweet? |
18789 | The doctor had spoken of saving the right eye, but was this mere professional optimism? |
18789 | The usual arranged affair?" |
18789 | Then she added:"And you''re wondering why an unmarried woman should be wandering alone amongst the by- ways of France?" |
18789 | Then she asked:"Will you write a letter for me?" |
18789 | There must be something underlying Matheson''s sudden access of scruples-- what was it? |
18789 | There was an unlooked- for constraint in her voice as she inquired:"Another cup?" |
18789 | Under cover of the playing, while Sir Francis was reading a novel of turf life, Olive whispered:"Ca n''t we have a few moments together by ourselves?" |
18789 | Vat name shall I say?" |
18789 | Was Fate to punish him through the woman he loved? |
18789 | Was mother very beautiful?" |
18789 | Was there nobody who could throw light on his whereabouts? |
18789 | We saved up some of it for to- day-- have you seen? |
18789 | What about Rivière-- is he coming to Monte?" |
18789 | What are you going to do about the coat and stick at Neuilly?" |
18789 | What are_ your_ ambitions?" |
18789 | What did he guess? |
18789 | What did he know? |
18789 | What did you say the man''s name was?" |
18789 | What did you tell him?" |
18789 | What do you want me to do?" |
18789 | What do you want?" |
18789 | What does it say?" |
18789 | What had Olive said to him? |
18789 | What have you been doing to yourself? |
18789 | What name did you say?" |
18789 | What possible----?" |
18789 | What was Elaine to do with her life? |
18789 | What was she to do for her livelihood? |
18789 | What was the man driving at? |
18789 | What was the subject of your interview with him?" |
18789 | What''s happened to make you switch at the last moment?" |
18789 | What''s the meaning of all this?" |
18789 | What''s the particular text you''re heaving bricks at?" |
18789 | When Olive had finished, Matheson asked her quietly:"Why did you marry me?" |
18789 | When are you coming yourself?" |
18789 | When he had the young fellow seated with the light full on him, Larssen asked coldly:"What''s your song? |
18789 | Where is Rivière? |
18789 | Where is he?" |
18789 | Where was Rivière? |
18789 | Which is it to be-- you or I?" |
18789 | Which will you hear first, your husband''s or mine?" |
18789 | Who and where is Rivière? |
18789 | Who banged the lid down?" |
18789 | Who is Rivière?" |
18789 | Who is speaking?" |
18789 | Who was this man? |
18789 | Why all this mystery surrounding him? |
18789 | Why are you here? |
18789 | Why could n''t they realise how little their patient, plodding service could ever bring them? |
18789 | Why did they lower so slowly? |
18789 | Why do n''t you row? |
18789 | Why does n''t he write? |
18789 | Why had Rivière sent no answer to her message? |
18789 | Why had he not come to Monte Carlo as arranged? |
18789 | Why had he sent no line to Olive to excuse himself? |
18789 | Why have you changed your appearance? |
18789 | Why not see a doctor and get him to prescribe you a tonic and a quiet place to build up your health in? |
18789 | Why should he sacrifice her for the sake of an altruistic ideal? |
18789 | Why should such an impossible story be set afloat, and what was the"reliable source"spoken of? |
18789 | Why this sudden cold reserve? |
18789 | Why was she at Arles?" |
18789 | Why wo n''t you be frank with me?" |
18789 | Why?" |
18789 | Will you excuse me? |
18789 | Will you give me your address?" |
18789 | Will you take him round and show him everything?" |
18789 | Will you tell him that I am here?" |
18789 | Wo n''t you stay and take lunch with me? |
18789 | Would I be mad enough to risk my reputation unless I had looked at every move on the board?" |
18789 | Would Olive be the right stepmother for the boy? |
18789 | Would it be better for her to be at the hotel, or at the town hospital, or here?" |
18789 | Would n''t it be kinder to let_ me_ arrange it?" |
18789 | Would release ever come in time to save him? |
18789 | You agree?" |
18789 | You do n''t imagine that it''s sufficient merely to say you do n''t defend the suit? |
18789 | You know some of their tricks?" |
18789 | You know that I never break a promise to my staff?" |
18789 | You note that I place Mrs Matheson before yourself? |
18789 | You notice that I limp a little? |
18789 | You remember that, do n''t you?" |
18789 | You understand my position now, Miss Verney?" |
18789 | You''re going home on holiday, I expect?" |
18789 | You''re quite certain you''d like to hear the outside view of your actions this past three weeks?" |
18789 | You''ve freed my hands to fight down Larssen, but at what a cost to yourself?" |
18789 | and Larssen''s little boy?" |
18789 | cover? |
18789 | man when you started your business life, or did you come to realize it gradually?" |
14204 | A good or a bad omen? |
14204 | A lady friend of mine, sir? |
14204 | A man at twenty- eight? 14204 About to be?" |
14204 | After all,she added in an effort to appear cheerful,"what matter where we live so long as we have each other?" |
14204 | Ah, that''s just it-- how? |
14204 | Ah, your daughter-- you have a daughter? |
14204 | Am I as bad as that? |
14204 | An injustice? |
14204 | And marry her? |
14204 | And so he must be sacrificed? |
14204 | And what do you think was the reason for preserving the anonymity? |
14204 | And you, father-- do you believe Ryder did this? |
14204 | Another friend like that of yesterday? |
14204 | Any relation to J.B.? |
14204 | Anything against her character? |
14204 | Are n''t you proud of me, dad? |
14204 | Are the Republican Committee still waiting? |
14204 | Because? |
14204 | Blame you? 14204 But because a woman has a good character, that does n''t necessarily make her a desirable match, does it?" |
14204 | But can such things be in a civilized community? |
14204 | But if-- he loves Judge Rossmore''s daughter? |
14204 | But what are you going to do? |
14204 | But what can you do? |
14204 | But why should you punish me because my father fails to regard the matter as we do? |
14204 | But,said Shirley puzzled,"I shall have to tell him that you--""What?" |
14204 | By the way, Bagley,asked Jefferson,"when do you expect father to return? |
14204 | Can I do anything for you, Miss? |
14204 | Can not he be exposed, wo n''t the press take the matter up, can not we show conspiracy? |
14204 | Could n''t you compel him to return them? |
14204 | Criminal? |
14204 | Did n''t you ask me to see you here? |
14204 | Did they tell you who I am-- the daughter of Judge Rossmore? |
14204 | Did you ask for me, sir? |
14204 | Did you have a good time? |
14204 | Did you tell Shirley? |
14204 | Did you want to see me, father? |
14204 | Do n''t you agree with me? |
14204 | Do n''t you think your daughter should be informed of what has happened? |
14204 | Do n''t you want to walk a little? |
14204 | Do they? |
14204 | Do you expect me to sit and listen patiently to your wild theories of social reform? 14204 Do you know what she has done?" |
14204 | Do you mean to say that if you had positive proof? |
14204 | Do you really believe this, that John Ryder deliberately concocted the bribery charge with the sole purpose of ruining my father? |
14204 | Do you still intend going away? |
14204 | Do you think I''d marry a man whose father is as deep a discredit to the human race as your father is? 14204 Does she mean it?" |
14204 | Does your son still love this girl? 14204 Doing?" |
14204 | Elope with the secretary? |
14204 | Finally? |
14204 | Five thousand dollars? |
14204 | From Judge Rossmore, were they not? |
14204 | From whom did you receive these letters? |
14204 | Gone away-- where? |
14204 | Has Sergeant Ellison come? |
14204 | Has any woman sifted it over? |
14204 | Have n''t you a word of shame for this disgrace you have brought upon me? |
14204 | Have you absolute proof in that drawer? |
14204 | Have you anything to add? |
14204 | Have you ever seen these letters before? |
14204 | Have you found the author of''The American Octopus''? |
14204 | Have you stopped to think whether it would be fair to me? |
14204 | Have you? |
14204 | Hello, Jorkins, are you there? 14204 Hello, Shirley,"he cried gaily;"who would have expected to find you rusticating on a bench here? |
14204 | How are you going to tell him? |
14204 | How are you, Mr. Grimsby? 14204 How dare you address me in this manner when you know I and Mr. Ryder are engaged?" |
14204 | How dare you presume to judge my actions or to criticise my methods? |
14204 | How dare you treat my things in this manner? |
14204 | How did she take it? |
14204 | How did you know it was Judge Rossmore? |
14204 | How do_ you_ know? |
14204 | How does he take it? |
14204 | How is your father? |
14204 | How? |
14204 | I could stay here forever, could n''t you? |
14204 | I mean, What can you show as your life work? 14204 I often--""If I let you?" |
14204 | I suppose we can guess what the business is, eh? |
14204 | I think it would postpone the era of the Brotherhood of man indefinitely, do n''t you? |
14204 | I-- er-- we-- er-- my sister Jane and I called to--"Wo n''t you sit down? |
14204 | If the history of every financial transaction were made known, how many of us would escape public disgrace? 14204 If you had absolute proof in that drawer, for instance? |
14204 | In what category would I be placed? |
14204 | Is father still reading this? |
14204 | Is it a bargain? |
14204 | Is it their own? |
14204 | Is it true then that he is selfishness incarnate? 14204 Is it true"asked the senator,"that you were about to marry this man secretly?" |
14204 | Is marriage so very commonplace? |
14204 | Is my father in? |
14204 | Is n''t it beautiful? |
14204 | Is n''t it delightful here? |
14204 | Is n''t it? |
14204 | Is n''t that rather strong? |
14204 | Is not the road rich enough to bear the loss? |
14204 | Is that you, Bagley? 14204 Is there?" |
14204 | It is n''t that Rossmore girl, is it? |
14204 | It''s a cute little house, is n''t it? |
14204 | It''s a point in her favor, is n''t it? |
14204 | Jane, do you know you are uttering a blasphemy? 14204 Let me see,"stammered the secretary,"there is the White Star, the North German Lloyd, the Atlantic Transport--""Have you any preference?" |
14204 | Make her my wife? |
14204 | May I come in to say good- bye? |
14204 | May I come in? |
14204 | May I have a few minutes of your time, father? |
14204 | Miss Shirley Rossmore? |
14204 | My dear Miss Green,she gasped;"what''s this I hear-- going away suddenly without giving me warning?" |
14204 | My dear boy, when did you arrive? |
14204 | My dear child,he said,"what are you talking about? |
14204 | Not even if I had the absolute proof in that drawer? |
14204 | Now tell me,he said,"what does it all mean? |
14204 | Of course, you''re not going to- night? |
14204 | Oh no-- no but--"No engagement at eleven o''clock tomorrow morning? |
14204 | Oh say-- this is hardly fair-- three against one-- really-- I''m awfully sorry, eh, what? |
14204 | Oh,exclaimed the financier,"then you think it is a mere_ nom de plume_?" |
14204 | Oh,laughed Jefferson,"he''s afraid some one will kidnap him? |
14204 | Perhaps I had better go? |
14204 | Please, miss, will you come down to lunch? |
14204 | Prejudices against a thousand million dollars? |
14204 | Prying, did you say? |
14204 | Ready for work again, eh? 14204 Really?" |
14204 | Returns to England? |
14204 | Run away with her? |
14204 | Say, Bagley,he cried,"what does this mean? |
14204 | Say? |
14204 | Shirley,he said,"do you remember that talk we had on the ship? |
14204 | So I contaminate even good money? |
14204 | So bad that I contaminate even good money? |
14204 | So his fate is decided even before he is tried? |
14204 | So she has refused you again, eh? |
14204 | So soon? |
14204 | So that is the mysterious work you spoke of-- to get those letters? |
14204 | So you are Shirley Green, eh? |
14204 | So you think your life is a good example to follow? |
14204 | So you thought my daughter looked pale and that a little excursion to Buffalo would be a good thing for her? 14204 So you''re not going away now?" |
14204 | So,he said sternly,"this is your latest act of rebellion, is it? |
14204 | Something of the sort-- how did you guess? |
14204 | Something to compensate? |
14204 | Suppose the injunction is sustained? |
14204 | Suppose,she said,"we all wanted to follow it, suppose we all wanted to be the richest, the most powerful personage in the world?" |
14204 | Surely you can guess when I say the most powerful man in the United States? 14204 Tell me,"he repeated,"what do the papers say about the book?" |
14204 | That is right,he replied;"but which is likely to give you greater joy-- a literary success or a happy wifehood? |
14204 | That means that Judge Rossmore will be removed? |
14204 | The dying father, the sorrowing mother-- and the daughter, what is she supposed to be doing? |
14204 | The law? |
14204 | Then why did you remain here with me when the Senator went out with Mr. Ryder, senior? |
14204 | Those letters my father speaks of-- they would be useful, would they not? |
14204 | To meet me and my son? |
14204 | To- morrow? |
14204 | Upstairs-- three rooms, eh? 14204 We are very fortunate in having such pleasant weather, do n''t you think so, Madam? |
14204 | Well, Bagley? |
14204 | Well, Jefferson,he said kindly,"did you have a good time abroad?" |
14204 | Well, Sergeant, what have you got to report? |
14204 | Well, is that all? |
14204 | Well, sergeant,said Mr. Ryder cordially,"what have you to tell me? |
14204 | Well, what do you say? |
14204 | Well, what have you been doing about the book? |
14204 | Well, what of it? |
14204 | Well-- what then? |
14204 | Well? |
14204 | What about these newspaper charges? 14204 What did you say?" |
14204 | What do I care what the world says when I''m dead? |
14204 | What do you mean, child? 14204 What do you mean, sir?" |
14204 | What do you mean? 14204 What do you mean?" |
14204 | What do you mean? |
14204 | What do you mean? |
14204 | What do you want me to call you? |
14204 | What have I done? |
14204 | What have they done to you? |
14204 | What have you got there? |
14204 | What is socialism? |
14204 | What is the moral of your life? |
14204 | What letters do you refer to? |
14204 | What objection has your son to Miss Roberts? |
14204 | What rabble? |
14204 | What reasons? |
14204 | What steamers leave to- morrow for England? |
14204 | What will it give the public that it has not got already? |
14204 | What will you do? |
14204 | What''s brought you from Washington at a critical time like this? 14204 What''s that about mother dancing?" |
14204 | What''s that? |
14204 | What''s that? |
14204 | What''s the matter? |
14204 | What''s the objection to the girl? |
14204 | What? |
14204 | When do they attend lectures? |
14204 | When do they read? |
14204 | When shall we be in, captain? |
14204 | Where are the letters? |
14204 | Where are you going? |
14204 | Where is his daughter? |
14204 | Where''s father? |
14204 | Where''s your list? |
14204 | Where,he asked,"Madison Avenue?" |
14204 | Who are they? |
14204 | Who else? |
14204 | Who the devil is this Bagley? |
14204 | Who was here first? |
14204 | Who''s there? |
14204 | Who''s there? |
14204 | Who,he added,"would have the courage to marry a girl whose father was publicly disgraced?" |
14204 | Who? |
14204 | Why ca n''t you govern yourself? |
14204 | Why did you do this? |
14204 | Why do n''t you shake hands with her? |
14204 | Why do n''t you study women for a change? |
14204 | Why do you ask? 14204 Why do you want to add to the girl''s misery? |
14204 | Why not be accurate? |
14204 | Why not call me Jefferson? 14204 Why not study theology and become a preacher?" |
14204 | Why not? 14204 Why not? |
14204 | Why not? |
14204 | Why not? |
14204 | Why not? |
14204 | Why should I punish myself-- why should we punish those nearest and dearest? |
14204 | Why so sober,demanded Ryder,"you''ve gained your point, your father is to be restored to you, you''ll marry the man you love?" |
14204 | Why, Jeff, my boy, is that you? 14204 Why, Miss Rossmore, what are you doing out driving?" |
14204 | Why, is he wild? |
14204 | Why, is it you, Jeff? 14204 Why?" |
14204 | Will you trust me to go alone? |
14204 | With my daughter? |
14204 | Work? |
14204 | Would you sacrifice my happiness and your own? |
14204 | Yes, yes, Shir-- Miss Green, will you? |
14204 | Yes,said Kate, taking a letter from her bosom,"I wanted to ask you what this means?" |
14204 | Yet what good is your money to you? |
14204 | You are going away? |
14204 | You cabled for Shirley? |
14204 | You cabled for Shirley? |
14204 | You came to ask your father to help you? |
14204 | You do n''t think my life would make good reading? |
14204 | You expected to see Senator Roberts, did n''t you? |
14204 | You going away-- where to? |
14204 | You have work to do-- what work? |
14204 | You may be right and yet--"Am I to help you or not? |
14204 | You mean you think I want to listen to you? |
14204 | You never proposed to run away with my daughter? |
14204 | You sent for me, father? |
14204 | You sent him a copy of''The American Octopus''? |
14204 | You wish to see me, Madame? |
14204 | You work, Shirley? 14204 You? |
14204 | You? |
14204 | You? |
14204 | Your book--''The American Octopus,''is selling well? |
14204 | Your enemies? |
14204 | _ Combien?_he asked the_ cocher_. |
14204 | _ How_ did you make it? |
14204 | _ Wie geht es, meine damen?_Shirley turned on hearing the guttural salutation. |
14204 | _ You?_she inquired in a tone of surprise. |
14204 | _ You_--Miss Green? |
14204 | A man''s life at stake? |
14204 | After a silence he said:"Do you know you say the strangest things?" |
14204 | Ah, why had she spared him in her book? |
14204 | Ah, would n''t it be sublime selfishness?" |
14204 | Am I right?" |
14204 | And even if he did not how could she possibly find those letters with him watching her, and all in the brief time of a conventional afternoon call? |
14204 | And what of the future? |
14204 | And what, asks the foreigner, has the American hustler accomplished that his slower- going Continental brother has not done as well? |
14204 | And you-- you have the brazen effrontery to ask me to plead for your father? |
14204 | Are you afraid I shall love you? |
14204 | Are you afraid he will love you? |
14204 | Are you prepared to reconstruct human nature?" |
14204 | Are you willing to sacrifice your son''s future to a mere boyish whim?" |
14204 | Are you--?" |
14204 | Arranging the pillow under her head, he asked:"Is that comfortable?" |
14204 | As a gentle hint he said softly:"Did I interrupt you, Madam?" |
14204 | As to the newspapers-- when did you ever hear of them championing a man when he''s down?" |
14204 | Back from Europe, Jefferson? |
14204 | Besides, was not Mr. Ryder returning home on the same ship? |
14204 | Besides,"she added,"what right have I to object?" |
14204 | But Ryder, Sr., continued:"Do I care? |
14204 | But before he could open his mouth Mr. Ryder said:"Bagley, when did you see my son, Jefferson, last?" |
14204 | But by what strange fatality, he thought to himself, had his daughter in this book of hers assailed the very man who had encompassed his own ruin? |
14204 | But did she care for him? |
14204 | But evidently she thought better of it, for, taking a cue from Mrs. Rossmore, she asked in the sarcastic manner of her mistress:"Four is it now, M''m? |
14204 | But how about this?" |
14204 | But how could he employ her? |
14204 | But how could he tell Shirley? |
14204 | But how could they be got at? |
14204 | But how on earth did Judge Rossmore''s daughter come to be travelling in the company of John Burkett Ryder''s son? |
14204 | But is the judiciary hostile? |
14204 | But it was smart of Jefferson to have sent Ryder, Sr., the book, so she smiled graciously on his son as she asked:"How do you know he got it? |
14204 | But she could never remain angry long, and when they said good- night she whispered demurely:"Are you cross with me, Jeff?" |
14204 | But what was being done? |
14204 | But where''s the daughter now?" |
14204 | But, thought Jefferson, why should he spoil a good thing? |
14204 | By what mysterious agency had this man penetrated his own most intimate thoughts? |
14204 | CHAPTER IV"Tell me, what do the papers say?" |
14204 | Can you guess what it was?" |
14204 | Can you wait till I''m through? |
14204 | Closing quote inserted:"How?" |
14204 | Closing quote inserted:... What account will you be able to give?" |
14204 | Closing quote inserted:... a hopeless love?" |
14204 | Come, what do you say?" |
14204 | Come, what is it?" |
14204 | Come, will you join forces with me?" |
14204 | Could Jefferson''s father have done them such a wrong as this? |
14204 | Could he be dreaming? |
14204 | Could he do so again? |
14204 | Could he dream that the Great Northwestern Mining Company and the company to which he had entrusted his few thousands were one and the same? |
14204 | Could it be that the proceedings in the Senate were ended and the result known? |
14204 | Could one have fine houses to live in, or all sorts of modern conveniences to add to one''s comfort, without money? |
14204 | Could she believe her ears? |
14204 | Could she conceal them? |
14204 | Could the book- lover buy books, the art- lover purchase pictures? |
14204 | Could the human mind grasp the possibilities of such a colossal fortune? |
14204 | Could this, she thought, explain Jefferson''s strange behaviour? |
14204 | Determined, eh? |
14204 | Did Judge Rossmore take a bribe from the Great Northwestern or did n''t he? |
14204 | Did she love him? |
14204 | Did you ever read the fable of the Lion and the Mouse? |
14204 | Did you go down to Massapequa?" |
14204 | Do n''t you think she has suffered enough?" |
14204 | Do you know a little place on Long Island called Massapequa?" |
14204 | Do you know that I practically control the Congress of the United States and that no legislative measure becomes law unless it has my approval?" |
14204 | Do you know that a man does n''t get his horse sense till he''s forty?" |
14204 | Do you know who the hero is?" |
14204 | Do you know you''re the first woman I ever took into my confidence-- I mean at sight?" |
14204 | Do you realize that my wealth is so vast that I scarcely know myself what I am worth? |
14204 | Do you suppose for one instant that I would condescend to trouble myself with your affairs?" |
14204 | Do you think I''m fool enough to suppose I can buy my way? |
14204 | Does n''t that tell you what the world thinks of your methods?" |
14204 | Does she know of this radical change in your affairs?" |
14204 | Father is going to clear his name of this preposterous charge and we''re going to help him, are n''t we, mother? |
14204 | Finally losing patience she asked him bluntly:"Jefferson, what''s the matter with you to- night? |
14204 | Five millions or competition? |
14204 | For a moment her heart stood still-- suppose the shock of this shameful accusation had killed him? |
14204 | For what?" |
14204 | General Dodge? |
14204 | Going away? |
14204 | Had Ryder any twinges of conscience? |
14204 | Had Ryder really got some plan up his sleeve after all? |
14204 | Had he come, after all? |
14204 | Had he not made a cool twenty millions by the deal? |
14204 | Had his insensate craving for gold and power led him to neglect those other things in life which contribute more truly to man''s happiness? |
14204 | Had my son been seen there?" |
14204 | Had the forces of right and justice prevailed, after all? |
14204 | Has not a President of the United States declared that the State must eventually curb the great fortunes? |
14204 | Has not the flag of socialism waved recently from the White House? |
14204 | Have you ever stopped to think of that?" |
14204 | He must be saved in the Senate, but how-- how? |
14204 | He must do something to prevent it; the marriage must not take place, but what could he do? |
14204 | He repeated:"Did n''t you hear me? |
14204 | He restrained his impatience with difficulty as he replied:"Whose side am I on? |
14204 | He whispered:"What were you thinking of me-- good or bad?" |
14204 | Her face transfigured, radiant she exclaimed breathlessly:"What, Mr. Ryder, you mean that you are going to help my father?" |
14204 | Her thoughts travelling faster than the ship, Shirley suddenly asked:"Do you really think Mr. Ryder will use his influence to help my father?" |
14204 | His business methods I consider disgraceful-- you understand that, do n''t you, Shirley?" |
14204 | How can my love of power do you an injustice?" |
14204 | How can you expect to reach Ryder? |
14204 | How could I think anything bad of you?" |
14204 | How could he fight them back, what could he do to protect himself? |
14204 | How could she become the daughter- in- law of the man who had ruined her own father? |
14204 | How dare they make him out such a monster? |
14204 | How did you come to call on father?" |
14204 | How did you do it? |
14204 | How did you guess?" |
14204 | How do you do, Senator?" |
14204 | How is Paris?" |
14204 | How is it that our road can not reach Judge Rossmore and make him presents?" |
14204 | How is the Rossmore case progressing?" |
14204 | How long would the nation tolerate being thus ruthlessly trodden under the unclean heels of an insolent oligarchy? |
14204 | How many literary reputations to- day conceal an aching heart and find it difficult to make both ends meet? |
14204 | How many millions could one man make by honest methods? |
14204 | How many of them would bear the searchlight of investigation? |
14204 | How''s father?" |
14204 | I mean the one you object to?" |
14204 | I suppose you''ve heard about her father?" |
14204 | I thought we had agreed not to discuss Judge Rossmore any further?" |
14204 | I want to ask you, Miss Green, where you got the character of your central figure-- the Octopus, as you call him-- John Broderick?" |
14204 | I--""Do you think this man deserves to be punished?" |
14204 | If I am clever enough to accumulate millions who can stop me?" |
14204 | If it was well paid, why should she not accept? |
14204 | In a coaxing tone he said:"Come, where did you get those details? |
14204 | In a voice that was unnaturally calm, he asked:"Why do n''t you produce them before the Senate?" |
14204 | In other words, was his life a mistake? |
14204 | Is it fair to my church, is it fair to my flock? |
14204 | Is it not indeed fortunate that every nation finds itself superior to its neighbour? |
14204 | Is it not so, Jefferson?" |
14204 | Is it not true that we have been singularly free from litigation until recently, and that most of the decisions were favourable to the road? |
14204 | Is it, therefore, not possible to take life easily and still achieve? |
14204 | Is n''t it still more absurd that we should be helpless and dejected and unhappy because we are on Long Island instead of Madison Avenue? |
14204 | Is n''t that better than a literary reputation?" |
14204 | Is n''t the sting of impotent failure enough to meet without striving against a hopeless love?" |
14204 | Is that not an achievement to relate to future generations?" |
14204 | Is this any of your doing?" |
14204 | It only increases my determination to see her and her--"Suddenly changing the topic he asked:"When do you leave us?" |
14204 | It was on his mind constantly._""Who told you that?" |
14204 | It''s a jolly well written book and raps you American millionaires jolly well-- what?" |
14204 | Jefferson set his jaw fast and the familiar Ryder gleam came into his eyes as he responded:"Why not? |
14204 | Judge Stott? |
14204 | Kate would make him an excellent wife, while what do we know about the other woman? |
14204 | May I?" |
14204 | Must I be punished because you have failed? |
14204 | My son wants to see me? |
14204 | Next?" |
14204 | Now she had them, she must not let them go again; yet how could she keep them unobserved? |
14204 | Now what about that Rossmore girl? |
14204 | Of course, why did he not think of it before? |
14204 | Oh, Massapequa is a lovely spot, is n''t it? |
14204 | Oh, father, how could you have done that? |
14204 | Oh, why had he not kept the secretary''s letter? |
14204 | Opening quote inserted:"Tell me, what do the papers say?" |
14204 | Putting her broom aside and placing her arms akimbo she exclaimed in an injured tone:"And it''s a dayther you''ve got now? |
14204 | Ryder ignored the insinuation and proceeded:"What of our boasted free institutions if a man is to be restricted in what he may and may not do? |
14204 | Ryder took up the receiver and spoke to the butler downstairs:"Who''s that? |
14204 | Ryder, who had seen nothing of this by- play, said with a sneer:"Surely you did n''t come here to- night to tell me this?" |
14204 | Ryder?" |
14204 | Ryder?" |
14204 | See?" |
14204 | Sergeant Ellison? |
14204 | Shall I make your god my god? |
14204 | She had a sacred duty to perform, it was true; but would it be less well done because she declined to stifle the natural leanings of her womanhood? |
14204 | Shirley''s pulse throbbed faster, but she tried hard to appear unconcerned as she answered:"Oh, my book-- have you read it?" |
14204 | Single quote moved:"You sent him a copy of''The American Octopus''?" |
14204 | So he rushes from the cradle to the grave, and what''s the good, since he must one day die like all the rest? |
14204 | So it''s her you want to go to, eh? |
14204 | So, in better French than was at Jefferson''s command, she exclaimed:"Ten francs? |
14204 | Suddenly Stott, who was perusing an evening paper, asked:"By the way, where''s your daughter? |
14204 | Suddenly he asked her:"Have you heard from home recently?" |
14204 | Suppose he knew her by sight and roughly accused her of obtaining access to his house under false pretences and then had her ejected by the servants? |
14204 | Tell me, do you think he deserves such a fate?" |
14204 | Tell me,"he added, appealing to her,"why ca n''t I rule my own household, why ca n''t I govern my own child?" |
14204 | That Miss Rossmore was there, was she not?" |
14204 | That''s what you want to avoid, is n''t it?" |
14204 | The financier smiled grimly as he answered:"Your family in general-- me in particular, eh? |
14204 | The financier swung half- round in his chair, the smile of greeting faded out of his face, and his voice was hard as he replied coldly:"Again? |
14204 | The great financier was certainly able to do anything he chose, and had not his son Jefferson promised to win him over to their cause? |
14204 | The man took the letters and disappeared, while Jefferson, impatient, repeated his question:"My doing?" |
14204 | The press--"Mr. Grimsby''s red face grew more apoplectic as he blurted out:"Public opinion and the press be d----d. Who cares for public opinion? |
14204 | The rumours were true, then? |
14204 | Then addressing Shirley direct he said:"And you, fraulein, I hope you wo n''t be glad the voyage is over?" |
14204 | Then he stopped as if he had changed his mind and turning towards his son he demanded:"Do you mean to say that she has done with you?" |
14204 | Then interrupting himself he said amiably:"Wo n''t you do me the honour to meet my family?" |
14204 | Then quickly she asked:"But what does it matter? |
14204 | Then seriously, she added:"Jeff, why should we act like children? |
14204 | Then she added quickly:"I wonder if your father has seen it?" |
14204 | Then she added:"He''s the father of the girl you do n''t like, is n''t he?" |
14204 | Then turning again to his secretary he asked:"Well, Bagley, what is it?" |
14204 | Then turning on Mrs. Rossmore so suddenly that the poor woman nearly jumped out of her chair he asked:"Do you like strawberries?" |
14204 | Then why raise this barrier between us?" |
14204 | Then, abruptly, she asked:"Do your parents live in New York?" |
14204 | Then, who could tell? |
14204 | There is nothing in the Constitution of the United States that says we ca n''t have a daughter without consulting our help, is there?" |
14204 | There was only one way out-- would Stott go? |
14204 | These reflections were suddenly interrupted by the voice of Mrs. Blake calling out:"Shirley, where have you been? |
14204 | This time there''s a woman in the case-- and I need your woman''s wit--""How can I help you?" |
14204 | Turning again to his son, he went on:"Do you see this book? |
14204 | Turning to his sister, who was sitting in her corner like a petrified mummy, he added:"Jane, do you hear? |
14204 | Was he himself to blame? |
14204 | Was he not familiar with every possible phase of the game? |
14204 | Was he willing? |
14204 | Was he? |
14204 | Was it possible that the dreaded Colossus had capitulated and that she had saved her father? |
14204 | Was it possible? |
14204 | Was it possible? |
14204 | Was life worth living without money? |
14204 | Was not this a prize any man might well set himself out to win? |
14204 | Was she serious or merely jesting? |
14204 | Was that not just what she had to offer? |
14204 | Was this love? |
14204 | We have deceived your father, but he will forgive that, wo n''t you?" |
14204 | We intended to run away, did n''t we Fitz?" |
14204 | We never knew how much till to- day, did we? |
14204 | We shall be able to live for ourselves now, eh, father?" |
14204 | We turn after a man in the street and ask, Who is he? |
14204 | Well, do you know what I am going to do?" |
14204 | Well, what are we going to do about this injunction? |
14204 | Well, why not? |
14204 | Were her father''s among them? |
14204 | Were things so bad then? |
14204 | What account will you be able to give?" |
14204 | What are these rumours regarding Judge Rossmore? |
14204 | What are they hiding? |
14204 | What can I do now? |
14204 | What could be done? |
14204 | What could be the meaning of it? |
14204 | What could the Colossus do now to save the situation? |
14204 | What could the girl mean? |
14204 | What could these preposterous and abominable charges mean? |
14204 | What do I care for the world''s respect when my money makes the world my slave? |
14204 | What do you say?" |
14204 | What do you think of him as a type, how would you classify him?" |
14204 | What had Judge Rossmore done, after all, to deserve the frightful punishment the amalgamated interests had caused him to suffer? |
14204 | What have they done to you?" |
14204 | What have you done?" |
14204 | What is it to be? |
14204 | What is it, boy?" |
14204 | What is it?" |
14204 | What is it?" |
14204 | What is public opinion, anyhow? |
14204 | What is that but socialism?" |
14204 | What is your interest in this matter?" |
14204 | What kind of a woman could she be, this Shirley Green, to dare cross swords with a man whose power was felt in two hemispheres? |
14204 | What of the remedy? |
14204 | What respect can I have for a people that cringe before money and let it rule them? |
14204 | What right had this woman, a stranger both to Judge Rossmore and himself, to come here and catechise him? |
14204 | What singular, mysterious power had this girl acquired over him? |
14204 | What stages still to come, who knows? |
14204 | What strong man had not? |
14204 | What was the country coming to? |
14204 | What was the sense of slaving all one''s life, piling up a mass of money one can not possibly spend, when there is only one life to live? |
14204 | What was the world coming to when a son could talk to his father in this manner? |
14204 | What was this lie they had invented to ruin her father? |
14204 | What was to be done to save her father from this impeachment which she knew well would hurry him to his grave? |
14204 | What would his daughter say-- his Shirley? |
14204 | What would their future be, how could that proud, sensitive man her father bear this humiliation, this disgrace? |
14204 | What''s that to do with me? |
14204 | What''s that? |
14204 | What''s that? |
14204 | What''s that? |
14204 | What''s that? |
14204 | What, thought Jefferson, would be the outcome-- Socialism or Anarchy? |
14204 | When is father going to find that fellow out?" |
14204 | When they reached the street the senator inquired in a low tone:"Do you think they really believed Rossmore was influenced in his decision?" |
14204 | Where had she gone, what was this mysterious work of which she had spoken? |
14204 | Where have you children been all afternoon?" |
14204 | Where is Jefferson?" |
14204 | Where is he?" |
14204 | Where is she to- day? |
14204 | Where will you be then?" |
14204 | Where would it end? |
14204 | Who are they? |
14204 | Who else should it be?" |
14204 | Who is this unknown friend?" |
14204 | Who was this woman who knew him so well, who could read his inmost thoughts, who never made a mistake? |
14204 | Who were these strangers that intruded on her privacy offering a consolation she did not want? |
14204 | Why are you ashamed to let him see it? |
14204 | Why had he not come? |
14204 | Why had she attacked him so bitterly? |
14204 | Why had she not told her father at once? |
14204 | Why not ask your father?" |
14204 | Why not now? |
14204 | Why not? |
14204 | Why should Manhattan Island be a happier spot than Long Island? |
14204 | Why should he not be able to put a stop to these preposterous proceedings? |
14204 | Why should he? |
14204 | Why, after all, should she not know happiness like other women? |
14204 | Why? |
14204 | Will you please have a cab here in half an hour?" |
14204 | Will you take it?" |
14204 | Will you?" |
14204 | With a slight tinge of sarcasm he asked:"Is there any man in our public life who is unapproachable from some direction or other?" |
14204 | Would he come to Massapequa? |
14204 | Would he go? |
14204 | Would he miss them? |
14204 | Would he take her? |
14204 | Would his own father? |
14204 | Would it be womanly or honourable on my part to encourage you, unless I felt I reciprocated your feelings? |
14204 | Would n''t he do that much to help a friend?" |
14204 | Would n''t you help him then?" |
14204 | Would she undertake it? |
14204 | Would you?" |
14204 | Yes or No?" |
14204 | Yet what could he do? |
14204 | Yet why not? |
14204 | Yet, she reflected quickly, how could she prevent it? |
14204 | You are going to jilt the girl?" |
14204 | You are going to welsh on your word? |
14204 | You do n''t expect a man to cut loose his own kite, do you?" |
14204 | You know what''s going to happen to him, do n''t you?" |
14204 | You must n''t mind what Mr. Ryder says? |
14204 | You see yourself how impossible a marriage with Miss Rossmore would be, do n''t you?" |
14204 | You understand?" |
14204 | You?" |
14204 | [ Photo, from the play, of Shirley discussing her book with Mr. Ryder]"How do you classify him?" |
14204 | _ Pourquoi dix francs?_ I took your cab by the hour. |
14204 | and above that three more--""No,"smiled the judge,"then comes the roof?" |
14204 | burst in Jefferson,"why should she? |
14204 | exclaimed Ryder, Sr."Marriage with someone else?" |
14204 | exclaimed Ryder,"acknowledge to my son that I was in the wrong, that I''ve seen the error of my ways and wish to repent? |
14204 | exclaimed Shirley, changing colour,"you believe that John Burkett Ryder is at the bottom of this infamous accusation against father?" |
14204 | exclaimed her husband,"you have consulted Miss Green on the subject?" |
14204 | he said,"you deliberately sacrificed my interests to save this woman''s father-- you hear him, Miss Green? |
14204 | how are you?" |
14204 | she said, appealing to Ryder,"and you will go to Washington, you will save my father''s honour, his life, you will--?" |
5119 | A good or a bad omen? |
5119 | A lady friend of mine, sir? |
5119 | A man at twenty- eight? 5119 About to be?" |
5119 | Achetez des fleurs, monsieur, pour la jolie dame? |
5119 | After all,she added in an effort to appear cheerful,"what matter where we live so long as we have each other?" |
5119 | Ah, that''s just it-- how? |
5119 | Ah, your daughter-- you have a daughter? |
5119 | Am I as bad as that? |
5119 | An injustice? |
5119 | And marry her? |
5119 | And so he must be sacrificed? |
5119 | And what do you think was the reason for preserving the anonymity? |
5119 | And you, father-- do you believe Ryder did this? |
5119 | Another friend like that of yesterday? |
5119 | Any relation to J.B.? |
5119 | Anything against her character? |
5119 | Are n''t you proud of me, dad? |
5119 | Are the Republican Committee still waiting? |
5119 | Because? |
5119 | Blame you? 5119 But because a woman has a good character, that does n''t necessarily make her a desirable match, does it?" |
5119 | But can such things be in a civilized community? |
5119 | But if-- he loves Judge Rossmore''s daughter? |
5119 | But what are you going to do? |
5119 | But what can you do? |
5119 | But why should you punish me because my father fails to regard the matter as we do? |
5119 | But,said Shirley puzzled,"I shall have to tell him that you--""What?" |
5119 | By the way, Bagley,asked Jefferson,"when do you expect father to return? |
5119 | Can I do anything for you, Miss? |
5119 | Can not he be exposed, wo n''t the press take the matter up, can not we show conspiracy? |
5119 | Combien? |
5119 | Could n''t you compel him to return them? |
5119 | Criminal? |
5119 | Did n''t you ask me to see you here? |
5119 | Did they tell you who I am-- the daughter of Judge Rossmore? |
5119 | Did you ask for me, sir? 5119 Did you have a good time?" |
5119 | Did you tell Shirley? |
5119 | Did you want to see me, father? |
5119 | Do n''t you agree with me? |
5119 | Do n''t you think your daughter should be informed of what has happened? |
5119 | Do n''t you want to walk a little? |
5119 | Do they? |
5119 | Do you expect me to sit and listen patiently to your wild theories of social reform? 5119 Do you know what she has done?" |
5119 | Do you mean to say that if you had positive proof? |
5119 | Do you really believe this, that John Ryder deliberately concocted the bribery charge with the sole purpose of ruining my father? |
5119 | Do you still intend going away? |
5119 | Do you think I''d marry a man whose father is as deep a discredit to the human race as your father is? 5119 Does she mean it?" |
5119 | Does your son still love this girl? 5119 Doing?" |
5119 | Elope with the secretary? |
5119 | Finally? |
5119 | Five thousand dollars? |
5119 | From Judge Rossmore, were they not? |
5119 | From whom did you receive these letters? |
5119 | Gone away-- where? |
5119 | Has Sergeant Ellison come? |
5119 | Has any woman sifted it over? |
5119 | Have n''t you a word of shame for this disgrace you have brought upon me? |
5119 | Have you absolute proof in that drawer? |
5119 | Have you anything to add? |
5119 | Have you ever seen these letters before? |
5119 | Have you found the author of''The American Octopus''? |
5119 | Have you stopped to think whether it would be fair to me? |
5119 | Have you? |
5119 | Hello, Jorkins, are you there? 5119 Hello, Shirley,"he cried gaily;"who would have expected to find you rusticating on a bench here? |
5119 | How are you going to tell him? |
5119 | How are you, Mr. Grimsby? 5119 How dare you address me in this manner when you know I and Mr. Ryder are engaged?" |
5119 | How dare you presume to judge my actions or to criticise my methods? |
5119 | How dare you treat my things in this manner? |
5119 | How did she take it? |
5119 | How did you know it was Judge Rossmore? |
5119 | How did you make it? |
5119 | How do you know? |
5119 | How does he take it? |
5119 | How is your father? |
5119 | How? 5119 I could stay here forever, could n''t you?" |
5119 | I mean, what can you show as your life work? 5119 I often--""If I let you?" |
5119 | I suppose we can guess what the business is, eh? |
5119 | I think it would postpone the era of the Brotherhood of man indefinitely, do n''t you? |
5119 | I-- er-- we-- er-- my sister Jane and I called to--"Wo n''t you sit down? |
5119 | If the history of every financial transaction were made known, how many of us would escape public disgrace? 5119 If you had absolute proof in that drawer, for instance? |
5119 | In what category would I be placed? |
5119 | Is father still reading this? |
5119 | Is it a bargain? |
5119 | Is it their own? |
5119 | Is it true then that he is selfishness incarnate? 5119 Is it true?" |
5119 | Is marriage so very commonplace? |
5119 | Is my father in? |
5119 | Is n''t it beautiful? |
5119 | Is n''t it delightful here? |
5119 | Is n''t it? |
5119 | Is n''t that rather strong? |
5119 | Is not the road rich enough to bear the loss? |
5119 | Is that you, Bagley? 5119 Is there?" |
5119 | It is n''t that Rossmore girl, is it? |
5119 | It''s a cute little house, is n''t it? |
5119 | It''s a point in her favor, is n''t it? |
5119 | Jane, do you know you are uttering a blasphemy? 5119 Let me see,"stammered the secretary,"there is the White Star, the North German Lloyd, the Atlantic Transport--""Have you any preference?" |
5119 | Make her my wife? |
5119 | May I come in to say good- bye? |
5119 | May I come in? |
5119 | May I have a few minutes of your time, father? |
5119 | Miss Shirley Rossmore? |
5119 | My dear Miss Green,she gasped;"what''s this I hear-- going away suddenly without giving me warning?" |
5119 | My dear boy, when did you arrive? |
5119 | My dear child,he said,"what are you talking about? |
5119 | Not even if I had the absolute proof in that drawer? |
5119 | Now tell me,he said,"what does it all mean? |
5119 | Of course, you''re not going to- night? |
5119 | Oh no-- no but----"No engagement at eleven o''clock to- morrow morning? |
5119 | Oh say-- this is hardly fair-- three against one-- really-- I''m awfully sorry, eh, what? |
5119 | Oh,exclaimed, the financier,"then you think it is a mere nom de plume?" |
5119 | Oh,laughed Jefferson,"he''s afraid some one will kidnap him? |
5119 | Perhaps I had better go? |
5119 | Please, miss, will you come down to lunch? |
5119 | Prejudices against a thousand million dollars? |
5119 | Prying, did you say? |
5119 | Ready for work again, eh? 5119 Really?" |
5119 | Returns to England? |
5119 | Run away with her? |
5119 | Say, Bagley,he cried,"what does this mean? |
5119 | Say? |
5119 | Shirley,he said,"do you remember that talk we had on the ship? |
5119 | So bad that I contaminate even good money? |
5119 | So his fate is decided even before he is tried? |
5119 | So she has refused you again, eh? |
5119 | So soon? |
5119 | So that is the mysterious work you spoke of-- to get those letters? |
5119 | So you are Shirley Green, eh? |
5119 | So you think your life is a good example to follow? |
5119 | So you thought my daughter looked pale and that a little excursion to Buffalo would be a good thing for her? 5119 So you''re not going away now?" |
5119 | So,he said sternly,"this is your latest act of rebellion, is it? |
5119 | Something of the sort-- how did you guess? |
5119 | Something to compensate? |
5119 | Suppose the injunction is sustained? |
5119 | Suppose,she said,"we all wanted to follow it, suppose we all wanted to be the richest, the most powerful personage in the world?" |
5119 | Surely you can guess when I say the most powerful man in the United States? 5119 Tell me,"he repeated,"what do the papers say about the book?" |
5119 | That is right,he replied;"but which is likely to give you greater joy-- a literary success or a happy wifehood? |
5119 | That means that Judge Rossmore will be removed? |
5119 | The dying father, the sorrowing mother-- and the daughter, what is she supposed to be doing? |
5119 | The law? |
5119 | Then why did you remain here with me when the Senator went out with Mr. Ryder, senior? |
5119 | Those letters my father speaks of-- they would be useful, would they not? |
5119 | To meet me and my son? |
5119 | To- morrow? |
5119 | Upstairs-- three rooms, eh? 5119 We are very fortunate in having such pleasant weather, do n''t you think so, Madam? |
5119 | Well, Bagley? |
5119 | Well, Jefferson,he said kindly,"did you have a good time abroad?" |
5119 | Well, Sergeant, what have you got to report? |
5119 | Well, is that all? |
5119 | Well, sergeant,said Mr. Ryder cordially,"what have you to tell me? |
5119 | Well, what do you say? |
5119 | Well, what have you been doing about the book? |
5119 | Well, what of it? |
5119 | Well-- what then? |
5119 | Well? |
5119 | What about these newspaper charges? 5119 What did you say?" |
5119 | What do I care what the world says when I''m dead? |
5119 | What do you mean, child? 5119 What do you mean, sir?" |
5119 | What do you mean? 5119 What do you mean?" |
5119 | What do you mean? |
5119 | What do you mean? |
5119 | What do you want me to call you? |
5119 | What have I done? |
5119 | What have they done to you? |
5119 | What have you got there? |
5119 | What is socialism? |
5119 | What is the moral of your life? |
5119 | What letters do you refer to? |
5119 | What objection has your son to Miss Roberts? |
5119 | What rabble? |
5119 | What reasons? |
5119 | What steamers leave to- morrow for England? |
5119 | What will it give the public that it has not got already? |
5119 | What will you do? |
5119 | What''s brought you from Washington at a critical time like this? 5119 What''s that about mother dancing?" |
5119 | What''s that? |
5119 | What''s that? |
5119 | What''s the matter? |
5119 | What''s the objection to the girl? |
5119 | What? |
5119 | When do they attend lectures? |
5119 | When do they read? |
5119 | When shall we be in, captain? |
5119 | Where are the letters? |
5119 | Where are you going? |
5119 | Where is his daughter? |
5119 | Where''s father? |
5119 | Where''s your list? |
5119 | Where,he asked,"Madison Avenue?" |
5119 | Who are they? |
5119 | Who else? |
5119 | Who the devil is this Bagley? |
5119 | Who told you that? |
5119 | Who was here first? |
5119 | Who''s there? |
5119 | Who''s there? |
5119 | Who,he added,"would have the courage to marry a girl whose father was publicly disgraced?" |
5119 | Who? |
5119 | Why ca n''t you govern yourself? |
5119 | Why did you do this? |
5119 | Why do n''t you shake hands with her? |
5119 | Why do n''t you study women for a change? |
5119 | Why do you ask? 5119 Why do you want to add to the girl''s misery? |
5119 | Why not be accurate? |
5119 | Why not call me Jefferson? 5119 Why not study theology and become a preacher?" |
5119 | Why not? 5119 Why not? |
5119 | Why not? |
5119 | Why not? |
5119 | Why not? |
5119 | Why should I punish myself-- why should we punish those nearest and dearest? |
5119 | Why so sober,demanded Ryder,"you''ve gained your point, your father is to be restored to you, you''ll marry the man you love?" |
5119 | Why, Jeff, my boy, is that you? 5119 Why, Miss Rossmore, what are you doing out driving?" |
5119 | Why, is he wild? |
5119 | Why, is it you, Jeff? 5119 Why?" |
5119 | Wie geht es, meine damen? |
5119 | Will you trust me to go alone? |
5119 | With my daughter? |
5119 | Work? |
5119 | Would you sacrifice my happiness and your own? |
5119 | Yes, yes, Shir-- Miss Green, will you? |
5119 | Yes,said Kate, taking a letter from her bosom,"I wanted to ask you what this means?" |
5119 | Yet what good is your money to you? |
5119 | You are going away? |
5119 | You cabled for Shirley? |
5119 | You cabled for Shirley? |
5119 | You came to ask your father to help you? |
5119 | You do n''t think my life would make good reading? |
5119 | You expected to see Senator Roberts, did n''t you? |
5119 | You going away-- where to? |
5119 | You have work to do-- what work? |
5119 | You may be right and yet--"Am I to help you or not? |
5119 | You mean you think I want to listen to you? |
5119 | You never proposed to run away with my daughter? |
5119 | You sent for me, father? |
5119 | You sent him a copy of''The American Octopus?'' |
5119 | You wish to see me, Madame? |
5119 | You work, Shirley? 5119 You-- Miss Green?" |
5119 | You? 5119 You?" |
5119 | You? |
5119 | You? |
5119 | Your book--''The American Octopus,''is selling well? |
5119 | Your enemies? |
5119 | A man''s life at stake? |
5119 | After a silence he said:"Do you know you say the strangest things?" |
5119 | Ah, why had she spared him in her book? |
5119 | Ah, would n''t it be sublime selfishness?" |
5119 | Am I right?" |
5119 | And even if he did not how could she possibly find those letters with him watching her, and all in the brief time of a conventional afternoon call? |
5119 | And what of the future? |
5119 | And what, asks the foreigner, has the American hustler accomplished that his slower- going Continental brother has not done as well? |
5119 | And you-- you have the brazen effrontery to ask me to plead for your father? |
5119 | Are you afraid I shall love you? |
5119 | Are you afraid he will love you? |
5119 | Are you prepared to reconstruct human nature?" |
5119 | Are you willing to sacrifice your son''s future to a mere boyish whim?" |
5119 | Are you--?" |
5119 | Arranging the pillow under her head, he asked:"Is that comfortable?" |
5119 | As a gentle hint he said softly:"Did I interrupt you, Madam?" |
5119 | As to the newspapers-- when did you ever hear of them championing a man when he''s down?" |
5119 | Back from Europe, Jefferson? |
5119 | Besides, was not Mr. Ryder returning home on the same ship? |
5119 | Besides,"she added,"what right have I to object?" |
5119 | But Ryder, Sr., continued:"Do I care? |
5119 | But before he could open his mouth Mr. Ryder said:"Bagley, when did you see my son, Jefferson, last?" |
5119 | But by what strange fatality, he thought to himself, had his daughter in this book of hers assailed the very man who had encompassed his own ruin? |
5119 | But did she care for him? |
5119 | But evidently she thought better of it, for, taking a cue from Mrs. Rossmore, she asked in the sarcastic manner of her mistress:"Four is it now, M''m? |
5119 | But how about this?" |
5119 | But how could he employ her? |
5119 | But how could he tell Shirley? |
5119 | But how could they be got at? |
5119 | But how on earth did Judge Rossmore''s daughter come to be travelling in the company of John Burkett Ryder''s son? |
5119 | But is the judiciary hostile? |
5119 | But it was smart of Jefferson to have sent Ryder, Sr., the book, so she smiled graciously on his son as she asked:"How do you know he got it? |
5119 | But she could never remain angry long, and when they said good- night she whispered demurely:"Are you cross with me, Jeff?" |
5119 | But what was being done? |
5119 | But where''s the daughter now?" |
5119 | But, thought Jefferson, why should he spoil a good thing? |
5119 | By what mysterious agency had this man penetrated his own most intimate thoughts? |
5119 | CHAPTER IV"Tell me, what do the papers say?" |
5119 | Ca n''t you see,"he asked,"what a false position it places me in? |
5119 | Can you guess what it was?" |
5119 | Can you wait till I''m through? |
5119 | Come, what do you say?" |
5119 | Come, what is it?" |
5119 | Come, will you join forces with me?" |
5119 | Could Jefferson''s father have done them such a wrong as this? |
5119 | Could he be dreaming? |
5119 | Could he do so again? |
5119 | Could he dream that the Great Northwestern Mining Company and the company to which he had entrusted his few thousands were one and the same? |
5119 | Could it be that the proceedings in the Senate were ended and the result known? |
5119 | Could one have fine houses to live in, or all sorts of modern conveniences to add to one''s comfort, without money? |
5119 | Could she believe her ears? |
5119 | Could she conceal them? |
5119 | Could the book- lover buy books, the art- lover purchase pictures? |
5119 | Could the human mind grasp the possibilities of such a colossal fortune? |
5119 | Could this, she thought, explain Jefferson''s strange behaviour? |
5119 | Determined, eh? |
5119 | Did Judge Rossmore take a bribe from the Great Northwestern or did n''t he? |
5119 | Did she love him? |
5119 | Did you ever read the fable of the Lion and the Mouse? |
5119 | Did you go down to Massapequa?" |
5119 | Do n''t you think she has suffered enough?" |
5119 | Do you know a little place on Long Island called Massapequa?" |
5119 | Do you know that I practically control the Congress of the United States and that no legislative measure becomes law unless it has my approval?" |
5119 | Do you know that a man does n''t get his horse sense till he''s forty?" |
5119 | Do you know who the hero is?" |
5119 | Do you know you''re the first woman I ever took into my confidence-- I mean at sight?" |
5119 | Do you realize that my wealth is so vast that I scarcely know myself what I am worth? |
5119 | Do you suppose for one instant that I would condescend to trouble myself with your affairs?" |
5119 | Do you think I''m fool enough to suppose I can buy my way? |
5119 | Does n''t that tell you what the world thinks of your methods?" |
5119 | Does she know of this radical change in your affairs?" |
5119 | Father is going to clear his name of this preposterous charge and we''re going to help him, are n''t we, mother? |
5119 | Finally losing patience she asked him bluntly:"Jefferson, what''s the matter with you to- night? |
5119 | Five millions or competition? |
5119 | For a moment her heart stood still-- suppose the shock of this shameful accusation had killed him? |
5119 | For what?" |
5119 | General Dodge? |
5119 | Going away? |
5119 | Had Ryder any twinges of conscience? |
5119 | Had Ryder really got some plan up his sleeve after all? |
5119 | Had he come, after all? |
5119 | Had he not made a cool twenty millions by the deal? |
5119 | Had his insensate craving for gold and power led him to neglect those other things in life which contribute more truly to man''s happiness? |
5119 | Had my son been seen there?" |
5119 | Had the forces of right and justice prevailed, after all? |
5119 | Has not a President of the United States declared that the State must eventually curb the great fortunes? |
5119 | Has not the flag of socialism waved recently from the White House? |
5119 | Have you ever stopped to think of that?" |
5119 | He must be saved in the Senate, but how-- how? |
5119 | He must do something to prevent it; the marriage must not take place, but what could he do? |
5119 | He repeated:"Did n''t you hear me? |
5119 | He restrained his impatience with difficulty as he replied:"Whose side am I on? |
5119 | He whispered:"What were you thinking of me-- good or bad?" |
5119 | Her face transfigured, radiant she exclaimed breathlessly:"What, Mr. Ryder, you mean that you are going to help my father?" |
5119 | Her thoughts travelling faster than the ship, Shirley suddenly asked:"Do you really think Mr. Ryder will use his influence to help my father?" |
5119 | His business methods I consider disgraceful-- you understand that, do n''t you, Shirley?" |
5119 | How can my love of power do you an injustice?" |
5119 | How can you expect to reach Ryder? |
5119 | How could I think anything bad of you?" |
5119 | How could he fight them back, what could he do to protect himself? |
5119 | How could she become the daughter- in- law of the man who had ruined her own father? |
5119 | How dare they make him out such a monster? |
5119 | How did you come to call on father?" |
5119 | How did you do it? |
5119 | How did you guess?" |
5119 | How do you do, Senator?" |
5119 | How is Paris?" |
5119 | How is it that our road can not reach Judge Rossmore and make him presents?" |
5119 | How is the Rossmore case progressing?" |
5119 | How long would the nation tolerate being thus ruthlessly trodden under the unclean heels of an insolent oligarchy? |
5119 | How many literary reputations to- day conceal an aching heart and find it difficult to make both ends meet? |
5119 | How many millions could one man make by honest methods? |
5119 | How many of them would bear the search- light of investigation? |
5119 | How''s father?" |
5119 | I mean the one you abject to?" |
5119 | I suppose you''ve heard about her father?" |
5119 | I thought we had agreed not to discuss Judge Rossmore any further?" |
5119 | I want to ask you, Miss Green, where you got the character of your central figure-- the Octopus, as you call him-- John Broderick?" |
5119 | I--""Do you think this man deserves to be punished?" |
5119 | If I am clever enough to accumulate millions who can stop me?" |
5119 | If it was well paid, why should she not accept? |
5119 | In a coaxing tone he said:"Come, where did you get those details? |
5119 | In a voice that was unnaturally calm, he asked:"Why do n''t you produce them before the Senate?" |
5119 | In other words, was his life a mistake? |
5119 | Is it fair to my church, is it fair to my flock? |
5119 | Is it not indeed fortunate that every nation finds itself superior to its neighbour? |
5119 | Is it not so, Jefferson?" |
5119 | Is it not true that we have been singularly free from litigation until recently, and that most of the decisions were favourable to the road? |
5119 | Is it, therefore, not possible to take life easily and still achieve? |
5119 | Is n''t it still more absurd that we should be helpless and dejected and unhappy because we are on Long Island instead of Madison Avenue? |
5119 | Is n''t that better than a literary reputation?" |
5119 | Is n''t the sting of impotent failure enough to meet without striving against a hopeless love?" |
5119 | Is that not an achievement to relate to future generations?" |
5119 | Is this any of your doing?" |
5119 | It only increases my determination to see her and her--"Suddenly changing the topic he asked:"When do you leave us?" |
5119 | It''s a jolly well written book and raps you American millionaires jolly well-- what?" |
5119 | Jefferson set his jaw fast and the familiar Ryder gleam came into his eyes as he responded:"Why not? |
5119 | Judge Stott? |
5119 | Kate would make him an excellent wife, while what do we know about the other woman? |
5119 | Laying the book down and turning sharply on Shirley, he asked her bluntly:"Do you mean to say that I could n''t stop to- morrow if I wanted to?" |
5119 | May I?" |
5119 | Must I be punished because you have failed? |
5119 | My son wants to see me? |
5119 | Next?" |
5119 | Now she had them, she must not let them go again; yet how could she keep them unobserved? |
5119 | Now what about that Rossmore girl? |
5119 | Of course, why did he not think of it before? |
5119 | Oh, Massapequa is a lovely spot, is n''t it? |
5119 | Oh, father, how could you have done that? |
5119 | Oh, why had he not kept the secretary''s letter? |
5119 | Pourquoi dix francs? |
5119 | Putting her broom aside and placing her arms akimbo she exclaimed in an injured tone:"And it''s a dayther you''ve got now? |
5119 | Ryder ignored the insinuation and proceeded:"What of our boasted free institutions if a man is to be restricted in what he may and may not do? |
5119 | Ryder leaned eagerly forward as he asked her searchingly:"Now who told you that I had my arm tattooed when I was a boy?" |
5119 | Ryder took up the receiver and spoke to the butler downstairs:"Who''s that? |
5119 | Ryder, who had seen nothing of this by- play, said with a sneer:"Surely you did n''t come here to- night to tell me this?" |
5119 | Ryder?" |
5119 | Ryder?" |
5119 | See?" |
5119 | Sergeant Ellison? |
5119 | Shall I make your god my god? |
5119 | She had a sacred duty to perform, it was true; but would it be less well done because she declined to stifle the natural leanings of her womanhood? |
5119 | Shirley''s pulse throbbed faster, but she tried hard to appear unconcerned as she answered:"Oh, my book-- have you read it?" |
5119 | So he rushes from the cradle to the grave, and what''s the good, since he must one day die like all the rest? |
5119 | So it''s her you want to go to, eh? |
5119 | So, in better French than was at Jefferson''s command, she exclaimed:"Ten francs? |
5119 | Suddenly Stott, who was perusing an evening paper, asked:"By the way, where''s your daughter? |
5119 | Suddenly he asked her:"Have you heard from home recently?" |
5119 | Suppose he knew her by sight and roughly accused her of obtaining access to his house under false pretences and then had her ejected by the servants? |
5119 | Tell me, do you think he deserves such a fate?" |
5119 | Tell me,"he added, appealing to her,"why ca n''t I rule my own household, why ca n''t I govern my own child?" |
5119 | That Miss Rossmore was there, was she not?" |
5119 | That''s what you want to avoid, is n''t it?" |
5119 | The financier smiled grimly as he answered:"Your family in general-- me in particular, eh? |
5119 | The financier swung half- round in his chair, the smile of greeting faded out of his face, and his voice was hard as he replied coldly:"Again? |
5119 | The great financier was certainly able to do anything he chose, and had not his son Jefferson promised to win him over to their cause? |
5119 | The man took the letters and disappeared, while Jefferson, impatient, repeated his question:"My doing?" |
5119 | The press--"Mr. Grimsby''s red face grew more apoplectic as he blurted out:"Public opinion and the press be d--- d. Who cares for public opinion? |
5119 | The rumours were true, then? |
5119 | Then addressing Shirley direct he said:"And you, fraulein, I hope you wo n''t be glad the voyage is over?" |
5119 | Then he stopped as if he had changed his mind and turning towards his son he demanded:"Do you mean to say that she has done with you?" |
5119 | Then interrupting himself he said amiably:"Wo n''t you do me the honour to meet my family?" |
5119 | Then quickly she asked:"But what does it matter? |
5119 | Then seriously, she added:"Jeff, why should we act like children? |
5119 | Then she added quickly:"I wonder if your father has seen it?" |
5119 | Then she added:"He''s the father of the girl you do n''t like, is n''t he?" |
5119 | Then turning again to his secretary he asked:"Well, Bagley, what is it?" |
5119 | Then turning on Mrs. Rossmore so suddenly that the poor woman nearly jumped out of her chair he asked:"Do you like strawberries?" |
5119 | Then why raise this barrier between us?" |
5119 | Then, abruptly, she asked:"Do your parents live in New York?" |
5119 | Then, who could tell? |
5119 | There is nothing in the Constitution of the United States that says we ca n''t have a daughter without consulting our help, is there?" |
5119 | There was only one way out-- would Stott go? |
5119 | These reflections were suddenly interrupted by the voice of Mrs. Blake calling out:"Shirley, where have you been? |
5119 | This time there''s a woman in the case-- and I need your woman''s wit--""How can I help you?" |
5119 | Turning again to his son, he went on:"Do you see this book? |
5119 | Turning to his sister, who was sitting in her corner like a petrified mummy, he added:"Jane, do you hear? |
5119 | Was he himself to blame? |
5119 | Was he not familiar with every possible phase of the game? |
5119 | Was he willing? |
5119 | Was he? |
5119 | Was it possible that the dreaded Colossus had capitulated and that she had saved her father? |
5119 | Was it possible? |
5119 | Was it possible? |
5119 | Was life worth living without money? |
5119 | Was not this a prize any man might well set himself out to win? |
5119 | Was she serious or merely jesting? |
5119 | Was that not just what she had to offer? |
5119 | Was this love? |
5119 | We have deceived your father, but he will forgive that, wo n''t you?" |
5119 | We intended to run away, did n''t we Fitz?" |
5119 | We never knew how much till to- day, did we? |
5119 | We shall be able to live for ourselves now, eh, father?" |
5119 | We turn after a man in the street and ask, Who is he? |
5119 | Well, do you know what I am going to do?" |
5119 | Well, what are we going to do about this injunction? |
5119 | Well, why not? |
5119 | Were her father''s among them? |
5119 | Were things so bad then? |
5119 | What account will you be able to give?" |
5119 | What are these rumours regarding Judge Rossmore? |
5119 | What are they hiding? |
5119 | What can I do now? |
5119 | What could be done? |
5119 | What could be the meaning of it? |
5119 | What could the Colossus do now to save the situation? |
5119 | What could the girl mean? |
5119 | What could these preposterous and abominable charges mean? |
5119 | What do I care for the world''s respect when my money makes the world my slave? |
5119 | What do you say?" |
5119 | What do you think of him as a type, how would you classify him?" |
5119 | What had Judge Rossmore done, after all, to deserve the frightful punishment the amalgamated interests had caused him to suffer? |
5119 | What have you done?" |
5119 | What is it to be? |
5119 | What is it, boy?" |
5119 | What is it?" |
5119 | What is it?" |
5119 | What is public opinion, anyhow? |
5119 | What is that but socialism?" |
5119 | What is your interest in this matter?" |
5119 | What kind of a woman could she be, this Shirley Green, to dare cross swords with a man whose power was felt in two hemispheres? |
5119 | What of the remedy? |
5119 | What respect can I have for a people that cringe before money and let it rule them? |
5119 | What right had this woman, a stranger both to Judge Rossmore and himself, to come here and catechise him? |
5119 | What singular, mysterious power had this girl acquired over him? |
5119 | What stages still to come, who knows? |
5119 | What strong man had not? |
5119 | What was the country coming to? |
5119 | What was the sense of slaving all one''s life, piling up a mass of money one can not possibly spend, when there is only one life to live? |
5119 | What was the world coming to when a son could talk to his father in this manner? |
5119 | What was this lie they had invented to ruin her father? |
5119 | What was to be done to save her father from this impeachment which she knew well would hurry him to his grave? |
5119 | What would his daughter say-- his Shirley? |
5119 | What would their future be, how could that proud, sensitive man her father bear this humiliation, this disgrace? |
5119 | What''s that to do with me? |
5119 | What''s that? |
5119 | What''s that? |
5119 | What''s that? |
5119 | What''s that? |
5119 | What, thought Jefferson, would be the outcome-- Socialism or Anarchy? |
5119 | When is father going to find that fellow out?" |
5119 | When they reached the street the senator inquired in a low tone:"Do you think they really believed Rossmore was influenced in his decision?" |
5119 | Where had she gone, what was this mysterious work of which she had spoken? |
5119 | Where have you children been all afternoon?" |
5119 | Where is Jefferson?" |
5119 | Where is he?" |
5119 | Where is she to- day? |
5119 | Where will you be then?" |
5119 | Where would it end? |
5119 | Who are they? |
5119 | Who else should it be?" |
5119 | Who is this unknown friend?" |
5119 | Who was this woman who knew him so well, who could read his inmost thoughts, who never made a mistake? |
5119 | Who were these strangers that intruded on her privacy offering a consolation she did not want? |
5119 | Why are you ashamed to let him see it? |
5119 | Why had he not come? |
5119 | Why had she attacked him so bitterly? |
5119 | Why had she not told her father at once? |
5119 | Why not ask your father?" |
5119 | Why not now? |
5119 | Why not? |
5119 | Why should Manhattan Island be a happier spot than Long Island? |
5119 | Why should he not be able to put a stop to these preposterous proceedings? |
5119 | Why should he? |
5119 | Why, after all, should she not know happiness like other women? |
5119 | Why? |
5119 | Will you please have a cab here in half an hour?" |
5119 | Will you take it?" |
5119 | Will you?" |
5119 | With a slight tinge of sarcasm he asked:"Is there any man in our public life who is unapproachable from some direction or other?" |
5119 | Would he come to Massapequa? |
5119 | Would he go? |
5119 | Would he miss them? |
5119 | Would he take her? |
5119 | Would his own father? |
5119 | Would it be womanly or honourable on my part to encourage you, unless I felt I reciprocated your feelings? |
5119 | Would n''t he do that much to help a friend?" |
5119 | Would n''t you help him then?" |
5119 | Would she undertake it? |
5119 | Would you?" |
5119 | Yes or No?" |
5119 | Yet what could he do? |
5119 | Yet why not? |
5119 | Yet, she reflected quickly, how could she prevent it? |
5119 | You are going to jilt the girl?" |
5119 | You are going to welsh on your word? |
5119 | You do n''t expect a man to cut loose his own kite, do you?" |
5119 | You know what''s going to happen to him, do n''t you?" |
5119 | You must n''t mind what Mr. Ryder says? |
5119 | You see yourself how impossible a marriage with Miss Rossmore would be, do n''t you?" |
5119 | You understand?" |
5119 | You?" |
5119 | and above that three more--""No,"smiled the judge,"then comes the roof?" |
5119 | asked the senator,"that you were about to marry this man secretly?" |
5119 | burst in Jefferson,"why should she? |
5119 | exclaimed Ryder, Sr."Marriage with someone else?" |
5119 | exclaimed Ryder,"acknowledge to my son that I was in the wrong, that I''ve seen the error of my ways and wish to repent? |
5119 | exclaimed Shirley, changing colour,"you believe that John Burkett Ryder is at the bottom of this infamous accusation against father?" |
5119 | exclaimed her husband,"you have consulted Miss Green on the subject?" |
5119 | he said,"you deliberately sacrificed my interests to save this woman''s father-- you hear him, Miss Green? |
5119 | how are you?" |
5119 | she said, appealing to Ryder,"and you will go to Washington, you will save my father''s honour, his life, you will--?" |
40835 | ''E would''na see me-- eh? |
40835 | A fact which is-- well-- rather curious-- shall we designate it? |
40835 | A journey? 40835 A moment ago you were about to tell me something, Marion,"he said, fixing his gaze upon hers;"what is it?" |
40835 | A person I know? |
40835 | A witness-- of what? |
40835 | About the projected strike-- eh? 40835 Absent a month?" |
40835 | Afraid of what? |
40835 | After what? |
40835 | All bows and smiles, like the average Frenchman-- eh? 40835 An old friend of yours, I suppose?" |
40835 | An''he''s seen you-- eh? |
40835 | An''starve the poor bairns-- eh? |
40835 | An''what''s that? |
40835 | And Maud never met the old fellow? |
40835 | And Maud-- what of her? |
40835 | And Max-- I mean Mr Barclay-- will make a large sum? |
40835 | And after that? |
40835 | And are they in the habit of discharging assistants in this manner-- throwing them out of a home and out of employment at a moment''s notice? 40835 And because it concerns her personally, you refuse to divulge it?" |
40835 | And did he see you? |
40835 | And for that reason, I suppose, is living incognito? |
40835 | And go shares? |
40835 | And hardly surprising, in view of past events, eh? |
40835 | And has it not struck you then that he and the Doctor might be acquainted? |
40835 | And has this serious allegation which Adams intends to bring any connection with the mystery concerning the mansion? |
40835 | And have n''t you seen Maud since? |
40835 | And have you discovered nothing regarding Petrovitch? |
40835 | And he has not taken any steps in self- defence? |
40835 | And he has promised you marriage? 40835 And he''s seen you-- eh?" |
40835 | And how did you first know of Maud''s disappearance? |
40835 | And how long can I have to decide? |
40835 | And how much have we gained over the Pekin business, Ben? |
40835 | And if I do this will you assist me to obtain knowledge of the reason why Marion Rolfe has been dismissed? |
40835 | And if he does not? 40835 And if he is dead?" |
40835 | And if it is more than twelve? |
40835 | And if that is so? |
40835 | And in what direction does it trend? |
40835 | And lose the chance of a lifetime-- eh? |
40835 | And may I not know his name? |
40835 | And she accepted? |
40835 | And she meets him after business hours? |
40835 | And so you have a lover in secret-- eh? |
40835 | And so you met her at dusk in the quiet streets about Nevern Square and the adjacent thoroughfares? |
40835 | And the aristocratic- looking foreigner? 40835 And the lover?" |
40835 | And the money which she returned was given her in order, to induce her to divulge? |
40835 | And then he suddenly turned up again-- eh? |
40835 | And then? |
40835 | And they think me eccentric-- eh? |
40835 | And to everybody except my sister, if she calls, you do n''t know where I''ve gone-- you understand? |
40835 | And well? |
40835 | And were both victims of the plot? |
40835 | And what about the French people? |
40835 | And what are they? 40835 And what are we to do?" |
40835 | And what did he say? |
40835 | And what did you reply? |
40835 | And what do you know of him? |
40835 | And what is it? |
40835 | And what is that? |
40835 | And what then, dearest? |
40835 | And what then? |
40835 | And what was that? |
40835 | And what you told me in the City you are prepared to stand by? |
40835 | And what''s your theory? |
40835 | And where are those proofs now? |
40835 | And where did you leave Maud? |
40835 | And where is Charlie? |
40835 | And where is the young lady? |
40835 | And which we-- you and I, Max-- are going to assist-- eh? |
40835 | And who is he, pray? |
40835 | And who was he? |
40835 | And who''s the man? |
40835 | And why, pray, has your opinion changed? |
40835 | And yet he is n''t a very old man, is he? |
40835 | And yet, though you are friends no longer, you are in favour of your brother''s marriage with the lady? 40835 And you anticipate that what Maud told you had some connection with their sudden disappearance?" |
40835 | And you are in search of her? 40835 And you can tell us nothing more? |
40835 | And you declare yourself as ignorant as I am myself of their whereabouts? |
40835 | And you do not know, then, if she has not met with foul play? |
40835 | And you have no foundation of fact for it? |
40835 | And you have not seen her? |
40835 | And you know there has not been a tragedy? |
40835 | And you probably know something of his affairs? |
40835 | And you were there also, then? |
40835 | And you will not seek to inquire the reason of a request I may make to you, even though it may sound an extraordinary and perhaps mysterious one? |
40835 | And you will not tell me the name of Adams''s associate in the matter? |
40835 | And you will reveal them to me? |
40835 | And you wish me to tell him all this? |
40835 | And you yourself? |
40835 | And you''ll be left all alone? |
40835 | And you''ve never seen him since? |
40835 | And, further, that confirmation of the charge brought by Adam will be found beyond that locked door? |
40835 | And, in return, how have I been served? |
40835 | Are n''t you rather hard on my sex, Max? |
40835 | Are you aware of having done anything to offend him? |
40835 | Are you certain that he has become Adams''friend? |
40835 | Are you quite certain of this? |
40835 | Are you serious, Levi? |
40835 | Are you sure? 40835 Ask yourself?" |
40835 | At Aix- les- Bains,Statham exclaimed in surprise:"I thought Doctor Petrovitch lived in London?" |
40835 | At risk of our lives-- eh? |
40835 | Avoid me-- why? |
40835 | Based upon what Maud told you-- eh? |
40835 | Beside the lady to whom you are so devoted, eh? |
40835 | Both men stand very high in the financial world, do they not? |
40835 | But Adam-- do you happen to know him? |
40835 | But Maud? 40835 But Miss Rolfe knows it, of course?" |
40835 | But a moment ago you said you had a clue? |
40835 | But are we not lovers, Marion? |
40835 | But are you aware that this concession, if the Sultan really gives it, is of the greatest importance to the commercial development of the Near East? 40835 But can not we join forces in endeavouring to solve the problem?" |
40835 | But can not you be more explicit? |
40835 | But can you, without injury to yourself, tell me who is your associate in this business? |
40835 | But did n''t they quarrel a short time ago? |
40835 | But did you actually see him dead? |
40835 | But have you offended the Doctor? |
40835 | But he''s away in Servia, is he not? 40835 But how can Adams profit? |
40835 | But how do you account for your vans-- two pantechnicons and a covered van-- being there? |
40835 | But how? |
40835 | But if the Doctor is really still alive, what have you to fear? |
40835 | But is there no way of proving the truth? |
40835 | But is your business of such a very private character? |
40835 | But she was sent away? |
40835 | But suppose the truth was really known!--suppose it were discovered? 40835 But tell me straight out-- what do you wish me to do?" |
40835 | But tell me, Rolfe is an intimate friend of yours, is he not? |
40835 | But the whole affair is so extraordinary? |
40835 | But was it not through you that Marion, without previous experience or apprenticeship, was engaged there? |
40835 | But we can get an option, I suppose? |
40835 | But what form is this revenge of yours to take? |
40835 | But when you parted from her that night, did you believe that you would not meet her again? |
40835 | But where are they-- where can they be? 40835 But who is this man Leonard Lyle?" |
40835 | But why are you so anxious, Max? |
40835 | But why are you so inquisitive-- eh? |
40835 | But why are you worried about Maud, old fellow? |
40835 | But why does he want me to go post- haste out to Turkey? |
40835 | But why does n''t the Doctor send me word of his own safety? |
40835 | But why have you kept away from me till to- day? |
40835 | But why is it hoped that he will prefer to take his life rather than face any exposure? |
40835 | But why need I anticipate failure? 40835 But why? |
40835 | But why? |
40835 | But why? |
40835 | But why? |
40835 | But will not the reflection be seen by Levi from below? |
40835 | But will you not ask him? |
40835 | But you do n''t seem in the least alarmed about her disappearance? |
40835 | But you do n''t think that the Doctor has been the victim of an assassin, do you? |
40835 | But you have quarrelled with Maud? |
40835 | But you have your ain circle of good friends here, I suppose? |
40835 | But you''d have lost very heavily, would n''t you? |
40835 | But you''ve just declared that a falsehood was permissible where a woman''s honour was concerned? |
40835 | But, my dear fellow she loved you, did she not? 40835 But,"Rolfe argued,"for the sake of my sister''s good name you will surely do me this one small favour?" |
40835 | But-- well, in the circumstances, do n''t you scent danger-- a very grave danger? |
40835 | But--"But what? |
40835 | But--"But what? |
40835 | By what? |
40835 | Ca n''t you get Marion to tell you? |
40835 | Can I see him? |
40835 | Can you furnish me with it? |
40835 | Connected with Maud Petrovitch? |
40835 | Could they not be purchased now? 40835 Crime-- what crime?" |
40835 | Did Maud tell you anything about her future movements last night-- or mention her father''s intentions? |
40835 | Did he speak to ye? |
40835 | Did he tell you to- day where he was going? |
40835 | Did n''t Maud ever tell you? |
40835 | Did n''t she tall you her name? |
40835 | Did n''t the washer take note of the number of the cab? |
40835 | Did she apprehend something? |
40835 | Did she ever tell you that the Doctor had suddenly entertained a dislike of you? |
40835 | Did she say nothing which would throw any light upon their sadden disappearance? |
40835 | Did what she tell you in any way concern the Doctor? |
40835 | Did you ever see Petkoff, for instance? |
40835 | Did you see any servant when you were there this evening? |
40835 | Did you see anyone, Levi? |
40835 | Did you see our vans there yourself? |
40835 | Did? 40835 Disengaged?" |
40835 | Do I really understand you that Mr Statham invited you to his house? |
40835 | Do n''t I tell you he shall not die? |
40835 | Do n''t ask me why? 40835 Do n''t you like Rolfe-- or what?" |
40835 | Do you know Adam personally? |
40835 | Do you mean Leonard Lyle? 40835 Do you object to Rolfe paying his attentions to your daughter?" |
40835 | Do you suspect some-- some tragedy, then? |
40835 | Do you think that thieves did the work? |
40835 | Do? 40835 Does Charlie know? |
40835 | Does he come often? |
40835 | Does he know Statham? |
40835 | Does he really mean mischief? |
40835 | Does she know that you are aware of the meetings? |
40835 | Eh? 40835 Eh? |
40835 | Engineer? 40835 Evasive?" |
40835 | Even at the expense of your friend''s happiness? |
40835 | Even to you-- his confidential secretary? |
40835 | For how long? |
40835 | For the purposes of blackmail-- eh? |
40835 | For what reason? |
40835 | For what? |
40835 | For what? |
40835 | Foul play? |
40835 | Had you any suspicion that father and daughter intended to suddenly disappear? |
40835 | Has Charlie seen Maud of late? |
40835 | Has she sent you no secret message of her safety? |
40835 | Have I not already told you of the promise I gave her? 40835 Have I not already told you? |
40835 | Have I not even to- night been your friend? |
40835 | Have I not warned you against the man who is Max Barclay''s secret enemy-- and yours-- the man Jean Adam? |
40835 | Have I your permission to glance at them? |
40835 | Have a cigarette? |
40835 | Have you been over it? 40835 Have you been to his house in Park Lane lately?" |
40835 | Have you had dealings with him? |
40835 | Have you put any money into the scheme? |
40835 | Have you seen Mr Barclay to- day? |
40835 | Have you told the police that? |
40835 | Have you written to Maud? |
40835 | He had no suspicion of whom you really are? |
40835 | He talks of me sometimes, I suppose? |
40835 | He''s still outside, I suppose? |
40835 | His enemies in the Skuptchina, you mean? |
40835 | How can I be the enemy of Marion''s brother? 40835 How can I be witness against you if you are innocent of any connection with the affair?" |
40835 | How can I tell? |
40835 | How can her love for me affect her father''s political opponents in Servia? |
40835 | How can you prevent him escaping you by suicide? |
40835 | How did we first hear of the business? |
40835 | How do you know that? |
40835 | How is it you know so much of Servia? |
40835 | How much? 40835 How well do you know him?" |
40835 | How? 40835 How? |
40835 | How? 40835 How? |
40835 | How? |
40835 | How? |
40835 | How? |
40835 | I do n''t deny it? |
40835 | I do-- but I--"But what? |
40835 | I fear there''s been foul play? |
40835 | I hope not, yet--"Why do you hesitate, Marion, to tell me all you know? |
40835 | I hope the car I sent came for you as arranged? |
40835 | I know, but--"But what? |
40835 | I love you; surely you believe that? |
40835 | I mean that you received letters from him? |
40835 | I thought you wished to warn Mr Statham? |
40835 | I wonder if I could possibly get at the truth through Marion? |
40835 | I wonder if I shall ever see it again? 40835 I wonder if it''s been done by professional removers, or by amateurs?" |
40835 | I wonder if the Doctor and his daughter have returned to their own country? |
40835 | I wonder what the old blackguard has said? |
40835 | I wonder,he said aloud, at last,"I wonder if Max ever dreams the extraordinary truth? |
40835 | In London? |
40835 | In what way? |
40835 | Intentions of what? |
40835 | Is Mr Statham''s secretary an unimportant man? |
40835 | Is he alive? 40835 Is he really?" |
40835 | Is he such a bad man, then? |
40835 | Is it no matter that I see you, Charlie? 40835 Is it not rather foolish in your own interests? |
40835 | Is it safe yet to show a light? |
40835 | Is it somebody who has disappeared? |
40835 | Is n''t he all that he pretends to be? |
40835 | Is n''t this a rather amusing meeting? |
40835 | Is that you, Merrick? |
40835 | Is that your opinion? |
40835 | Is there any real dissatisfaction in the works? |
40835 | Is there no way out of this? |
40835 | It almost looks as though it were the work of thieves? |
40835 | It is not often you speak the truth, Mr Statham, is it? |
40835 | It was whispered, Rolfe, that you were in love with the pretty Maud-- eh? |
40835 | It''s curious, to say the least, is n''t it? |
40835 | Jean Adam-- a friend of Max Barclay? |
40835 | Killed? |
40835 | Left-- left Cunnington''s? |
40835 | Leonard Lyle-- a hunchback? |
40835 | Let me see, the concession is somewhere in the Balkans, is n''t it? |
40835 | Levi,exclaimed Statham after a few moments of silence,"is it not absurd for us to chatter here, in the darkness? |
40835 | Lives there in preference to an hotel because he can go in and out shabby and down- at- heel without attracting comment-- eh? |
40835 | Lorena-- why, it must have been Lorena Lyle-- old Lyle''s daughter? |
40835 | Lost? 40835 Lyle here-- in London?" |
40835 | Maud Petrovitch has never written to you? |
40835 | My dear Marion, of what are you apprehensive? |
40835 | My guilt? |
40835 | No; but I may surely know the reason she has left your service? |
40835 | No? |
40835 | Nor about any new patent? |
40835 | Of a plot against him? |
40835 | Of business? 40835 Of the thousand employees I possess, is there a man among them honest? |
40835 | Of what crime am I guilty? |
40835 | Of what? |
40835 | Of what? |
40835 | Of what? |
40835 | Of what? |
40835 | Oh, so he has approached you, also, has he? 40835 Oh, what''s its nature?" |
40835 | On your first visit, then, the safe was hidden? |
40835 | Only surmise? |
40835 | Or you would not have come, eh? |
40835 | Parker, has Mr Statham been on the''phone this morning? |
40835 | Perhaps he thinks you will plank down money? |
40835 | Petrovitch? 40835 Political?" |
40835 | Rather late, is n''t it? |
40835 | Rather undesirable company-- eh-- Ben? |
40835 | Recently? |
40835 | Recently? |
40835 | Regarding her father, I suppose? |
40835 | Sent away in disgrace, and I intend to discover what charge there is against her-- and the truth concerning it? |
40835 | Serious? 40835 Set about by those with whom he has refused to associate-- eh?" |
40835 | She was a short, dark- haired girl, rather good- looking, except that her top teeth protruded a little; about nineteen or so-- eh? |
40835 | So you have been recently in London? |
40835 | So you saw him dead-- eh? |
40835 | Suppose he died? |
40835 | Suppose you were seen by anyone who knows her? 40835 Surely he would be only too delighted to be able to thank you for your warning?" |
40835 | Surely when you know all that it means to me, you will not refuse? |
40835 | That means that we preserve the secret indefinitely? |
40835 | That was last night-- eh? |
40835 | The tragic story? |
40835 | The woman? |
40835 | Then I am to take it that it was not you I saw at Cromwell Road, Charlie? |
40835 | Then he does n''t know? |
40835 | Then he has it by now? |
40835 | Then he is in hiding-- eh? |
40835 | Then he is still unknown? |
40835 | Then he may have left at nine o''clock this morning? |
40835 | Then he''s an adventurer? |
40835 | Then how are you so very positive that he died? |
40835 | Then is n''t it genuine? |
40835 | Then it is not concerning the works that you want to see Mr Statham? |
40835 | Then it was all your own doing? |
40835 | Then it''s a matter which you do not wish to discuss with me? |
40835 | Then much depends upon the Doctor''s death? |
40835 | Then private vengeance was the cause? |
40835 | Then she anticipated something-- eh? |
40835 | Then she is alive? |
40835 | Then she is here? |
40835 | Then she''s been discharged-- eh? |
40835 | Then they are associated against you, you believe? |
40835 | Then they are fugitives, I take it? |
40835 | Then they''ve been stored at Chiswick, eh? |
40835 | Then why fear for my personal safety? |
40835 | Then why is he pressing me to go out to Constantinople? |
40835 | Then why make a secret about your visit to the house on that particular evening? |
40835 | Then why not come? |
40835 | Then why not go to them? |
40835 | Then you actually know who threw the explosive? |
40835 | Then you admit that what you have just told me is not the truth? |
40835 | Then you are a friend of Maud? |
40835 | Then you are unaware of her whereabouts? |
40835 | Then you believe that the whole thing is a fiction? |
40835 | Then you deny having been at the house that evening? |
40835 | Then you do n''t anticipate foul play? |
40835 | Then you do not believe there has been a tragedy? |
40835 | Then you had a reason for not going to Servia? |
40835 | Then you have been the victim of a liar? |
40835 | Then you have no idea where I could find the Doctor? |
40835 | Then you have satisfied yourself that what I told you is correct? |
40835 | Then you know the charge it is intended to bring against him-- eh? |
40835 | Then you really can not obtain for me the information I desire? |
40835 | Then you refuse to accept Mr Statham''s offer to you? |
40835 | Then you think that some political undercurrent is responsible for this disappearance? |
40835 | Then you think they''ve anticipated this, and killed him in secret? |
40835 | Then you took an oath not to repeat what she told you? |
40835 | Then you will set to work to discover what is known among the Opposition? |
40835 | Then you''ll go to- night? |
40835 | Then you-- you are leaving me? |
40835 | Then your suggestion is that I should go and tell him openly my intentions? |
40835 | Theory? 40835 There was n''t a bill of sale, or something of that sort, I suppose?" |
40835 | Things that would be detrimental to you? |
40835 | Think so? |
40835 | This is indeed strange? |
40835 | To interrupt pure friendship? |
40835 | To me it seems outrageous, incomprehensible-- and yet--"Well? |
40835 | To me? |
40835 | To what, pray, do I owe this intrusion? |
40835 | To whom? |
40835 | Towards whom? |
40835 | Was the confession made to you by the Doctor''s daughter of such a private nature that you really can not divulge it to me? |
40835 | We must follow her? |
40835 | Weel? |
40835 | Well the natural suggestion is that the body of the midnight visitor was within that box? |
40835 | Well, and will not every man with a sense of honour towards a woman hold the same opinion? 40835 Well, what are people saying now?" |
40835 | Well, what do you suggest? |
40835 | Well, why should I? |
40835 | Well,he asked, with a sigh, as he stretched himself before he seated himself in the proffered chair,"what has happened?" |
40835 | Well,he said,"old Statham has financial interests in Servia, has he not?" |
40835 | Well-- how can I conjecture otherwise? 40835 Well-- how shall I put it, Miss Rolfe?" |
40835 | Well-- shall I be frank? |
40835 | Well? |
40835 | Well? |
40835 | Well? |
40835 | Well? |
40835 | Well? |
40835 | Well? |
40835 | Well? |
40835 | Well? |
40835 | What about Rolfe? |
40835 | What about her? |
40835 | What are we to do in the meantime? |
40835 | What are you doing here when I ordered you to retire? |
40835 | What can it all mean? |
40835 | What can it be? |
40835 | What can this possibly mean? |
40835 | What can we do? 40835 What causes you to believe this?" |
40835 | What did he say about me? |
40835 | What do you anticipate? |
40835 | What do you fear? |
40835 | What do you mean by the woman who loves me? |
40835 | What do you mean-- what do you suggest? |
40835 | What do you mean? 40835 What do you mean?" |
40835 | What do you mean? |
40835 | What do you mean? |
40835 | What do you mean? |
40835 | What do you mean? |
40835 | What do you, in the light of this secret knowledge, suspect? |
40835 | What has she told you? |
40835 | What have you discovered? 40835 What have you discovered?" |
40835 | What is a woman''s honour as compared with your future? 40835 What is his exact position?" |
40835 | What is his name? 40835 What is it?" |
40835 | What is one of them? 40835 What is that?" |
40835 | What is that? |
40835 | What is the use? 40835 What makes you suspect that?" |
40835 | What makes you think so? |
40835 | What matters, my own, if I am away? |
40835 | What nature is the business? |
40835 | What satisfaction should I have were he to commit suicide? 40835 What shall I tell him? |
40835 | What shall you do? |
40835 | What stories have you heard? |
40835 | What suspicion can he have? |
40835 | What would be my future-- what will it be when my enemies, like a pack of wolves, fall upon me and tear me limb from limb? 40835 What''s his name?" |
40835 | What-- in Heaven''s name-- is the meaning of this? |
40835 | What-- run away? 40835 What-- the man Adams?" |
40835 | What? 40835 What? |
40835 | What? |
40835 | What? |
40835 | What? |
40835 | When did she ask you? |
40835 | When do you anticipate you could go East-- that is, providing I can get the matter postponed? |
40835 | When do you expect the visit? |
40835 | When do you propose starting for Constantinople? |
40835 | When will Rolfe return? |
40835 | When? |
40835 | When? |
40835 | Where does old Levi sleep? |
40835 | Where does old Sam sleep? |
40835 | Where is he now? 40835 Where is he now?" |
40835 | Where is he? |
40835 | Where is my sister? |
40835 | Where is she? 40835 Where is she?" |
40835 | Who are you, Miss Lorena, that you should make these direct allegations against me? |
40835 | Who is Max Barclay? |
40835 | Who is the assassin-- the murderer of children? |
40835 | Who knows? 40835 Who''s coming?" |
40835 | Who? 40835 Why are you going there?" |
40835 | Why did n''t you tell me all this before? |
40835 | Why did n''t you tell me this before? 40835 Why did you lose the train last night, Rolfe?" |
40835 | Why do you ask that? |
40835 | Why do you wish to conceal the fact, Miss Lorena? |
40835 | Why have you brought me here, Miss Lorena? |
40835 | Why have you refused my invitation so many times? 40835 Why have you so suddenly changed towards me, Marion? |
40835 | Why impossible? |
40835 | Why is she here? 40835 Why need he trouble?" |
40835 | Why not now? 40835 Why not, Miss Lorena? |
40835 | Why not? |
40835 | Why not? |
40835 | Why should I be? 40835 Why should I?" |
40835 | Why should one? |
40835 | Why should they impersonate you? |
40835 | Why too late? |
40835 | Why, do n''t you see? |
40835 | Why, for me? |
40835 | Why, mon, is n''t it as plain as plain can be? 40835 Why, of course, it is in your power to speak, if you wish?" |
40835 | Why, what''s the matter? |
40835 | Why? 40835 Why?" |
40835 | Why? |
40835 | Why? |
40835 | Why? |
40835 | Why? |
40835 | Why? |
40835 | Why? |
40835 | Why? |
40835 | Why? |
40835 | Why? |
40835 | Why? |
40835 | Why? |
40835 | Why? |
40835 | Why? |
40835 | Why? |
40835 | Why? |
40835 | Why? |
40835 | Will my information assist you in any way, Mr Statham? |
40835 | Will you write it? 40835 Win?" |
40835 | With what object, I wonder, is all this? |
40835 | With you? |
40835 | With you?--to Constantinople? |
40835 | Yes; but if he keeps me, how can he keep a wife as well? |
40835 | Yes; he could tell sufficient to cause Statham Brothers to close their doors-- eh? |
40835 | Yes; why? |
40835 | Yet where can I go? 40835 Yet would he not have sent word to me in secret?" |
40835 | You are a partisan of the Karageorgevitch? |
40835 | You believe that the same motive has led to the Doctor''s disappearance as was the cause of the bomb outrage at Topschieder? |
40835 | You do n''t deny that you love young Barclay, do you? |
40835 | You do n''t think I''d give you away, do you? 40835 You do not blame me?" |
40835 | You have promised to save me; you have sworn to assist me, and the sacrifice is imperative? |
40835 | You have promised your help, and also complete secrecy, have you not? |
40835 | You have something to say to me-- is not that so? |
40835 | You knew nothing of him prior to that? |
40835 | You know her? 40835 You know what she told her?" |
40835 | You live in Paris? |
40835 | You love her-- eh? |
40835 | You mean I''m too suspicious-- eh? 40835 You mean regarding the foreigner of last night?" |
40835 | You mean that I should put twelve thousand into it? |
40835 | You mean that they may have quarrelled? |
40835 | You mean that we may find it necessary to secure Max Barclay''s aid at sacrifice of the girl-- eh? |
40835 | You mean that you refuse to tell me anything concerning my sister? |
40835 | You mean you refuse to tell me? |
40835 | You saw them together after you had told me of Adams''return, or before? |
40835 | You seem to be in their confidence, Miss Lorena? |
40835 | You seem to know Servia and the complication of Servian politics, mademoiselle? |
40835 | You spoke because I was Mr Statham''s secretary? |
40835 | You think me mad-- eh? 40835 You were engaged to her-- eh? |
40835 | You wish to speak to me-- eh? |
40835 | You''ve inquired about that girl, I suppose? |
40835 | You''ve seen him, and you know him? |
40835 | You''ve spoken to this man Lyle? |
40835 | You''ve-- you''ve found it-- eh? |
40835 | You, her brother, can surely obtain the truth from her? |
40835 | Your informants believe, perhaps, that it would not interest you? |
40835 | A confession of a woman''s weakness-- eh?" |
40835 | A friend of your brother''s, eh? |
40835 | Again, suppose I got safely to Greece, what about the firm''s credit? |
40835 | Alighting at the house, he presented his card to old Levi, who opened the door, and asked the favour of a few moments''conversation with Mr Statham? |
40835 | And as for my friends, is there one I can trust-- except Ben and yourself, of course?" |
40835 | And have n''t you endeavoured to find out her whereabouts?" |
40835 | And if he loved her so well, was it possible that he could have been author of, or implicated, in a foul and secret crime? |
40835 | And now? |
40835 | And so he was the Doctor''s friend?" |
40835 | And was it surprising when it was considered the power of Samuel Statham and the means at his command for the preservation of a secret? |
40835 | And what does she say?" |
40835 | And what reason is given for that?" |
40835 | And why? |
40835 | And why? |
40835 | And, after all, who can blame him? |
40835 | And-- and--""And what?" |
40835 | Are you quite sure of this?" |
40835 | Are you quite sure they are dead?" |
40835 | Are you still of that opinion?" |
40835 | At last he asked:"Can not you tell me something of the past relations between Adams and Statham? |
40835 | Ay, where was she? |
40835 | Been reading novels, perhaps-- eh? |
40835 | Besides, my dear chap, why should I go there when I had been particularly asked by Maud not to visit the house?" |
40835 | But do you think Rolfe would be guilty of such a thing?" |
40835 | But how could she? |
40835 | But how could she? |
40835 | But how shall we begin? |
40835 | But in what?" |
40835 | But is it wise to turn one''s back upon Fortune in this way?" |
40835 | But it does n''t prove anything, does it?" |
40835 | But of what nature was it? |
40835 | But she shall have it-- she shall?" |
40835 | But the question was, who could be this dainty girl who called herself Lorena? |
40835 | But was it surprising that at his house no guest was more welcome than the man who had rescued him from ruin and from death? |
40835 | But what connection could old Statham have with the affair? |
40835 | But what? |
40835 | But what? |
40835 | But who among the whole of that narrow, fast- living little world would care to know me as a poor man? |
40835 | But who need know unless you yourself tell them?" |
40835 | But why do you ask all this?" |
40835 | But why? |
40835 | But with what motive? |
40835 | But would it not be to Statham''s interest to be on friendly terms with such a powerful factor in the Servian political world as Dr Petrovitch?" |
40835 | But you''ve failed, you say?" |
40835 | But,"he added, looking straight into the girl''s beautiful face,"will you not reconsider your decision, Miss Rolfe?" |
40835 | But-- well-- why do you ask all this?" |
40835 | But--""But what?" |
40835 | Can I be more explicit?" |
40835 | Can not you imagine, Max, my perturbed state of mind now that she has disappeared without a word?" |
40835 | Can you really ask that?" |
40835 | Can you suggest any friend she may have gone to visit? |
40835 | Could he recognise him again?" |
40835 | D''ye ken that, mon?" |
40835 | D''ye ken that?" |
40835 | Dare he face us? |
40835 | Did I not tell you so a moment ago?" |
40835 | Did Max Barclay really know how and why Marion had disappeared, and for motives of his own was making a mystery? |
40835 | Did he not lay the foundation of the house by the exercise of cunning and unscrupulous double- dealing? |
40835 | Did he suggest that he was to wilfully compromise her in the eyes of the world? |
40835 | Did it not seem very much as though the thieves had visited there after Charles Rolfe had fled so hurriedly? |
40835 | Did not the late Baron Hirsch lay the foundation of his huge fortune by a similar irade of his Majesty the Sultan? |
40835 | Did that white- enamelled door upon the stairs conceal from the world the evidence of a crime? |
40835 | Did they not kill poor Petkoff the other day in the Boris Garden in Sofia? |
40835 | Do n''t come, will you?" |
40835 | Do n''t you understand-- eh?" |
40835 | Do you follow me?" |
40835 | Do you happen to know a certain Mr John Adams?" |
40835 | Do you happen to know who, besides Barclay, is interested in the scheme?" |
40835 | Do you know the Doctor''s whereabouts?" |
40835 | Do you start from Charing Cross to- night?" |
40835 | Do you still doubt me?" |
40835 | Does Adam know you?" |
40835 | Does she know you are going?" |
40835 | Does such a threat against a defenceless woman do you credit?" |
40835 | Eventually Rolfe, lying back in an easy- chair, said:"Do you know, Sir Charles, a very curious thing has happened recently in London?" |
40835 | FRIEND OR FOE? |
40835 | For another few minutes they remained in silence, then Max whispered:"What shall we do?" |
40835 | For what reason? |
40835 | For what reason?" |
40835 | Green had told him that is master had left for the Continent, and yet had he not with his own eyes seen him fly from that house in Cromwell Road? |
40835 | Had any unpleasantness occurred between the two men, which his friend was concealing, knowing that Rolfe was his most intimate chum? |
40835 | Had he brought her there at that unusual hour to deliver a discourse upon the perils of affection? |
40835 | Had he carried this hatred to the extreme limit-- that of secret assassination? |
40835 | Had he discovered the truth regarding the strange disappearance of the Doctor and his daughter? |
40835 | Had he gone to Cromwell Road expecting to find the doctor at home, just as he had done? |
40835 | Had he really had a hand in it? |
40835 | Had he spoken the truth, or was he an ingenious liar? |
40835 | Had this man, brother of his own dear Marion, sworn falsely upon what he had held to be most sacred-- his love for Maud? |
40835 | Has he spoken to you about it?" |
40835 | Hasna''our ain Bobbie said that facts are chiels that winna ding, and downa be disputed?" |
40835 | Have I not said, a few moments ago, that I wanted to be your friend?" |
40835 | Have a cigar?" |
40835 | Have you been warehousing any goods either yesterday or to- day, or do you know of a job in Cromwell Road, at the house of a Doctor Petrovitch?" |
40835 | Have you had no message of whatever sort from Maud?" |
40835 | Have you heard nothing of them?" |
40835 | Have you never seen me before?" |
40835 | Have you never seen me before?" |
40835 | Have you seen him?" |
40835 | Have you written to Charlie telling him of the sudden disappearance?" |
40835 | Have you, do you think, at any time recently given some cause for offence to the Doctor?" |
40835 | He had just made a remark to that effect, and she had asked--"Why? |
40835 | He might not like it if he knew we had discussed his business affairs-- eh?" |
40835 | He turned upon Mr Cunnington in quick anger and said:"So I am to understand that you refuse me all information concerning her?" |
40835 | How can I ask? |
40835 | How can I repose equal confidence in you if you refuse me your name?" |
40835 | How could he offer it to her without insult? |
40835 | How could he put the proposal to the man before him? |
40835 | How dare the old man do such a thing?" |
40835 | How did you meet him?" |
40835 | How did you obtain it?" |
40835 | How much?" |
40835 | How would the old man act? |
40835 | I am not your enemy-- why should you be mine?" |
40835 | I am only seeking information abort the lady-- Maud Petrovitch, I think you said was her name?" |
40835 | I daresay you''ve heard that about me-- eh?" |
40835 | I do n''t think much of the new girl; do you? |
40835 | I have a suspicion that I can establish the identity of the foreigner in question-- a man who has to- day been missing?" |
40835 | I know my own business best, surely?" |
40835 | I know nothing about Servia, and besides--""Well?" |
40835 | I know-- only--""Only what? |
40835 | I may probably know him?" |
40835 | I see?" |
40835 | I sometimes think that--""That what?" |
40835 | I suppose the affair can not wait?" |
40835 | I wonder if he''s put any money into the venture?" |
40835 | I wrote to Cunnington myself regarding her, did n''t I? |
40835 | If Charlie is in love with her, and the affection is mutual, why does n''t he come straight and tell you?" |
40835 | If I did not trust you, do you think my affection would be so strong for you as it is?" |
40835 | If I were in possession of the facts, is it feasible that I should be so anxious of the welfare of Maud?" |
40835 | If foul play were suspected, was it not her bounden duty to relate all she knew? |
40835 | If he had, then why had he crept out of the place and made his escape so hurriedly? |
40835 | If it is, as I suspect, a mere flirtation-- what then?" |
40835 | If so, then where is the Doctor, where is his daughter Maud, and where are the servants?" |
40835 | If this is so, why have they not attempted to levy blackmail? |
40835 | If this were actually true, however, why should she reveal the truth to Maud''s lover? |
40835 | If you saw the state of the place you''d know, would n''t you?" |
40835 | If your sister chooses to go away and hide herself, how can I help it?" |
40835 | In what disgrace? |
40835 | In what manner did the furniture disappear?" |
40835 | Indeed, had he not practically charged him with opening the Doctor''s safe and abstracting its contents? |
40835 | Is Mr Cunnington himself aware of it?" |
40835 | Is he an adventurer like Adam?" |
40835 | Is he the Minister of Servia?" |
40835 | Is it concerning the development of the business that you wish to see Mr Statham?" |
40835 | Is it entirely cleared?" |
40835 | Is it far?" |
40835 | Is it just-- is it human?" |
40835 | Is it like the haunted house in Berkeley Square about which people used to talk so much years ago?" |
40835 | Is it not therefore surprising that he has never expressed a desire to seek out the truth?" |
40835 | Is it or is it not, a fact that you were at the house in Cromwell Road on the night of-- of their disappearance?" |
40835 | Is not that so?" |
40835 | Is not that so?" |
40835 | Is not your story a somewhat lame one?" |
40835 | Is such an action honourable? |
40835 | Is that so?" |
40835 | Is there any other gossip?" |
40835 | Is there any real reason why you should divulge it-- at least for the present?" |
40835 | Is there not mystery in the whole affair?" |
40835 | It is a secret between Muhil, Osman, and myself?" |
40835 | It was a mystery, and as such remains, is not that so?" |
40835 | It was rather injudicious just at this moment, was n''t it?" |
40835 | Looks about as though there had been some foul play, does n''t it?" |
40835 | Max Barclay loves you, does n''t he? |
40835 | Max and Jean Adam were seated with a bottle of Krug between them when the former exclaimed--"Well, how does our business go?" |
40835 | May I ask you to remain here until I return to you-- return to answer any inquiries you may be pleased to put to me?" |
40835 | May I offer you something?" |
40835 | May I with safety leave it there?" |
40835 | News of her? |
40835 | Now tell me, what do you know of its interior? |
40835 | Now, do you understand?" |
40835 | Of what?" |
40835 | Old or young?" |
40835 | Only--""Only what?" |
40835 | Or should he preserve silence? |
40835 | Or was he lurking there to ascertain who might be the visitor expected? |
40835 | Or would it be safer to boldly face Max, and if he makes any remark, to deny it?" |
40835 | Or would that further alarm the intruders? |
40835 | Perhaps the gentleman wanted to get his things away, eh?" |
40835 | Presently Rolfe said:"By the way, your Excellency, have you heard of late anything from Doctor Petrovitch?" |
40835 | Rolfe''s her name, is it?" |
40835 | Seen Marion lately?" |
40835 | Shall I ever forget those moments, or how near both of us were to death? |
40835 | Shall I show him in?" |
40835 | Shall I tell him you wish to see him?" |
40835 | Shall I throw out a gentle hint to him that the secret meetings would be best discontinued?" |
40835 | She has expressed a suspicion of foul play?" |
40835 | She knew Maud''s place of concealment, without a doubt; therefore, what more natural than she should have joined her? |
40835 | Should he rap at the door? |
40835 | Should he speak? |
40835 | So what is the use of expounding my theory?" |
40835 | Strange, is n''t it, that each one of us earns a reputation for something in which really does not excel?" |
40835 | Suppose he had sailed for India, South America, or South Africa, for instance? |
40835 | That''s quite certain?" |
40835 | The car is awaiting you at the Marble Arch, is n''t it?" |
40835 | The charming young lady whom I met with you the other night does not wish you to leave her side-- eh? |
40835 | The people killed King Alexander, it is true; but did we not kill King Charles?" |
40835 | The present was already dead, the future--? |
40835 | Then he seated himself, saying:"Now, old fellow, what are we to do? |
40835 | Then you really suspect that both Maud and her father have actually been the victims of some political plot?" |
40835 | Then, glancing at Marion, he added:"I trust that Mademoiselle will forgive this intrusion?" |
40835 | Then, standing before them, he said:"I presume, gentlemen, that your curiosity led you to break into my house?" |
40835 | Then, with a quick movement he pulled up his sleeve and showed on his right forearm a great cicatrice, asking:"Do you remember how I received this?" |
40835 | There''s some extraordinary story about his house in Park Lane, is n''t there? |
40835 | They come from the East somewhere, do n''t they-- a half- civilised lot?" |
40835 | This foreign doctor was a friend of yours, I suppose?" |
40835 | This is quite a revelation?" |
40835 | Was Charlie playing a straight game? |
40835 | Was Max Barclay really his friend? |
40835 | Was he asked to put money into the scheme, do you know?" |
40835 | Was he lying; or had he really gone to Cromwell Road in search of the Doctor and found the house untenanted and empty? |
40835 | Was he lying? |
40835 | Was he telling an untruth? |
40835 | Was he the"friend"of whom Sir Charles had spoken in Belgrade? |
40835 | Was her father hoping that she would marry some young Servian-- a man of his own race? |
40835 | Was it not in itself circumstantial evidence that some terrible crime had been committed? |
40835 | Was it not the unconscious truth that she spoke? |
40835 | Was it part of the millionaire''s cunning policy in Servia to rid the country of its greatest statesman? |
40835 | Was it possible that he had misjudged him? |
40835 | Was it possible that his employer knew his secret-- the secret of his visit to Cromwell Road on the previous night? |
40835 | Was it possible that his master knew well all the circumstances which had led the doctor to disappear in that manner so extraordinary? |
40835 | Was it really possible that he was in ignorance? |
40835 | Was it really possible? |
40835 | Was it sheer luck that had led this man Adam to offer to take him into it, or had the man some ulterior motive? |
40835 | Was it worth while at present, he reflected, saying anything to the police regarding the blood- stained garment? |
40835 | Was she given to that?" |
40835 | Was she merely carrying on a mild flirtation with him because of a sheer love of romance? |
40835 | Was that stain shown so vividly beneath the white moonbeams actually the stain of blood? |
40835 | Was the man before him his enemy or his friend? |
40835 | Was the man who threw the bomb caught?" |
40835 | Was the star of Rolfe''s prosperity on the wane? |
40835 | We''ll first see how Charlie''s marriage turns out-- eh?" |
40835 | Well?" |
40835 | Well?" |
40835 | Were thieves within? |
40835 | What are you up for?" |
40835 | What could I do? |
40835 | What could Max prove after all? |
40835 | What could have occurred to have caused this revolution in the Doctor''s house? |
40835 | What could he dread if this denial of his was the actual truth? |
40835 | What could he say? |
40835 | What could it all mean? |
40835 | What could it all mean? |
40835 | What could it mean? |
40835 | What could it mean? |
40835 | What could it possibly be? |
40835 | What could possibly have been its object? |
40835 | What could she know of the Damoclean sword suspended over the house of Statham? |
40835 | What could the girl mean? |
40835 | What did he mean? |
40835 | What do you believe the real truth to be?" |
40835 | What do you know of him? |
40835 | What do you know of him?" |
40835 | What do you mean?" |
40835 | What do you suggest it could be?" |
40835 | What do you suspect me of?" |
40835 | What does he concern you? |
40835 | What does he do? |
40835 | What does the sacrifice of one woman matter when it will mean the assurance of my future-- my salvation from ruin?" |
40835 | What explanation could she offer to Max? |
40835 | What greater tragedy could there be than the death of the innocent child blown to atoms by the bomb? |
40835 | What had become of the dear old Doctor and the pretty girl with the tiny wisp of hair straying across her white brow? |
40835 | What had he been doing in the empty house? |
40835 | What is it you wish to say? |
40835 | What mair d''ye want?" |
40835 | What more can I want?" |
40835 | What nationality was this Petrovitch?" |
40835 | What secret could possibly be hidden in those upper storeys that were at times so brilliantly lit? |
40835 | What shall I do? |
40835 | What should he do? |
40835 | What then? |
40835 | What was it? |
40835 | What was it? |
40835 | What was it?" |
40835 | What was she? |
40835 | What was the actual truth of that sadden disappearance? |
40835 | What was the real and actual truth? |
40835 | What were they? |
40835 | What would Charlie say? |
40835 | What would Max think? |
40835 | What would he believe? |
40835 | What would he say if he knew that she had dared to go alone there-- that she was seated in the old man''s private room? |
40835 | What would she think of him if she actually knew the truth? |
40835 | What''s the matter?" |
40835 | What, have they gone under?" |
40835 | What, indeed, could he say? |
40835 | What, indeed, would he have thought if he had witnessed old Sam''s consequent agitation, or overheard his confession to Rolfe? |
40835 | What?" |
40835 | When we met before it was under different circumstances-- very different, were n''t they?" |
40835 | When will he buy us all up to- day?" |
40835 | When?" |
40835 | Where did he keep it? |
40835 | Where did you see Maud last night?" |
40835 | Where have you been all this long time?" |
40835 | Where is he?" |
40835 | Where is it?" |
40835 | Where is she now?" |
40835 | Where is she? |
40835 | Where is yours to- day, and"--he sighed--"where is mine?" |
40835 | Where shall we begin?" |
40835 | Where shall we commence?" |
40835 | Where was she? |
40835 | Where was the statesman now? |
40835 | Who could it be? |
40835 | Who could this girl be who dined with Prime Ministers, and who was, apparently, behind the scenes of Balkan politics? |
40835 | Who does me the great honour of entertaining any affection for me?" |
40835 | Who has not? |
40835 | Who has not?" |
40835 | Who is with him now?" |
40835 | Who knows? |
40835 | Who was it if not the man seated there before him? |
40835 | Who was she? |
40835 | Who''d have thought of seeing you here? |
40835 | Who?" |
40835 | Whom?" |
40835 | Why am I bothered?" |
40835 | Why court unhappiness? |
40835 | Why did Marion not openly tell him of her fears or misgivings? |
40835 | Why did not she give him at least some idea of the nature of her companion''s admissions? |
40835 | Why do you say that?" |
40835 | Why do you say these things?" |
40835 | Why does n''t he?" |
40835 | Why forbid us also from seeking the Doctor and his daughter?" |
40835 | Why had Charles Rolfe fled so hurriedly and secretly from the place? |
40835 | Why had Rolfe been there? |
40835 | Why had he insisted that she should visit him in secret? |
40835 | Why had he openly charged him with having been present at the house in Cromwell Road after the disappearance of the Doctor and his daughter? |
40835 | Why had he taken such a sudden dislike to him? |
40835 | Why had his employer altered his declaration so as to suit the exigencies of the moment? |
40835 | Why had not Maud written? |
40835 | Why had she left Cunnington''s? |
40835 | Why has she left?" |
40835 | Why not ask them?" |
40835 | Why not go to somebody else?" |
40835 | Why should I?" |
40835 | Why should he open his gates to an enemy? |
40835 | Why waste time like this? |
40835 | Why were those brilliant lights sometimes at night in the upper windows? |
40835 | Why, for instance, did Maud Petrovitch visit you to- night?" |
40835 | Why, he wondered, had she sought him? |
40835 | Why? |
40835 | Why? |
40835 | Why? |
40835 | Why? |
40835 | Why? |
40835 | Why?" |
40835 | Why?" |
40835 | Will you do it?" |
40835 | Will you go, Miss Rolfe?" |
40835 | Will you not assist me?" |
40835 | Will you not explain? |
40835 | With what motive had an unknown man represented him on the night in question? |
40835 | Would he not spare fourteen days, travel there, and obtain it? |
40835 | Would he tell me, do you think?" |
40835 | Would it be fair, or just? |
40835 | Would it be safe to approach her? |
40835 | Would it not be better to ask the young lady herself?" |
40835 | Would she not rather hide it from him? |
40835 | Would the old financier assist him to discover the truth? |
40835 | Would you like me to send a man round to the house with you in order to give it a look over?" |
40835 | Ye do n''t think that I come to London a cringin''for more pay, do ye? |
40835 | Yet are not some men happy with the love of a good wife?" |
40835 | Yet how can he?--what impressions can he have? |
40835 | Yet how, recollecting that he had left the empty house in secret, could he believe that Max knew the truth and was concealing it? |
40835 | Yet if there has been a secret tragedy, why should the furniture have been made to disappear as well as themselves?" |
40835 | Yet was it not only what might be very naturally supposed that she would do? |
40835 | Yet what could that confession be? |
40835 | Yet what was the meaning of it all? |
40835 | You actually say you saw me?" |
40835 | You and I were both young once-- eh? |
40835 | You are aware of rule seventy- three-- eh?" |
40835 | You are early?" |
40835 | You go to Paris first, I suppose?" |
40835 | You know Harmer''s place at Chiswick, not far from Turnham Green railway station? |
40835 | You know her, of course?" |
40835 | You know him, I believe?" |
40835 | You know him?" |
40835 | You know how I love you-- and you surely recollect your promise to me, do n''t you?" |
40835 | You know that, do n''t you?" |
40835 | You know the horrors of the fortress here, on the Danube, with its subterranean cells-- eh?" |
40835 | You mean the secret lover-- the man who was here yesterday and bought a twenty- guinea evening gown of her to send to his sister-- eh?" |
40835 | You refuse to say anything?" |
40835 | You surely know that-- have I not told you so a hundred times? |
40835 | You yourself, Max, for instance, are not the man to give a woman away?" |
40835 | You''re afraid of what people might say-- eh? |
40835 | Your sister?" |
40835 | _ Where can I see her_?" |
40835 | and how is Mr Statham? |
40835 | and what causes you to believe that?" |
40835 | are you going abroad?" |
40835 | asked the girl, crimsoning--"sent out from your establishment without a character?" |
40835 | gasped the man from Glasgow;"ye do n''t say ye''re at the mercy of those devils?" |
40835 | he faltered--"what do you mean to imply?--why--?" |
40835 | he gasped, staring straight before him,"what then?" |
40835 | so you are a flatterer-- eh?" |
40835 | the black trunk?" |
40835 | then you believe me, Levi?" |
40835 | then you have quarrelled-- eh?" |
40835 | valuable man-- eh? |
40835 | you''re very fond of your brother, eh?" |
5231 | A man must be hard or soft,--which is best? |
5231 | A new neighbour? |
5231 | About Melmotte, you mean? |
5231 | After all, why should not Dolly marry a lady? |
5231 | Ah, indeed;--why not? 5231 Ah,--what can be done? |
5231 | Ah,--yes; if one knew who? |
5231 | Ai n''t I a friend, Ruby? |
5231 | Ai n''t he here? |
5231 | Ai n''t she bootiful now? |
5231 | Ai n''t single ladies much thought of in California? |
5231 | All the money!--What do you know about the money? 5231 Am I mistaken in supposing that I have n''t been paid my money?" |
5231 | Am I mistaken in supposing that my name has been forged to a letter? |
5231 | Am I not always glad to come, Lady Carbury? |
5231 | Am I not justified in saying it? |
5231 | Am I to be a slave? |
5231 | Am I to believe that? |
5231 | And I, who have come hither from California to see you, am to return satisfied because you tell me that you have-- changed your affections? 5231 And Lady Julia Start?" |
5231 | And a Jew? |
5231 | And about me? |
5231 | And about my own income? |
5231 | And am I to keep the other? |
5231 | And another up here in town? |
5231 | And are you going to leave, ma''am? |
5231 | And are you to come? |
5231 | And be in bed, and listen while he knocks,--knowing that he must wander in the streets if I refuse to let him in? 5231 And can that be done over in California?" |
5231 | And could n''t you manage that I should have the shares before the twentieth of next month? |
5231 | And did you go in? |
5231 | And full of triumph, I suppose? |
5231 | And has she got the money? |
5231 | And how did it end? |
5231 | And how do you like it? |
5231 | And how do you show it;--or your love for me? 5231 And how is it to be? |
5231 | And how long have you and she understood each other? |
5231 | And if a gentleman told you so? |
5231 | And in the meantime what is your own property? |
5231 | And my wife;--does she know? |
5231 | And nearly as old as I am? |
5231 | And now what about Winifrid Hurtle? |
5231 | And now,she said,"tell me about yourself?" |
5231 | And sea? |
5231 | And she has been,--a friend of Paul''s? |
5231 | And she has promised to have you? |
5231 | And that is all? |
5231 | And the dinner went off pretty well? |
5231 | And the father? |
5231 | And the girl? |
5231 | And the land is to be made over to you,--when? |
5231 | And there shall be no more nonsense? |
5231 | And therefore is it not imperative that he should marry a girl with money? |
5231 | And to vere has Mr. Cohenlupe gone? |
5231 | And turn you out of your own house? 5231 And ven shall it be? |
5231 | And what am I to do? |
5231 | And what am I to say to aunt? |
5231 | And what did Mr. Melmotte say? |
5231 | And what did you say to her? |
5231 | And what do you mean that I''m to do, Sir Felix? |
5231 | And what do you think of her? |
5231 | And what does Marie say? |
5231 | And what does that matter? 5231 And what would she do, remaining here?" |
5231 | And what''s that? |
5231 | And what''s the result? |
5231 | And when''ll I come back again? |
5231 | And where had we better go to? |
5231 | And where is he now, aunt? |
5231 | And where is it as''em dances? |
5231 | And where is the money you took from your mother? |
5231 | And where will she go? |
5231 | And where would Mr. Carbury go? |
5231 | And where''s Mr. Killegrew,--and Sir David Boss? |
5231 | And where''s the Lord Mayor? |
5231 | And where''s the money gone? |
5231 | And whose is this? |
5231 | And why not you? |
5231 | And why should you be entitled to Montague''s money more than any of us? |
5231 | And why should you no be willing, you contrairy young jade, you? |
5231 | And would Didon go too? |
5231 | And would you come to Folkestone? |
5231 | And you are no longer an editor? |
5231 | And you have accepted nothing? |
5231 | And you know he means it now? |
5231 | And you loved her? |
5231 | And you mean to be as good as your word? |
5231 | And you mean to put up with it, mamma? |
5231 | And you think that money got in that way redounds to his credit? |
5231 | And you will come back to me? |
5231 | And you will expect Miss Ruby to come to the scratch? |
5231 | And you will go yourself? |
5231 | And you will tell me nothing? 5231 And you would be really proud of Mr. Melmotte as a convert?" |
5231 | And you''ll come? |
5231 | And you''ll see about letting me have those shares? |
5231 | And you''ve seen somebody you like better than me? |
5231 | And you;--what did you say? |
5231 | And you? |
5231 | Anything particular do you mean? |
5231 | Anything serious? |
5231 | Are any of you coming to church, or are you going to keep the carriage waiting all day? |
5231 | Are not you going to the men? |
5231 | Are the Longestaffes mixed up in it? 5231 Are the Mexicans a new people?" |
5231 | Are they going to send you to prison? |
5231 | Are you angry with me? |
5231 | Are you going down to the club for supper at this time in the morning? |
5231 | Are you going to see Melmotte, sir? |
5231 | Are you in the house here? |
5231 | Are you like that? 5231 As it happens I have not,"said Sir Felix;--"but what if I had?" |
5231 | As to her, I suppose it does not matter what she says, does it? |
5231 | As well as George Whitstable? 5231 As you found yourself obliged to run away,"said Roger,"I''m glad that you should be here; but you do n''t mean to stay here always?" |
5231 | At the expense of anything? |
5231 | At the expense of veracity? |
5231 | Because I love you;--that''s why I come; eh, Ruby? 5231 Because I''m so detestable?" |
5231 | Been along wi''Ruby? |
5231 | Brandy? |
5231 | But I suppose he intends that you shall be married? |
5231 | But does he love her? |
5231 | But he''s so savage; is n''t he? |
5231 | But how has it not come off? |
5231 | But how? |
5231 | But if I ca n''t be unanimous? |
5231 | But if I do n''t? |
5231 | But if she does n''t like him? |
5231 | But if she will not see me? |
5231 | But if there is, what has that to do with a railway in the city? 5231 But if they should say that I''m not an Englishman?" |
5231 | But is n''t it true? 5231 But she has one?" |
5231 | But she loves you? |
5231 | But we are to go back? |
5231 | But what am I to do? 5231 But what can she do? |
5231 | But what does that signify? 5231 But what is the use of his coming to me? |
5231 | But what''s beauty, Mrs. Hurtle? 5231 But what''s the good of it? |
5231 | But what''s the use of having them? |
5231 | But when? |
5231 | But why did he come to me in his madness-- to me especially? 5231 But why did n''t he give you the scrip?" |
5231 | But why did n''t you come by the train you named? |
5231 | But why not, papa? 5231 But why should you be false to her? |
5231 | But why? |
5231 | But you agree that we ought to do something about these shares? |
5231 | But you are prospering in this business? |
5231 | But you did not promise to speak;--did you? |
5231 | But you do love me? |
5231 | But you have changed your mind? |
5231 | But you have got enough to support a baronet''s title? |
5231 | But you will be his friend? |
5231 | But you,--when did you arrive here? |
5231 | But, Felix? |
5231 | By- the- bye, Mr. Melmotte,said he,"could you let me have those shares?" |
5231 | C''est tout en règle? |
5231 | CAN I MARRY THE MAN I DO NOT LOVE? |
5231 | CAN YOU BE READY IN TEN MINUTES? |
5231 | CAN YOU BE READY IN TEN MINUTES? |
5231 | Can I have a horse to ride over to Caversham this afternoon? |
5231 | Can I? 5231 Can they hurt you, Melmotte?" |
5231 | Can you love me like that? |
5231 | Certainly;--why not? 5231 Come; what is it? |
5231 | Could n''t Lord Alfred say a word to him? |
5231 | Dear me;--isn''t it odd, having a lot of people in one''s own house, and not being able to speak a word to them? 5231 Did I say anything? |
5231 | Did I? 5231 Did I?" |
5231 | Did anybody ever see anything so vulgar? |
5231 | Did he forbid you to come there any more? |
5231 | Did he intend to insult you? |
5231 | Did he see them? |
5231 | Did he tell you of my answer? |
5231 | Did he? 5231 Did n''t she like him, Daniel?" |
5231 | Did n''t ye say as how ye''d have him? 5231 Did n''t you have a row in the street with some one the other day?" |
5231 | Did n''t you say as you would, Ruby? 5231 Did not you yourself feel that you were rebuked for coming here with me, when he expressed surprise at your journey? |
5231 | Did she not come over here to marry some one else? |
5231 | Did she say anything? |
5231 | Did ye find her, squoire? |
5231 | Did you ever hear anything like that, Nidderdale? |
5231 | Did you give her up then? |
5231 | Did you give it to Sir Felix Carbury? |
5231 | Did you not advise me to get out of it, Roger;--before we knew as much as we do now? |
5231 | Did you not promise that we should go back if we would come down and entertain these people? |
5231 | Did you not say the girl had promised to love that man? |
5231 | Did you not? |
5231 | Did you say a good word for me? |
5231 | Did you say you would be my husband? 5231 Did you-- know of him before?" |
5231 | Do I? |
5231 | Do n''t I? 5231 Do n''t she have a bellyful o''vittels?" |
5231 | Do n''t they? 5231 Do n''t we wish we may get it?" |
5231 | Do n''t you feel ashamed of yourself? |
5231 | Do n''t you see lots of old bachelors about, Ruby? |
5231 | Do n''t you think he is right? |
5231 | Do n''t you think it''s anything out of the way to be engaged to a young man and then to throw him over? 5231 Do n''t you think that Carbury and I ought to have some shares to sell?" |
5231 | Do n''t you think they should be equal in that respect? |
5231 | Do they? |
5231 | Do we say our prayers in them when we have built them? |
5231 | Do you believe about the Austrian Insurance Company? |
5231 | Do you believe it? |
5231 | Do you consider that she''s engaged to you? |
5231 | Do you know anything about it? |
5231 | Do you know anything about that young fellow? |
5231 | Do you know him, Felix? |
5231 | Do you know how much you owe me? |
5231 | Do you know of the scourges, as a fact? |
5231 | Do you know that she loves Felix? 5231 Do you like Mr. Broune, Hetta?" |
5231 | Do you love him as I would have you love me? |
5231 | Do you mean that Felix should not marry the girl, even if they love each other? |
5231 | Do you mean that he should have come in? 5231 Do you mean that he volunteered that,--as a threat?" |
5231 | Do you mean that that is settled? |
5231 | Do you mean that you are engaged to marry him? |
5231 | Do you mean that you, my own child, will attempt to rob your father just at the moment you can destroy him by your wickedness? |
5231 | Do you mean that, after all, I am to be thrown off like an old glove? 5231 Do you mean that?" |
5231 | Do you mean to give it then? |
5231 | Do you mean to hint anything? |
5231 | Do you mean to let him eat up everything you have to your last shilling, and then go to the workhouse with him? |
5231 | Do you mean to make her your wife? |
5231 | Do you mean to say I ca n''t come in? |
5231 | Do you mean to say that I have opened your drawer? |
5231 | Do you mean to say that you ca n''t ask anybody to your house without asking everybody that lives with that person? 5231 Do you mean to say that-- you are going to-- throw me over?" |
5231 | Do you mean to say, Felix, that Marie Melmotte has accepted you? |
5231 | Do you mean to tell her that my statement is untrue? |
5231 | Do you not like me to say that I would have you be a hero? |
5231 | Do you not? 5231 Do you now refuse to keep your promise? |
5231 | Do you now? |
5231 | Do you now? |
5231 | Do you really love me well enough? |
5231 | Do you remember what you said to me that evening at my mother''s? |
5231 | Do you stay long? |
5231 | Do you suppose, my friend, that I run after them for my own gratification? 5231 Do you think I shall ever forget your preferences and dislikings? |
5231 | Do you think he gambles? |
5231 | Do you think it is worse than others have suffered before you? 5231 Do you think it must be so;--certainly?" |
5231 | Do you think only of yourself? 5231 Do you understand how much I am in need of comfort?" |
5231 | Do you want my daughter? |
5231 | Do you wonder that that is a story that a woman should hesitate to tell? 5231 Do you? |
5231 | Do you? |
5231 | Do you? |
5231 | Does Mr. Montague mean to make you his wife? |
5231 | Does Mr. Paul Montague mean to make you his wife? |
5231 | Does he expect me to find anybody here that I could take? 5231 Does she see Felix Carbury?" |
5231 | Engaged to marry Miss Melmotte? |
5231 | Even though their own objects may be vile and pernicious? |
5231 | Everything is ready in your own house? |
5231 | Explains what, Felix? |
5231 | Felix, how dare you say things so wicked as that to me? |
5231 | Felix,she said,"why do you make so much noise as you come in?" |
5231 | Find out what? |
5231 | Gentlemen,said Mr. Melmotte, in his usual hurried way,"is it your pleasure that I shall sign the record?" |
5231 | Georgey,she said one morning in their mother''s presence,"do n''t you think Mr. Brehgert''s watch ought to go back to him without any more delay?" |
5231 | Go too-- why should n''t she? |
5231 | Go where? |
5231 | Going to dine here, Dolly? |
5231 | Going to hunt to- morrow? |
5231 | Good news? |
5231 | HAVE YOU HEARD WHAT''S UP, JU? |
5231 | Had he any meaning? |
5231 | Had she been divorced then? |
5231 | Had you not better ask him about it? |
5231 | Had you not better send for a doctor? |
5231 | Had you seen him before? |
5231 | Halloo, old fellow,he said,"you''ve been keeping it up late here; have n''t you?" |
5231 | Has Longestaffe''s money been paid? |
5231 | Has Lord Alfred been here? |
5231 | Has Roger asked you? |
5231 | Has he asked you to marry him? |
5231 | Has he done anything, mamma? |
5231 | Has he heard about Felix;--has he come about that? |
5231 | Has he seen her? |
5231 | Has it made you happy? |
5231 | Has it never been done? |
5231 | Has n''t he now? |
5231 | Has she a husband? |
5231 | Has she written to you, then? |
5231 | Has your mother been told? |
5231 | Have I behaved bad? |
5231 | Have another rubber, Alfred? |
5231 | Have it been put in writing, Sir Felix Carbury? |
5231 | Have n''t they been made? |
5231 | Have n''t you been out? |
5231 | Have you and Sir Felix put any money into it? |
5231 | Have you anything special to say about the Railway? |
5231 | Have you asked him? |
5231 | Have you been at the Melmottes''to- day? |
5231 | Have you been riding? |
5231 | Have you been thinking about what we were talking about the other day? |
5231 | Have you been thinking any more about it? |
5231 | Have you been up with Marie to- day? |
5231 | Have you been up with the ladies? |
5231 | Have you got it? |
5231 | Have you had a pleasant evening, mamma? |
5231 | Have you had a pleasant evening, my dear? |
5231 | Have you heard from the man? |
5231 | Have you heard what''s up, Ju? |
5231 | Have you no particular friend? |
5231 | Have you nothing to say? |
5231 | Have you seen Felix? |
5231 | Have you seen Marie lately? |
5231 | Have you seen him since you went to Liverpool? |
5231 | Have you seen him? |
5231 | Have you the courage to ask him? 5231 He brazens it out, do n''t he?" |
5231 | He does n''t do any harm, I suppose? |
5231 | He is a gentleman then? |
5231 | He is that fat man? |
5231 | He knows nothing about her coming to town? |
5231 | He might have said, why did n''t you tell Longestaffe? |
5231 | He was regularly smashed, I suppose? |
5231 | He will not try again, you think? |
5231 | He''s a young man, is n''t he? |
5231 | He''s awfully full of work just now,--you wo n''t forget that;--will you? |
5231 | He''s going to do something out in the East, is n''t he? |
5231 | He''s not dead then? |
5231 | Heard what? |
5231 | Hetta, wherever have you been? |
5231 | Hetta, why do n''t you speak to me? |
5231 | Hetta,she said,"why do n''t you speak to me?" |
5231 | His own affairs, Roger? 5231 How about getting married?" |
5231 | How about money though? |
5231 | How am I to answer you at a moment? 5231 How am I to control my thoughts? |
5231 | How am I to tell? 5231 How are they changed? |
5231 | How can I answer that myself? 5231 How can I help it, Georgey? |
5231 | How can I say, mamma? |
5231 | How can I say, yet? 5231 How can I show that I care more than by wishing to make you my wife?" |
5231 | How can I tell her? 5231 How can I tell? |
5231 | How can he know, mamma? |
5231 | How can mamma be such a hypocrite as to pretend to care what Dolly says? 5231 How can there be any comfort? |
5231 | How can you know that? |
5231 | How can you know, Miss Melmotte, but by believing? |
5231 | How can you know? 5231 How can you say that when she has just accepted this young man? |
5231 | How can you speak so of one who has treated you with the utmost contumely? |
5231 | How can you trust me to answer such a question? 5231 How could I take your money? |
5231 | How could he do that, mamma? |
5231 | How could he,--expecting to find you? |
5231 | How could it become yours, Marie? 5231 How do you dare to tell me that what I say is nonsense?" |
5231 | How do you do, Sir Felix? |
5231 | How do you expect to live, then? 5231 How do you intend to answer him?" |
5231 | How do you know till I''ve made it? |
5231 | How do you like the party? |
5231 | How does he manage it? 5231 How far have you got?" |
5231 | How is it that there are so many places empty? |
5231 | How is one to know when and how and why a young man like that will change his purpose? |
5231 | How last? |
5231 | How long do you suppose that we shall be kept here? |
5231 | How long was he here? |
5231 | How many horses have you got at Leighton, Dolly? |
5231 | How many? 5231 How much?" |
5231 | How much? |
5231 | How row? |
5231 | How shall it be? |
5231 | How should you,--with all the world flocking round you? 5231 How the deuce am I to get there?" |
5231 | How''d you do, Miss Longestaffe? 5231 I am to be alone?" |
5231 | I did n''t mean nothing bad, Mrs. Hurtle; only why could n''t he say what he had to say himself, instead of bringing another to say it for him? 5231 I do n''t suppose he sent you here?" |
5231 | I may come to the hall as I go back home? |
5231 | I mean really the sea, Paul? |
5231 | I suppose all this about Miss Melmotte is true? |
5231 | I suppose he can be cross? |
5231 | I suppose he told you everything;--didn''t he? 5231 I suppose it will make no difference to you whether your chairman be in Parliament or not?" |
5231 | I suppose old Melmotte is all right? |
5231 | I suppose one can get a dinner here? |
5231 | I suppose the old man down here did ill use her? |
5231 | I suppose they allow some time to their own Directors, if a deposit, say 50 per cent., is made for the shares? |
5231 | I suppose you still retain an interest in the paper? |
5231 | I suppose you were at the Board? |
5231 | I suppose you''ll take him if he asks you? |
5231 | I suppose, mamma, you will write to papa? |
5231 | I wonder what you expect, Hetta, when you talk of-- London people? 5231 I wonder whether any fellow would buy these for five shillings in the pound?" |
5231 | I wonder whether his father did it, or old Bideawhile, or Melmotte himself? |
5231 | I wonder whether that will come to anything? |
5231 | I wonder whether you''d hate Frisco? |
5231 | I''ve worked for it, I suppose;--haven''t I? |
5231 | I? 5231 IN THE MEANTIME WHAT IS YOUR OWN PROPERTY?" |
5231 | If I do n''t mind them, why need you? 5231 If he did nothing, how much better would that be than what he does in town? |
5231 | If he were to marry and have children, how would it be then? |
5231 | If he were unworthy would your heart never change? |
5231 | If you''re wrong about the money, and he should n''t come round, where should we be then? |
5231 | In God''s name where do you expect the money is to come from? |
5231 | In fact, there is nothing more to be done, I suppose? |
5231 | In what sort of way, my dear? |
5231 | In what way lucky? |
5231 | In what way, my dear? |
5231 | Is Cromer by the sea? |
5231 | Is Montague going to marry her? |
5231 | Is Mr. Lupton going? |
5231 | Is anything going to happen, Melmotte? |
5231 | Is anything the matter, Felix? |
5231 | Is he doing anything? |
5231 | Is he hurt, mamma? |
5231 | Is he ill, mamma? |
5231 | Is he ill? 5231 Is he nice?" |
5231 | Is he the only man you can trust? 5231 Is he, now?" |
5231 | Is it about that other scamp? |
5231 | Is it about the election? |
5231 | Is it always ready money? |
5231 | Is it anything about the election to- morrow? |
5231 | Is it anything special? |
5231 | Is it business? |
5231 | Is it honest then, or like a gentleman, that you should be with her in this way? 5231 Is it mine?" |
5231 | Is it my fault, mamma? |
5231 | Is it my nature to say bitter things? 5231 Is it not my business too?" |
5231 | Is n''t there any playing? |
5231 | Is not Mr. Grendall coming? |
5231 | Is not that dangerous? 5231 Is she a widow?" |
5231 | Is she civil to you? |
5231 | Is she here? |
5231 | Is she? 5231 Is that all?" |
5231 | Is that all? |
5231 | Is that his message, Miss Carbury? |
5231 | Is that the reason you have n''t played the last two nights? |
5231 | Is that true? |
5231 | Is that you, Miles? |
5231 | Is the man a Jew? |
5231 | Is there any doubt about our going to- night? |
5231 | Is there any law against dancing three times? |
5231 | Is there anything in it that seems to you to be unreasonable? 5231 Is there anything the matter?" |
5231 | Is there anything up between you and Miles? |
5231 | Is there anything wrong, Melmotte? |
5231 | Is this wise? |
5231 | Is your Grace going? |
5231 | Is yours stern, my lord? |
5231 | It is that,--or staying here? |
5231 | It looks homely; do n''t it, John? |
5231 | It will be the proper thing to do;--won''t it? |
5231 | It''ll stop the sale? |
5231 | It''s an expensive sort of thing;--isn''t it? |
5231 | It''s your own fault, Ruby; is n''t it? |
5231 | John Crumb coming here, grandfather? 5231 John Crumb, have you anything to say?" |
5231 | Just so, mother;--but how about the twenty pounds? |
5231 | Laws a mercy; what is it? |
5231 | Let me have my say, will ye, yer jade, you? 5231 Madame Melmotte?" |
5231 | Mamma, have you any idea what papa means to do? |
5231 | Mamma, where are you going? |
5231 | Mamma, why do n''t you let me be a comfort to you? 5231 Mamma, you can not really mean to talk about that now?" |
5231 | Mamma,said Hetta jumping up,"how can you talk to me in that way? |
5231 | Marie, how can you be so wicked? 5231 Marie, why ca n''t you let your papa speak?" |
5231 | Marie,he said,"will you do this to save your father from destruction?" |
5231 | Marie,--do you wish to see me disgraced and ruined? 5231 Matter;--what should be the matter? |
5231 | May I be allowed to tell her who was asking after her? |
5231 | May I go to papa? |
5231 | May I hear what you say to her? |
5231 | May I speak to Sir Damask about it? |
5231 | Melmotte''s at Pickering? |
5231 | Mention what? 5231 Miss Carbury?" |
5231 | Money to come from, sir? 5231 More nor once or twice?" |
5231 | Mother,he said,"would you mind coming into the other room?" |
5231 | Mr. Carbury did take it upon himself to rebuke you for showing yourself on the sands at Lowestoft with such a one as I am? |
5231 | Mr. Grendall has not been here? |
5231 | Mrs. Hurtle has gone down to Southend? |
5231 | Must the purpose be told to- night? |
5231 | My dear fellow, what''s the use of your flurrying yourself? 5231 My dear young friend, what can I do for you?" |
5231 | My dear, what can we do? |
5231 | My dears, if you quarrel what am I to do? |
5231 | No disgrace in going about at midnight with such a one as Felix Carbury? 5231 No;--why should I have seen him? |
5231 | Nor Lord Alfred? 5231 Nor Lord Alfred?" |
5231 | Nor got any profits? |
5231 | Not back at the office, Croll? |
5231 | Not going to talk about it here? |
5231 | Not when you borrow her money? |
5231 | Now that you are going to leave me, Paul, is there any advice you can give me, as to what I shall do next? 5231 Now, Mrs. Pipkin, just you say,"pleaded Ruby,"how was it possible for any girl to live with an old man like that?" |
5231 | Now, have you done? |
5231 | Of course there''s a house to live in and clothes to wear; but what''s to be the end of it? 5231 Oh Dolly, whoever would have thought of seeing you?" |
5231 | Oh dear no;--why not certainly? 5231 Oh laws, Mr. Montague, is that you?" |
5231 | Oh no;--how should I? |
5231 | Oh, Mr. Melmotte, vat is de matter? |
5231 | Oh, Roger, how has he been false? |
5231 | Oh, do n''t I? |
5231 | Oh, indeed;--Miss Carbury!--the sister of Sir Felix Carbury? |
5231 | Oh, mamma, do you mean me? |
5231 | Oh, the heir are you? 5231 Oh, you were there;--were you? |
5231 | Oh;--didn''t he? |
5231 | Or heard from him? |
5231 | Or shall I send Didon, and give you the money on board the ship? |
5231 | Papa, do n''t you think you could settle now when we are to go back to town? 5231 Paul,"she said,"I have come again across the Atlantic on purpose to see you,--after so many months,--and will you not give me one kiss? |
5231 | Roger Carbury will not say so? |
5231 | Rough;--what the devil do you mean by that? |
5231 | Ruby and I are both honest;--ain''t we, Ruby? 5231 Say to her? |
5231 | Say;--what should he say? 5231 Seen whom?" |
5231 | Settled on whom? |
5231 | Shall I be your darling? 5231 Shall I come up again?" |
5231 | Shall I marry him, mamma, without loving him? |
5231 | Shall I write to her;--or shall I see her? |
5231 | Shall we have to move? |
5231 | Shall we have to-- move again? |
5231 | Shall you go? |
5231 | She do n''t deserve it; do she? 5231 She had money with her?" |
5231 | She has accepted you, herself? |
5231 | She has consented to your coming to me? |
5231 | She has made it up with her grandfather? |
5231 | She has written to you;--has she not? |
5231 | She knows you''re coming then? |
5231 | She told you to go to her father? |
5231 | She wo n''t let the Baro- nite come there? |
5231 | So he has given up the paper? |
5231 | So he was Mr. Montague''s partner,--was he now? |
5231 | So you think it would be best that you and I should never see each other again? |
5231 | Speak, man,--is it that you want a younger wife? |
5231 | Stay how long? |
5231 | Surely he has not quarrelled with you, Hetta? |
5231 | Tell me this, Hetta; are you engaged to marry him? |
5231 | Tell me, Melmotte;--are they going to? |
5231 | Tell you what? |
5231 | That is full of people; is it not?--a fashionable place? |
5231 | That is his message;--is it? |
5231 | That it is all over? |
5231 | That moight come in handy by- and- by;--moightn''t it, squoire? |
5231 | That we can hardly help;--can we? 5231 That''s Didon''s plan?" |
5231 | That''s another dodge, is it? |
5231 | That''s his game;--is it? |
5231 | That''s what Roger says; is it? 5231 The ladies have come back from Southend, Miss Ruggles?" |
5231 | Then a girl is to marry without stopping even to think whether she likes the man or not? |
5231 | Then how do you know? 5231 Then what is it?" |
5231 | Then what makes you think he would marry you? |
5231 | Then what must she be, to be here with you? 5231 Then why did n''t he behave as such?" |
5231 | Then why do you beg her last shilling from your mother, and when you have money not pay it back to her? |
5231 | Then why do you come and live with them? |
5231 | Then why do you do it? 5231 Then why not open it to- night? |
5231 | Then why risk it by such an act? 5231 Then why tell me that we know so little of each other? |
5231 | Then why the deuce should you give it him? |
5231 | Then why wo n''t you let me bring her back again? |
5231 | Then you think that Mr. Melmotte is--? |
5231 | Then, sir, are you not a liar? |
5231 | Then, when the deuce will you pay me what you owe me? |
5231 | There ai n''t nothing wanting in his house;--is there, John? 5231 There is no one as yet?" |
5231 | There is not going to be any fighting, Felix? |
5231 | There is nothing, then, between you? 5231 There''s no knowing;--is there?" |
5231 | There''s some lover, is n''t there;--some would- be husband whom she does not like? |
5231 | They are down here then? |
5231 | They did n''t know, then? |
5231 | They did, did they? 5231 Things will go on just the same as usual, Melmotte?" |
5231 | This is awful;--ain''t it? |
5231 | This is your game, is it? |
5231 | This young woman is living here;--is she? |
5231 | To marry a girl, the daughter of vulgar people, just because she will have a great deal of money? 5231 To pull me all about by the hairs of my head was n''t the way to make a girl keep her word;--was it, Mr. Carbury? |
5231 | To say what? |
5231 | Very small? 5231 Vy not, my dear? |
5231 | WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES THAT MAKE? |
5231 | Was he angry with you? |
5231 | Was he uncivil to you? |
5231 | Was n''t John Crumb regular, Ruby? |
5231 | Was n''t Vossner ever caught? |
5231 | Was that all you saw of him? |
5231 | Was that for her-- health? |
5231 | Was there ever such a stoopid as John Crumb? 5231 We can make up a rubber;--can''t we?" |
5231 | We need n''t break our hearts about that;--need we? |
5231 | Well, Croll,he said with an attempt at a smile,"what brings you here so early?" |
5231 | Well, Miss Melmotte,he said;"governors are stern beings: are they not?" |
5231 | Well, my Lord, and how are you? |
5231 | Well,he said;"what do you think of it? |
5231 | Well; what has he said? |
5231 | Well;--it ca n''t be helped; can it? 5231 Well?" |
5231 | Well? |
5231 | Were you indeed? 5231 What Mr. Brehgert is he?" |
5231 | What am I to do with him? |
5231 | What am I to say to the Squire? |
5231 | What am I to say? 5231 What am I to say?" |
5231 | What are we to do? 5231 What are you thinking of, Felix?" |
5231 | What brings you here, I wonder? 5231 What brought him here?" |
5231 | What business is it of yours? |
5231 | What business is that of yours? |
5231 | What can I say, Miss Melmotte? 5231 What can be the objection?" |
5231 | What can mamma do? |
5231 | What can we do, my dear? |
5231 | What can you want? 5231 What cat?" |
5231 | What did I come for? |
5231 | What did Marie Melmotte say to you? |
5231 | What did he say, Dolly? |
5231 | What did she say to me? |
5231 | What did that matter? 5231 What did you say?" |
5231 | What did you think of our bishop? |
5231 | What difference does a house make? |
5231 | What difference does that make? |
5231 | What do I want? |
5231 | What do you call wrong? |
5231 | What do you care for? |
5231 | What do you get then, by going into the city? |
5231 | What do you mean by a dodge, Mr. Carbury? 5231 What do you mean by a large sum?" |
5231 | What do you mean by found out? |
5231 | What do you mean by paying for it, Julia? |
5231 | What do you mean by that, Hetta? 5231 What do you mean by that?" |
5231 | What do you mean by that? |
5231 | What do you mean by that? |
5231 | What do you mean? |
5231 | What do you think I''m going to do with her? |
5231 | What does he say, dear? |
5231 | What does it matter to you if he''s eighty? 5231 What does it matter, Felix?" |
5231 | What does it matter, if the money''s there? |
5231 | What does it matter? |
5231 | What does it matter? |
5231 | What does it signify? 5231 What does she mean then? |
5231 | What does that matter? 5231 What does the Squire want o''me? |
5231 | What does the mother say? |
5231 | What does your papa say? 5231 What guests?" |
5231 | What had I better do? |
5231 | What had we better do? 5231 What harm can it do you?" |
5231 | What has become of the mill? |
5231 | What has happened to him? |
5231 | What has happened, Felix? |
5231 | What has he said? 5231 What has his beauty brought him to? |
5231 | What has she written to him for? 5231 What have you got to do with anybody''s watch? |
5231 | What have you got to say? |
5231 | What is going to happen, Melmotte? |
5231 | What is he to do? 5231 What is it all about?" |
5231 | What is it for, Felix? |
5231 | What is it then? 5231 What is that?" |
5231 | What is the good of all that, mamma? |
5231 | What is the meaning of this, Felix? 5231 What is the worst of it?" |
5231 | What is there against you? |
5231 | What is there wicked in it? 5231 What is to be the end of it then?" |
5231 | What is to be the end of it, Felix? |
5231 | What is true, then? 5231 What is up?" |
5231 | What made you so savage at old Melmotte to- day? |
5231 | What makes you ask that? |
5231 | What makes you ask? 5231 What makes you so uneasy?" |
5231 | What makes you think that, Marie? |
5231 | What man, Miss Carbury? |
5231 | What money, my dear fellow? 5231 What money?" |
5231 | What more can I say? 5231 What more do you want to know? |
5231 | What must come to an end? |
5231 | What must it have been to me then, who had nothing to do? |
5231 | What on earth are we to do with them? |
5231 | What on earth can be more natural than that you should go to your own cousin''s house? |
5231 | What one thing? |
5231 | What people? |
5231 | What purpose? |
5231 | What shall I say to her? |
5231 | What shares? |
5231 | What should they keep him in prison for? |
5231 | What should you do? |
5231 | What the Devil''s the use of it? |
5231 | What the deuce do you mean? |
5231 | What the deuce is Vossner about? |
5231 | What the deuce is it to him? |
5231 | What the devil does that matter? |
5231 | What the mischief does he mean? |
5231 | What truth? 5231 What will Hetta do?" |
5231 | What will mamma say? |
5231 | What woman? |
5231 | What word? 5231 What word?" |
5231 | What would Felix do in the country? |
5231 | What would you have me say? |
5231 | What''s all the love in the world, Ruby, if a man ca n''t do for you? |
5231 | What''s all this about? |
5231 | What''s all this about? |
5231 | What''s hard? 5231 What''s letters? |
5231 | What''s that to us if he has our money ready? 5231 What''s the good of talking about it?" |
5231 | What''s the odds? |
5231 | What''s the use of being beastly ill- natured? 5231 What''s the use of taking such a lot of trouble?" |
5231 | What''s the use of that, if he is ruined? |
5231 | What''s the use? 5231 What''s this I hear about a lady at Islington?" |
5231 | What''s this about Felix? |
5231 | What''s this? 5231 What''s up now?" |
5231 | What''s up with the Governor? |
5231 | What, Joe Mixet; is that thou? 5231 What; rob my own boy?" |
5231 | What;--can there be more reason than that,--better reason than that? 5231 When and how was I to have helped myself?" |
5231 | When is the proper day? |
5231 | When may I hope for an answer? |
5231 | When will I go? 5231 Where are the others?" |
5231 | Where be she, Muster Ruggles? |
5231 | Where did it come from? |
5231 | Where did you get it? |
5231 | Where do you suppose Sir Felix Carbury is now? |
5231 | Where is he now, Lady Carbury;--at this moment? |
5231 | Where is the money, Felix? |
5231 | Where must we go? 5231 Where should I have been?" |
5231 | Where should it come from but the''Breakfast Table''? 5231 Where the blessed angels have you been?" |
5231 | Where the mischief is the jade gone? |
5231 | Where would Madame Melmotte wish to go? |
5231 | Where''s Sir Gregory? |
5231 | Where''s the money to come from? |
5231 | Where''s your family seat? |
5231 | Whether you''ll accept me? |
5231 | Who are they? |
5231 | Who asks you? |
5231 | Who began it? |
5231 | Who cares for all Bungay,--a set of beery chaps as knows nothing but swilling and smoking;--and John Crumb the main of''em all? 5231 Who did then? |
5231 | Who do you suppose was at our place yesterday? |
5231 | Who do you think is in town? |
5231 | Who do you think was at our place yesterday? |
5231 | Who doubts that? 5231 Who got the cheque changed?" |
5231 | Who has seen him alive? 5231 Who has thrashed him?" |
5231 | Who has told you anything about a lady at Islington? |
5231 | Who is she, Ruby? |
5231 | Who is to say it? |
5231 | Who is walking off? |
5231 | Who is? 5231 Who pays for all these horses?" |
5231 | Who rides them? |
5231 | Who the d---- are you? |
5231 | Who told you that? 5231 Who wants you to put up with it?" |
5231 | Who wants''em to come here with their trash? 5231 Who was going to stop her? |
5231 | Who was it, Ruby? |
5231 | Who would have to put up with it? 5231 Who''s dead?" |
5231 | Who''s throwing themselves into the gutter? 5231 Whoever wanted him to be put on? |
5231 | Whom else should I mean? 5231 Whose fault was that? |
5231 | Why ca n''t I regret him? 5231 Why ca n''t it be done?" |
5231 | Why ca n''t you do it? 5231 Why did he go with you to Lowestoft?" |
5231 | Why did he not bring it to you of his own accord? |
5231 | Why did he spend such a lot of money? |
5231 | Why did n''t he go, Lord Nidderdale? |
5231 | Why did not Sir Felix go? |
5231 | Why did you not take them? |
5231 | Why did you not tell me before? |
5231 | Why did you say that he was a-- butcher? |
5231 | Why do n''t he do it then? |
5231 | Why do n''t you come in, and not stand there? |
5231 | Why do n''t you go? 5231 Why do n''t you speak, then?" |
5231 | Why do you dare to tell me what I am to think? 5231 Why does he not come to me, or send to me; or let me know something? |
5231 | Why mention this now, Mr. Brehgert; why mention this now? 5231 Why not send for John Crumb?" |
5231 | Why not sign them? 5231 Why not to- night?" |
5231 | Why not welcome, and he all one as your husband? 5231 Why not, mother? |
5231 | Why not? 5231 Why not? |
5231 | Why not? 5231 Why not? |
5231 | Why not? 5231 Why not? |
5231 | Why not? 5231 Why not?" |
5231 | Why not? |
5231 | Why not? |
5231 | Why should Dolly marry such a creature as that? |
5231 | Why should I be angry? 5231 Why should I frighten her? |
5231 | Why should I have given my property up before I got my money? 5231 Why should I not mean it? |
5231 | Why should I object to that? 5231 Why should John Crumb beat Felix like that?" |
5231 | Why should a gentleman trouble himself to say any more,--than that he has changed his mind? 5231 Why should anybody beat him? |
5231 | Why should he go? 5231 Why should he not? |
5231 | Why should he? |
5231 | Why should it be robbery? 5231 Why should it not be suitable? |
5231 | Why should n''t I go to the Primeros? |
5231 | Why should n''t I have something to say to you? |
5231 | Why should n''t he like it? |
5231 | Why should n''t he love her as well as any one else? 5231 Why should n''t he''go a thou,''and get the difference?" |
5231 | Why should n''t they be as nice as anybody else? 5231 Why should n''t you be called upon?" |
5231 | Why should n''t you be good? |
5231 | Why should n''t you be one of them? |
5231 | Why should not the bishop like to meet him? 5231 Why should she lie to me? |
5231 | Why should we wait? |
5231 | Why should you be sorry? 5231 Why should you grudge me the opportunity?" |
5231 | Why should you say so? |
5231 | Why should you want to see Miss Melmotte? 5231 Why so, mamma?" |
5231 | Why will you not marry your cousin? |
5231 | Will any fellow come up- stairs and play a game of billiards? |
5231 | Will he be returned? |
5231 | Will he go to London next year? |
5231 | Will it be safe there? |
5231 | Will that be a penance? |
5231 | Will that be the best way? |
5231 | Will the bishop like to meet him? |
5231 | Will they never go up again? |
5231 | Will you do this now,--to save us all from ruin? |
5231 | Will you promise me? |
5231 | Will you sign the papers? |
5231 | Will you sign them now? |
5231 | Will you? |
5231 | Without even asking me? |
5231 | Wo n''t Mr. Grendall pay it? |
5231 | Wo n''t he rob you, old fellow? |
5231 | Wo n''t that be jolly? 5231 Wo n''t what, aunt?" |
5231 | Wo n''t your mother find out? |
5231 | Would he be better abroad than here? |
5231 | Would it not be better that you should leave her to become the wife of a man who is really fond of her? |
5231 | Would n''t it? |
5231 | Would ye now? |
5231 | Would you then object to inform me the amount and nature of the income on which you intend to support your establishment as a married man? 5231 Would you?" |
5231 | YOU KNOW WHY I HAVE COME DOWN HERE? |
5231 | Ye ai n''t a''found her, Mr. Ruggles, ha''ye? |
5231 | You ai n''t a meaning of it, master? |
5231 | You ai n''t a''taken it amiss, squoire,''cause he was coosin to yourself? |
5231 | You are going to risk it? |
5231 | You are not in a hurry? |
5231 | You are not plotting another journey to Liverpool;--are you? |
5231 | You are the manager here in England? |
5231 | You ca n''t have anything to say against it, miss; can you? 5231 You ca n''t help me?" |
5231 | You could n''t let me have a couple of hundred;--could you, sir? |
5231 | You could n''t speak to him, then? |
5231 | You could n''t take any interest in me? |
5231 | You did n''t ever go for to-- kiss her,--did you, Joe? |
5231 | You did not know that he was to come? |
5231 | You do care for me? |
5231 | You do n''t mean,--never? |
5231 | You do n''t suppose I wrote the letter? |
5231 | You do n''t suppose that I wish to snub you? |
5231 | You do n''t want me to sign the papers? |
5231 | You do n''t, do n''t you? 5231 You do not give him any?" |
5231 | You do not mean that Ruby has levanted? 5231 You do not think that it can have been very kind, do you? |
5231 | You do not think? |
5231 | You given up the''Pulpit''? 5231 You had n''t heard it?" |
5231 | You have canvassed me between you? |
5231 | You have got some? |
5231 | You have heard, I suppose, of our projected scheme? |
5231 | You have n''t frightened her? |
5231 | You have n''t sold any shares;--have you? |
5231 | You have n''t sold it? |
5231 | You have n''t taken the money for it? |
5231 | You have not been told about John Crumb? 5231 You have only one horse?" |
5231 | You have to back that with a certain amount of paid- up capital? |
5231 | You have told Mr. Montague that he is not to come here again? |
5231 | You have told her of your love? |
5231 | You have told the woman of the house? |
5231 | You have? |
5231 | You heard about Felix? |
5231 | You here? |
5231 | You know all about it then? |
5231 | You know that, do n''t you, ma''am? |
5231 | You know what has happened, Nidderdale? |
5231 | You know what has happened? |
5231 | You know what''s up now;--don''t you? |
5231 | You know why I have come down here? |
5231 | You mean about Felix,said Hetta,--"and mamma?" |
5231 | You mean about marrying? |
5231 | You mean to go on playing just the same? |
5231 | You means you wo n''t have him? |
5231 | You still believed him? |
5231 | You think I''d give my girl to a gambler? |
5231 | You think he has committed forgery? |
5231 | You think he should marry the girl then in spite of the father? |
5231 | You think him honest;--don''t you? |
5231 | You think it is all over with the Melmottes? |
5231 | You think the book has done pretty well? |
5231 | You thought my letter very short; did you not? |
5231 | You understand that; do n''t you? |
5231 | You went to the party, then? |
5231 | You will do that for old acquaintance sake? |
5231 | You will not exact any penance? |
5231 | You will not? |
5231 | You will speak to papa; wo n''t you? |
5231 | You will take me down, will you not? 5231 You would do evil to produce good?" |
5231 | You would n''t go on playing with him? |
5231 | You would n''t mind having it settled? |
5231 | You wrote to her? |
5231 | You''ll be there by that time? |
5231 | You''ll see everything safe, eh, Croll? |
5231 | You''ll see me as far as the Angel, wo n''t you? |
5231 | You''ll stick to it? |
5231 | You''ll try and get me the money, wo n''t you, Dolly? |
5231 | You''re going in for that, are you, sir? 5231 You''re going to spend the evening with me like a good man? |
5231 | You''re ready,--and willing? |
5231 | You''re surprised; are you not? |
5231 | You''re wishing to have the banns said without any more delay? |
5231 | You''ve asked Miss Ruby to be your wife a dozen times;--haven''t you, John? |
5231 | You''ve heard about it; have n''t you? |
5231 | You''ve heard of young Mr. Goldsheiner, have n''t you? |
5231 | Your aunt does not know? |
5231 | Your friend was hardly civil; was he, Paul? |
5231 | Your papa had a lawyer, I suppose? |
5231 | Your son will not join you in selling the other place? |
5231 | ''s for me to- morrow;--could you?" |
5231 | ''s more than sufficient to meet anything I could lose when I sat down?" |
5231 | A queen bred, born and married, and with such other queens around her, how could she have escaped to be guilty? |
5231 | After all, why should he be a dog in the manger? |
5231 | After having had the woman in his arms how could he undertake such inquiries as these? |
5231 | After that his voice changed altogether, as he asked a question on another subject,"Can I see Henrietta to- morrow?" |
5231 | After what you have heard, are the Melmottes people with whom you would wish to be connected?" |
5231 | Ah,--when would he summon courage to enter the club again? |
5231 | Ai n''t he fond o''you? |
5231 | Ai n''t he got a house of his own? |
5231 | Ai n''t he well to do all round? |
5231 | Alf?" |
5231 | Alf?" |
5231 | All that she had done, and all that she had borne,--all that she was doing and bearing,--was it not for his sake? |
5231 | Am I disgraced by that?" |
5231 | Am I not good to you? |
5231 | Am I not to think of my own son? |
5231 | Am I to be so weak as to tell you now what I would have you say? |
5231 | And I wonder whether you''d hate-- me?" |
5231 | And as for freedom, has not freedom grown, almost every year, from that to this?" |
5231 | And could n''t we have lodgings, so as to get away from Mr. Longestaffe''s house?" |
5231 | And did n''t I make''em do as I chose? |
5231 | And did you go to the play with her?" |
5231 | And how had it come to pass that she in all her tenderness had rejected him when he had given her the chance of becoming his wife? |
5231 | And how is a man to catch a quarter of an hour? |
5231 | And how was it possible that he should have such belief? |
5231 | And how was this to be done? |
5231 | And how would the thing go if at the last moment the Emperor should be kept away? |
5231 | And if I speak, what am I to say? |
5231 | And if he had been against us would he not have said so? |
5231 | And if she did, what matters? |
5231 | And if so,--then why should he be any longer gracious to Melmotte? |
5231 | And if their day for plunder had not yet come, why had Lord Alfred''s? |
5231 | And if there was so much cause to fear Lord Alfred that it was necessary to throw him a bone, why should not they also make themselves feared? |
5231 | And if, while this was a- doing, Felix would run away with Marie, could not forgiveness be made easy? |
5231 | And it was along wi''the baro- nite she went?" |
5231 | And might it not be possible that she had pressed him too hard? |
5231 | And now how should he dispose of his time before he went? |
5231 | And now where are you? |
5231 | And now, sir, what else is there? |
5231 | And of what use could it be to talk to a young man who was altogether callous and without feeling? |
5231 | And she is an American?" |
5231 | And that if I wanted anything you''d get it done for me;--didn''t you?" |
5231 | And then as to their great Chairman, did not everybody know, in spite of all the duchesses, that Mr. Melmotte was a gigantic swindler? |
5231 | And then how am I to know my own feelings so suddenly? |
5231 | And they have made you believe I suppose that I have failed in getting back my property?" |
5231 | And were there not policemen in London? |
5231 | And what did her father and mother expect would become of her? |
5231 | And what is it now?" |
5231 | And what may you want? |
5231 | And what must you be, to be here, in public, with such a one as she is? |
5231 | And what was he to gain by it? |
5231 | And what were they saying about Pickering? |
5231 | And what would become of me when Dolly was master of everything?" |
5231 | And what would it matter to you? |
5231 | And what would then be left to her in life? |
5231 | And what''d a grand gentleman see in Ruby to marry her? |
5231 | And who am I with? |
5231 | And who is that in the violet dress;--with all the pearls?" |
5231 | And who knows but that this may be another"Robinson Crusoe,"--a better than"Tom Jones"? |
5231 | And why have n''t you written me something and sent it to Didon? |
5231 | And why not?" |
5231 | And why should Carbury be there? |
5231 | And yet did not her present acts justify him in thinking that she was carrying on a plot against him? |
5231 | And yet how should he continue the struggle? |
5231 | And you are going home to- morrow?" |
5231 | And you have come because you love me; eh, Ruby? |
5231 | And you told me you loved me;--didn''t you? |
5231 | And, Felix;--what do you think? |
5231 | And, Roger;--what is to be done about Hetta?" |
5231 | And, heaven and earth, why should old Grendall be a Director? |
5231 | And, if so, why should n''t he write and make his excuses? |
5231 | And, indeed, to what clime could such a bird as he fly in safety? |
5231 | And, now, who was to introduce him to the House? |
5231 | And-- and--""Where should a Carbury go to escape from London smoke, but to the old house? |
5231 | Annihilate himself as far as all personal happiness in the world was concerned, and look solely to their happiness, their prosperity, and their joys? |
5231 | Are they here in this house, or in Grosvenor Square?" |
5231 | Are you a liar?" |
5231 | Are you always to be a burden on me and your sister? |
5231 | Are you going back to Lowestoft?" |
5231 | Are you going to dine here?" |
5231 | Are you going to see me home?" |
5231 | Are you sure he does not love me?" |
5231 | As for comfort, when were we ever comfortable? |
5231 | As it was so, could it be fit that she should marry another man? |
5231 | As to danger;--who could think of danger in reference to money intrusted to the hands of Augustus Melmotte? |
5231 | As to my knowledge of you and your affairs, if I think it sufficient, need you complain? |
5231 | As to not coveting,--how is a man to cease to covet that which he has always coveted? |
5231 | At ten o''clock he found his mother and Hetta in Welbeck Street--"What; Felix?" |
5231 | Aunt Pipkin was n''t even an aunt; but who was Mrs. Hurtle? |
5231 | Barham?" |
5231 | Be I to say, sir, as you was here?" |
5231 | Be as it were a beneficent old fairy to them, though the agony of his own disappointment should never depart from him? |
5231 | Because money is given for a pious object of which you do not happen to approve, must it be a dodge?" |
5231 | Besides, what does it all amount to? |
5231 | Bideawhile?" |
5231 | Brehgert?" |
5231 | Brehgert?" |
5231 | Buggins?" |
5231 | But I feared,--""Feared what, Lady Carbury?" |
5231 | But coming on you by accident, as I did, how am I not to speak to you? |
5231 | But did he say that I was to be told that he did not love me?" |
5231 | But did they tell you also that it was thus alone that I could save myself,--and that had I spared him, I must afterwards have destroyed myself? |
5231 | But do n''t you think that kind of thing is a little slow?" |
5231 | But even if he had spent the money, why was he not man enough to come and say so? |
5231 | But he''s heir to a place down in Suffolk;--eh?" |
5231 | But how about she and the Baro- nite?" |
5231 | But how could she be guided by a lover whom she did not love? |
5231 | But how did he get it before you? |
5231 | But how different were the existing facts? |
5231 | But how is a man to give sufficient thought to his affairs when no step that he takes can be other than ruinous? |
5231 | But how is she, poor thing, to talk to royal blood?" |
5231 | But how then would it be with poor Felix? |
5231 | But how was he to tell the facts? |
5231 | But how was she to find out whether it was true? |
5231 | But how was this to go on? |
5231 | But if a woman finds that men only take advantage of her assumed weakness, shall she not throw it off? |
5231 | But if, with all this, Roger could not prevail, why should he not try? |
5231 | But immersed as she was here at Caversham, how could she strike at all? |
5231 | But it wo n''t do to go on like that, you know,--will it? |
5231 | But it''s all over?" |
5231 | But of all my friends--""Am I among the number, Miss Carbury?" |
5231 | But of what avail were such regrets as these? |
5231 | But oh, Hetta;--what am I to do with him? |
5231 | But should n''t we stay till something has been done here? |
5231 | But then how could he do this without a belief in the railway generally? |
5231 | But then if he did not play with him, where should he find another gambling table? |
5231 | But then if she wrote the letter there would be no retreat,--and how should she face her family after such a declaration? |
5231 | But then might it not be possible that if he presented the cheque himself he might be arrested for stealing Melmotte''s money? |
5231 | But then, might not that only be a threat? |
5231 | But then, perhaps, you know, if you or I were in China we should n''t have much to say for ourselves;--eh?" |
5231 | But then,--as she had asked,--why should not a divorce for the purpose in hand be considered as good as a death? |
5231 | But was that to be sufficient for him,--so that he might now feel inwardly satisfied at leaving her, and make no further inquiry as to her fate? |
5231 | But what am I to do? |
5231 | But what amount of brandy and water would have enabled him to persevere, could he have dreamed that John Crumb was near him? |
5231 | But what chance was there of success for him? |
5231 | But what compensation can be given, or what retribution can you exact? |
5231 | But what could I do?" |
5231 | But what could he do? |
5231 | But what fewest number of words might be supposed sufficient to fill a page? |
5231 | But what good can I do them? |
5231 | But what harm could the telling of such a secret do him? |
5231 | But what hope could there be for him if he should take to drink? |
5231 | But what is it, Mr. Beauclerk? |
5231 | But what is to be the end of it? |
5231 | But what matters? |
5231 | But what of him?" |
5231 | But what of that? |
5231 | But what should he do now? |
5231 | But what should he do? |
5231 | But what vengeance was possible to her? |
5231 | But what was he to do now? |
5231 | But what was she that a man should give up everything and go away and spend his days in some half- barbarous country for her alone? |
5231 | But what was she to do with herself? |
5231 | But what was she to do? |
5231 | But what was to be done in reference to poor Roger? |
5231 | But what was to come next? |
5231 | But what''ll I do, if everybody turns again me? |
5231 | But when a woman has no one to help her, is she to bear everything without turning upon those who ill- use her? |
5231 | But when she did come, was he to have refused to see her? |
5231 | But when the evening should be over, how would he part with her? |
5231 | But when will you be married?" |
5231 | But where am I to go for happiness and joy? |
5231 | But where was he to turn, and what was he to do with himself? |
5231 | But who were to be the two hundred? |
5231 | But who would run away with her without money? |
5231 | But why had he, so unrighteous himself, not made friends to himself of the Mammon of unrighteousness? |
5231 | But why should his friend be a dog in the manger? |
5231 | But why should n''t we as well as the others?" |
5231 | But why was Mr. Booker there? |
5231 | But would it not be equally a matter of course that he should make the best of the marriage if it were once effected? |
5231 | But would it not be right that it should be told? |
5231 | But you will go from me to her, and then will you not be happy? |
5231 | But, Lord love''ee, she shall come and be missus of my house to- morrow, and what''ll it matter her then what they say? |
5231 | But, after what had occurred, was I to refuse to see her when she came to England to see me? |
5231 | But, if he acknowledged this,--and he did acknowledge it,--in what fashion should he in future treat the man and woman who had reduced him so low? |
5231 | But, mamma, what does it matter? |
5231 | But, squoire,--did ye hear if the Baro- nite had been a''hanging about that place?" |
5231 | But,--if he does n''t love me, what am I to do then?" |
5231 | But-- isn''t it a story that-- concerns me?" |
5231 | By- the- bye, is he a friend of yours?" |
5231 | Ca n''t we make a match of it, Miss Melmotte?" |
5231 | Ca n''t you understand, now, how important it may be?" |
5231 | Ca n''t you wait till I am ready to say something?" |
5231 | Can I see Henrietta for a few minutes?" |
5231 | Can anybody who pleases walk into my hall?" |
5231 | Can it be so? |
5231 | Can not you sympathize with my anxiety so to place him that he shall not be a disgrace to the name and to the family?" |
5231 | Can not you understand that when she came here, following me, I could not desert her?" |
5231 | Can you be surprised that I should be always thinking of my lover? |
5231 | Can you let me have the money?" |
5231 | Can you understand what it is to have to live only on retrospects?" |
5231 | Can you wonder that I want to have a friend? |
5231 | Carbury?" |
5231 | Carbury?" |
5231 | Carbury?" |
5231 | Could any mere letter of your writing break the bond by which we were bound together? |
5231 | Could anything be so false, so weak, so malignant, so useless, so wicked, so self- condemned,--in fact, so"Liberal"as a course of action such as this? |
5231 | Could anything betray so bad a cause as contradictions such as these? |
5231 | Could he get at the truth of that story? |
5231 | Could he pass on and let her be as the wine that has been drunk,--as the hour that has been enjoyed,--as the day that is past? |
5231 | Could he, by any training, bring himself to take her happiness in hand, altogether sacrificing his own? |
5231 | Could it be possible that he and John Crumb were of the same order of human beings? |
5231 | Could it be possible that the man did not know that all the world was united in accusing him of forgery? |
5231 | Could it be right that she should marry at all, for the sake of doing good to her family? |
5231 | Could it be right that she should marry one man when she loved another? |
5231 | Could it be that now at last real peace should be within her reach, and that tranquillity which comes from an anchor holding to a firm bottom? |
5231 | Could it be that she would never see him again;--that she would dance no more in that gilded bright saloon? |
5231 | Could it be true that his constancy was such that he would never marry unless she would take his hand? |
5231 | Could it really be that she meant to leave his house in anger and to take her daughter with her? |
5231 | Could n''t he draw it a little milder?" |
5231 | Could she really have thought that he was attending to his own possible future interests when he warned her as to the making of new acquaintances? |
5231 | Croll?" |
5231 | Crumb?" |
5231 | Crumb?" |
5231 | Crumb?" |
5231 | Crumb?" |
5231 | D''ye think she''s see''d the Baro- nite since she''s been in Lon''on, Muster Carbury?" |
5231 | D''ye think, ma''am, it''s the dancing she''s after, or the baro- nite?" |
5231 | D''you think we''re all going to smash there because a fool like Melmotte blows his brains out in London?" |
5231 | DEAREST FELIX, Why do n''t we see you? |
5231 | Did Croll know of these rumours, and if so, what did he think of them? |
5231 | Did I conceal from you the character of my former husband? |
5231 | Did I ever interfere wi''him? |
5231 | Did I ever make you a gift of it?" |
5231 | Did I ever refuse to answer you? |
5231 | Did I not conquer you, sir, by being gentle and gracious to you? |
5231 | Did I not tell you that he was a drunkard and a scoundrel? |
5231 | Did I? |
5231 | Did I?" |
5231 | Did Julia Triplex love that man with the large fortune? |
5231 | Did Mr. Longestaffe want to see Mr. Melmotte? |
5231 | Did any of the Carburys send you here? |
5231 | Did anybody mean to take her up for stealing anybody''s money? |
5231 | Did he do anything?" |
5231 | Did he mean to deny that he had promised to marry her? |
5231 | Did he mean to marry Ruby? |
5231 | Did he never love me,--once?" |
5231 | Did he not promise, mamma?" |
5231 | Did it matter much that Brehgert and Croll both knew the crime which he had committed? |
5231 | Did n''t I make him go on my business? |
5231 | Did n''t I teach''em a lesson to- night,--eh? |
5231 | Did n''t he lie in bed on Sunday instead of going to church?" |
5231 | Did n''t he throw his cigar on the path? |
5231 | Did n''t she have no dinner here?" |
5231 | Did n''t ye give him a promise?" |
5231 | Did n''t you say so as plain as the nose on my face?" |
5231 | Did n''t you think so at Caversham? |
5231 | Did she go?" |
5231 | Did you ever hear of such a thing;--the very house pulled down;--my house; and all done without a word from me in the matter? |
5231 | Did you get your business done at Liverpool?" |
5231 | Did you have any adventures?" |
5231 | Did you not see it, mamma? |
5231 | Do I not deserve some thanks for what I did? |
5231 | Do I not try to be a comfort to you?" |
5231 | Do n''t you know whether he does love me? |
5231 | Do n''t you remember the blowsy fat woman at the top of the stairs;--a regular horror?" |
5231 | Do n''t you think it very nice, Lady Carbury?" |
5231 | Do n''t you think that if a girl loves a man,--really loves him,--that ought to go before everything?" |
5231 | Do n''t you think we might fix a day, Marie?" |
5231 | Do n''t''e smell it?" |
5231 | Do not you think he ought to send me word?" |
5231 | Do they pay anything?" |
5231 | Do they say here that he is not honest?" |
5231 | Do you doubt me?" |
5231 | Do you ever read the Bible, Carbury?" |
5231 | Do you know Mrs. Hurtle, sir?" |
5231 | Do you know him? |
5231 | Do you live in London, ma''am?" |
5231 | Do you mean money? |
5231 | Do you mean money? |
5231 | Do you mean to give them that?" |
5231 | Do you mean to marry her?" |
5231 | Do you not love me?" |
5231 | Do you not suppose that in thinking of you I have often thought of daggers? |
5231 | Do you not wish for, nay, almost demand, instant pardon for any trespass that you may commit,--of temper, or manner, for instance? |
5231 | Do you purpose that your mother should keep you and clothe you for the rest of your life?" |
5231 | Do you really in your heart believe that he means to come back to you?" |
5231 | Do you recollect telling me about that blue scarf of mine, that I should never wear blue?" |
5231 | Do you remember how urgent were once your own prayers to me;--how you swore that your happiness could only be secured by one word of mine? |
5231 | Do you see much of what you call love around you? |
5231 | Do you suppose that the sight of that dying wretch does not haunt me? |
5231 | Do you think Fisker''d ask me to marry him if I had n''t got anything? |
5231 | Do you think Melmotte''s all right?" |
5231 | Do you think he asked her?" |
5231 | Do you think he would be wrong?" |
5231 | Do you think he''d injure you if he could? |
5231 | Do you understand?" |
5231 | Do you want a little money?" |
5231 | Do you wish to be looked upon as a blackguard by all the world?" |
5231 | Do your people really go to Southend and fancy that that is the sea?" |
5231 | Does anybody know anything of that fellow Melmotte?" |
5231 | Does he go every day?" |
5231 | Does he love me, Miss Carbury? |
5231 | Does he mean me to live here for ever and ever?" |
5231 | Does he say so? |
5231 | Does not every one know that a director of a company need not direct unless he pleases? |
5231 | Does not the law make a woman free here to marry again,--and why not with us? |
5231 | Does she think that you intend to marry her?" |
5231 | Does she?" |
5231 | Does that girl mean to marry Lord Nidderdale?" |
5231 | Eh?" |
5231 | Everybody goes out of town at Whitsuntide; and why should n''t we run down to the family place?" |
5231 | Felix is handsome; is n''t he? |
5231 | Felix, will you come?" |
5231 | Felix, you love me;--do you not?" |
5231 | Fisker?" |
5231 | Fisker?" |
5231 | Fisker?" |
5231 | Fisker?" |
5231 | For what purpose would you have it? |
5231 | Grendall was a big man; and where would he be if there should be no card there? |
5231 | Grendall?" |
5231 | Had Mr. Longestaffe seen the"Morning Breakfast Table"? |
5231 | Had Paul so talked about her that this young scamp should know all her story? |
5231 | Had he not allowed himself to be terrified by shadows? |
5231 | Had he not paid his subscription in advance? |
5231 | Had not her whole life been opposed to the theory of such passive endurance? |
5231 | Had not she herself found that all men liked their own way? |
5231 | Had not the distance between us seemed to have made you safe would you have dared to write that letter? |
5231 | Had she not always been dominant over her mother and sister? |
5231 | Had you a lot of ready money with you to pay if you had lost it? |
5231 | Had you not better speak to me openly?" |
5231 | Had you told him you were to be here?" |
5231 | Half past eleven; is it? |
5231 | Has Miss Carbury pardoned you as yet? |
5231 | Has Roger told you?" |
5231 | Has he any money beyond what you give him?" |
5231 | Has he authority over you?" |
5231 | Has he gone down to Carbury?" |
5231 | Has he said that he got it by-- playing?" |
5231 | Has she forgiven your sins?" |
5231 | Has she gone with any one?" |
5231 | Has she money?--or rank? |
5231 | Has she no regard for her own character?" |
5231 | Has your mother spoken to you about your jewels? |
5231 | Has your son told you anything about money?" |
5231 | Have I been able to love? |
5231 | Have I been uncivil that you should treat me in this fashion?" |
5231 | Have I usually said bitter things to you? |
5231 | Have n''t you got a home to live in, and clothes to wear, and a carriage to go about in,--and books to read if you choose to read them? |
5231 | Have n''t you? |
5231 | Have you a word to say to comfort me?" |
5231 | Have you asked yourself that? |
5231 | Have you given a promise to this lady also?" |
5231 | Have you heard any sum named, sir?" |
5231 | Have you no feeling that you ought to choose your friends for certain reasons of your own? |
5231 | Have you no idea of disgrace?" |
5231 | Have you seen Sir Felix Carbury since you''ve been in town?" |
5231 | Have you seen the Lord Mayor?" |
5231 | Have you told him that you will see him no more?" |
5231 | Have you written to your mother?" |
5231 | He could not now go to Roger Carbury for advice; for was not Roger Carbury his rival? |
5231 | He could not say that she had not washed herself clean;--and yet, from the story as told by herself, what man would wish to marry her? |
5231 | He had thrashed his rival, and what cause could there now be for delay? |
5231 | He has been here, and I have told him--""You have not accepted him?" |
5231 | He is a great man;--a Frenchman, is he not? |
5231 | He is awfully rich, is n''t he?" |
5231 | He is handsome; is n''t he? |
5231 | He might have done better; but how many young men placed in such temptations do well? |
5231 | He was here, I suppose?" |
5231 | How am I to get at you if I want anything?" |
5231 | How am I to know what he does? |
5231 | How am I to know what you are really after?" |
5231 | How am I to see anybody down here in this horrid hole? |
5231 | How are things going on here?" |
5231 | How are we to stay? |
5231 | How can I make that?" |
5231 | How can you say such hard words? |
5231 | How can you suppose that I shall give my girl to you?" |
5231 | How could I have known?" |
5231 | How could I refuse such a prospect as you offer me without much thought? |
5231 | How could Sir Felix tell the truth about that rash encounter? |
5231 | How could a conscientious Editor of a"Morning Breakfast Table,"seeing how things were going, do other than support Mr. Melmotte? |
5231 | How could a man so great endure a partnership with one so small as Paul Montague? |
5231 | How could he be justified in whispering suspicions to the man who was known to be at any rate one of the competitors for Marie Melmotte''s hand? |
5231 | How could he kiss his future bride, with his nose bound up with a bandage? |
5231 | How could it have been otherwise? |
5231 | How could she believe him? |
5231 | How could she not quarrel with him? |
5231 | How could she refrain from telling him that everything must be over between them? |
5231 | How did a fellow manage before, if he had n''t got it?" |
5231 | How did he die?" |
5231 | How did you dare to kiss me, knowing that it was on your tongue to tell me I was to be cast aside? |
5231 | How did you get home? |
5231 | How do you like it?" |
5231 | How do you mean to live if you do n''t marry this girl?" |
5231 | How do you think it would be with Felix Carbury, if they two were in a room together and nobody else by?" |
5231 | How else should he have it? |
5231 | How else?" |
5231 | How is a fellow to know? |
5231 | How is a man of your age to speak with certainty of what he will do or what he will not do in that respect? |
5231 | How is a man who sits in parliament himself ever to pretend to discuss the doings of parliament with impartiality? |
5231 | How is a person to resolve? |
5231 | How is a young woman to put up with that? |
5231 | How is any fellow to stand that kind of thing? |
5231 | How is it possible you should marry him? |
5231 | How is your son? |
5231 | How long, do you think, should a man be known in this city before that title be accorded to him? |
5231 | How much has Lord Alfred put into it?" |
5231 | How often before I consented?" |
5231 | How ought she to behave herself? |
5231 | How should I dislike people that I never saw? |
5231 | How should I like it? |
5231 | How should I not quarrel with such a one? |
5231 | How should I?" |
5231 | How should any one know anything from a liar? |
5231 | How should it have been so with her? |
5231 | How should you like to be shut up down at Caversham all the season?" |
5231 | How so?" |
5231 | How soon might he want it again? |
5231 | How the devil should he?" |
5231 | How then could he yield? |
5231 | How was I not to tell him when he asked me whether I-- loved him?" |
5231 | How was I to love you when I had seen so little of you? |
5231 | How was any girl to live in this world who could not be taught the folly of such idle dreams? |
5231 | How was he now to back out of his intimacy with the Melmottes generally? |
5231 | How was it that he-- died?" |
5231 | How was she to tell him that the cup of water never could have touched his lips? |
5231 | How would he pay, were he to lose?" |
5231 | How would her future life go with her, should she now make up her mind to retire from the proposed alliance? |
5231 | How would it affect Felix and her together,--and Mr. Broune as connected with her and Felix? |
5231 | How would the brother of the Sun like the remembrance of the banquet which he had been instructed to honour with his presence? |
5231 | How would things go with him?--What would be the end of it? |
5231 | How would this new life suit him? |
5231 | How would you like it if I said that Sir Damask was like a hair- dresser?" |
5231 | How would you like to be in some place where they would n''t let you move?" |
5231 | Hurtle?" |
5231 | Hurtle?" |
5231 | Hurtle?" |
5231 | Hurtle?" |
5231 | Hurtle?" |
5231 | Hurtle?" |
5231 | I fear it will be rather bad for you;--won''t it?" |
5231 | I have striven so hard to be proper; but when girls read everything, why should not an old woman write anything? |
5231 | I may call you Felix now;--mayn''t I?" |
5231 | I suppose I''d better be down at the committee- room about ten to- morrow?" |
5231 | I suppose he is on very intimate terms with you?" |
5231 | I suppose the whole thing is over?" |
5231 | I suppose there is a bishop, is n''t there, Alfred?" |
5231 | I suppose you have some money?" |
5231 | I thought you hated the Melmottes?" |
5231 | I wo n''t agree to that;--would you?" |
5231 | I wonder whether it''ll be the same with you?" |
5231 | I wonder whether you are glad to see me?" |
5231 | I wonder whether you can let me have twenty pounds?" |
5231 | I''ve never been above telling you what a godsend you''ve been to me this summer;--have I? |
5231 | If I can dare to do it, why ca n''t he?" |
5231 | If I can venture, can not he?" |
5231 | If I did n''t love you why should I be here walking round this stupid place? |
5231 | If I do n''t marry what''s to become of me? |
5231 | If I was to twist his neck, ma''am, would you take it on yourself to say as I was wrong?" |
5231 | If I was to wring his neck round, you would n''t say as how I was wrong; would ye, now?" |
5231 | If I were wrong, why did they not try me for his murder? |
5231 | If I write to him you will believe what he says?" |
5231 | If I''m to belong to you what does it matter? |
5231 | If Lord Alfred Grendall was entitled to plunder, why were not they? |
5231 | If Melmotte and Alf could be brought together what might they not do? |
5231 | If Melmotte were so great a man why did n''t he pay the money, and why should he have mortgaged the property before it was really his own? |
5231 | If Paul Montague has robbed me of my love--?" |
5231 | If Sir Felix did not appear again, what should she do? |
5231 | If any fellow writes D. Longestaffe, am I obliged to pay it? |
5231 | If as you say it will not have any lasting effect, could you not manage to have a house in town? |
5231 | If he and she could be together in some country in which those stories of her past life would be matter of indifference, could she not make him happy? |
5231 | If he wants to save money why does n''t he shut Caversham up altogether and go abroad? |
5231 | If it has been so, who is to blame him?" |
5231 | If it was only dinner, would n''t she be back afore this, ma''am?" |
5231 | If one has to be hung on a given day, would it not be well to be hung as soon after waking as possible? |
5231 | If papa has n''t got money to live at home, why does n''t he go abroad for a year? |
5231 | If she be treated as prey, shall she not fight as a beast of prey? |
5231 | If she could contrive to throw herself out of the carriage and to be killed,--would not that be the best termination to her present disappointment? |
5231 | If she did not defend him, who would? |
5231 | If the duchesses condoned it all, did it become her to be prudish? |
5231 | If the lover was what he ought to be, had he not better come and see her? |
5231 | If there was not much in it, if such a man as Miles Grendall could cheat at cards and be brought to no punishment, why should not he try it? |
5231 | If this other man is a villain am I not bound to protect you? |
5231 | If this should not succeed, what are you to do? |
5231 | If we are to remain here at Caversham, how am I to hope ever to get settled?" |
5231 | If you give your cloak to him who steals your coat, how long will it be before your shirt and trousers will go also? |
5231 | If you turn up your nose at one woman after another how do you mean to live?" |
5231 | If you were once married to John Crumb, would any one then pull you by the hairs of your head? |
5231 | If you will not trust me, how am I to live with you as though you did? |
5231 | If you would wish to dance why wo n''t you dance with me?" |
5231 | If you''ll write that letter here now--""What;--to Marie?" |
5231 | In what little you see around you do you think that girls are generally able to marry the men upon whom they set their hearts?" |
5231 | In what shape will he bring it? |
5231 | In what words was he to answer such a letter? |
5231 | Is Cromer pretty?" |
5231 | Is a girl to be debarred from being loved because she has money? |
5231 | Is any one going with you?" |
5231 | Is he not engaged to the woman?" |
5231 | Is he not to be dearer to me than any one? |
5231 | Is he to be allowed to ruin you, and Hetta? |
5231 | Is it about my money? |
5231 | Is it all to be over then? |
5231 | Is it because I protected myself from drunken violence that I am to be rejected? |
5231 | Is it because they are none of them coming up?" |
5231 | Is it not enough to drive me mad to be going about here by myself, without any prospect of anything? |
5231 | Is it not so? |
5231 | Is it not so? |
5231 | Is it not so?" |
5231 | Is it not so?" |
5231 | Is it not true that he is even now living with an American woman whom he has promised to marry?" |
5231 | Is it so? |
5231 | Is it true that he has promised to marry her? |
5231 | Is it true they are going to have him before the Lord Mayor about the Pickering title- deeds?" |
5231 | Is n''t that a grand idea, Roger?" |
5231 | Is n''t that strange? |
5231 | Is not that about it?" |
5231 | Is not that it? |
5231 | Is not that it?" |
5231 | Is not that mean?" |
5231 | Is not that odd? |
5231 | Is she really fond of you? |
5231 | Is she very partial, ma''am, to that young baro- nite?" |
5231 | Is that Prince Frederic, who told you about the hay? |
5231 | Is that brandy you''re drinking, Nidderdale? |
5231 | Is that so?" |
5231 | Is that sufficient reason for you to go to a man''s house? |
5231 | Is that unnatural? |
5231 | Is there an hotel?" |
5231 | Is there another woman that you love?" |
5231 | Is there anything said there which the usage to which I have been subjected does not justify?" |
5231 | Is there no other place,--except Southend?" |
5231 | Is there no subject in the world to interest you except that wretched young man?" |
5231 | Is there not another place to which we are told that a great many are going, simply because the road has become thronged and fashionable? |
5231 | Is there nothing else?" |
5231 | Is this the man to be Conservative member for Westminster?" |
5231 | Is your friend going to do us the honour of coming to us to- morrow night?" |
5231 | It is a poor time we women have,--is it not,--in becoming playthings to men? |
5231 | It is cruel, is it not? |
5231 | It is n''t right; is it, ma''am? |
5231 | It looks very odd; does it not?" |
5231 | It may be as you say, but how is one to tell? |
5231 | It may be that you do not believe me now; but if so, are you not bound to go where you can verify your own doubts or my word? |
5231 | It was a bad thing to do;--wasn''t it, Ruby?" |
5231 | It will be so, and why should not Felix have the advantage?" |
5231 | It''s a great institution; is n''t it?" |
5231 | It''s all very well saying that it is n''t right, but what are we to do about Alfred''s children? |
5231 | Leadham?" |
5231 | Leadham?" |
5231 | Let me see,--what is the name?" |
5231 | Look here;--will you have this back?" |
5231 | May I be permitted to ask whether-- you have any business with my daughter?" |
5231 | May I bring him if I can?" |
5231 | May I not ask you to lay aside your veil, so that we may look at each other fairly?" |
5231 | Melmotte could support the whole family in affluence without feeling the burden;--and why should he not? |
5231 | Melmotte has promised to pay the money on Friday, has he?" |
5231 | Melmotte waited awhile, then looked round again, and asked the question in another shape:"Has n''t there been some mistake about the numbers? |
5231 | Melmotte?" |
5231 | Melmotte?" |
5231 | Melmotte?" |
5231 | Melmotte?" |
5231 | Melmotte?" |
5231 | Melmotte?" |
5231 | Might he not be persuaded to do one act of real friendship? |
5231 | Might it not be that the fact that these great ones of the earth had been his guests should speak in his favour? |
5231 | Might it still be possible that a plain tale sent by post should have sufficient efficacy? |
5231 | Miles, is n''t Mr. Goldsheiner waiting to see me?" |
5231 | Montague?" |
5231 | Montague?" |
5231 | Montague?" |
5231 | Montague?" |
5231 | Montague?" |
5231 | Montague?" |
5231 | Mr. Melmotte had no doubt endeavoured to catch this and that lord; but, failing a lord, why should he not content himself with a baronet? |
5231 | Never?" |
5231 | Now tell me;--what can I do, or what can I say?" |
5231 | Now the Lord Mayor had set his face against it, and what was to be done? |
5231 | Now, Mr. Montague, what can I do for you?" |
5231 | Now, at last, should she succumb and be trodden on like a worm? |
5231 | Of course she looks to be married, and why should she not have Felix if she likes him best? |
5231 | Of course sooner or later some man must come with a thunderbolt,--and why not Croll as well as another? |
5231 | Of course you will be married at Carbury?" |
5231 | Of what nature could be a Company which should have itself directed by such men as Lord Alfred Grendall and Sir Felix Carbury? |
5231 | Oh, Felix, how will it be if he does not forgive her?" |
5231 | Oh, Hetta, what am I to do? |
5231 | Oh, heavens;--was Mr. Brehgert with his two houses worth all this? |
5231 | Oh, mamma, how can you propose it? |
5231 | Oh, papa, why did n''t you let me marry that other man?" |
5231 | Oh; this is Abchurch Lane, is it? |
5231 | Oh;--I was proposing that you should go out to Pekin?" |
5231 | On what principle of justice could Sir Felix come between him and another man? |
5231 | On whose arm could she lean for some support at this terrible time? |
5231 | Only, who''s to bell the cat?" |
5231 | Or am I to understand that you suppose yourself to have said all that is required of you? |
5231 | Or are you so ashamed of it, that the words stick in your throat?" |
5231 | Or is it that you are afraid to have by your side a woman who can speak for herself,--and even act for herself if some action be necessary? |
5231 | Papa, is there something going to happen?" |
5231 | Paul, you are in some degree responsible,--are you not,--for my loneliness?" |
5231 | Perhaps you had better see him yourself; or would your mother? |
5231 | Pipkin?" |
5231 | Pipkin?" |
5231 | Pipkin?" |
5231 | Pipkin?" |
5231 | Please, sir, is Sir Felix still in London?" |
5231 | Roger, is he unworthy?" |
5231 | Shall I tell him as I''m with you?" |
5231 | Shall I tell you what I think? |
5231 | Shall a woman be flayed alive because it is unfeminine in her to fight for her own skin? |
5231 | Shall you tell Madame Melmotte?" |
5231 | She had been the same to him as a child, and what would people say of him if he allowed her to depart from him after this fashion? |
5231 | She had forgiven him, and what more was there to be said? |
5231 | She must come some time, must n''t she?" |
5231 | She would have preferred not to have been kissed;--but what did it matter? |
5231 | She would have to encounter an enraged father; and when,--when should she see her lover again? |
5231 | Should he abandon Marie Melmotte altogether, never go to Grosvenor Square again, and drop the whole family, including the Great Mexican Railway? |
5231 | Should he do this, and be blessed by them,--or should he let Paul Montague know what deep resentment such ingratitude could produce? |
5231 | Should he not rush down to Liverpool, and ask a few more questions of Mr. Ramsbottom? |
5231 | Should he still make the journey? |
5231 | Should he tell his mother that he was going? |
5231 | Should she be weaker even than an English girl? |
5231 | Should she meet him at the railway station? |
5231 | Should she never know rest;--never have one draught of cool water between her lips? |
5231 | Should she take Mr. Alf into her entire confidence? |
5231 | Should you have liked at my age to have felt that you had no chance of having a house of your own to live in? |
5231 | So John Crumb''s afraid of bogies;--is he? |
5231 | So she has given you a promise?" |
5231 | Stoopid, is it? |
5231 | TWENTY POUNDS?" |
5231 | Tell me,--you must know,--does he really care for me?" |
5231 | Tell me;--did he tell you to say that he did not love me?" |
5231 | Tell me;--is there any reason why he should not also have my hand?" |
5231 | That is to be all, and you think that fair? |
5231 | That suits your own mind, and leaves no sore spot in your heart? |
5231 | That''ll be a poke in the ribs for the old boy;--eh, Croll?" |
5231 | The chief thing will be a cheque for the expenses; eh? |
5231 | The dinner went off pretty well yesterday, eh?" |
5231 | The letter was as follows:-- MY DEAR FATHER,-- Can it be true that Georgey is thinking of marrying that horrid vulgar Jew, old Brehgert? |
5231 | The long and the short of it is this;--if I give up my engagement, will he take us abroad for a year?" |
5231 | The thing is;--will it last?" |
5231 | The time must come, and why not now as well as at any future moment? |
5231 | Then I must give him up? |
5231 | Then what should be the name of her novel; what the name of her hero; and above all what the name of her heroine? |
5231 | Then when a panic comes, do n''t you see how it hits?" |
5231 | Then, directly it''s done, and when we get to New York, we''ll telegraph and write to papa, and we''ll be ever so penitent and good; wo n''t we? |
5231 | Then, would it not be best that he should take the Chairman''s offer as to his own money? |
5231 | There is such a woman?" |
5231 | There was n''t any noise about it;--was there?" |
5231 | There''s nothing else for it; is there, Squercum?" |
5231 | They could never be married now;--could they, mamma?" |
5231 | Though she could not be made happy in England, might not a prosperous life be opened for him in the far West? |
5231 | Though they should put him on his trial for forgery, what of that? |
5231 | To prove my weakness? |
5231 | Vy did the Lord Mayor stay away, Melmotte?" |
5231 | WHICH SHALL IT BE? |
5231 | WHICH SHALL IT BE? |
5231 | Was I not bound to go to her?" |
5231 | Was I not justified? |
5231 | Was he not Mr. Longestaffe of Caversham, a Deputy- Lieutenant of his County, and accustomed to lunch punctually at two o''clock? |
5231 | Was he not a baronet, and a gentleman, and a very handsome fellow, and a man of the world who had been in a crack regiment? |
5231 | Was he not the man who, at his own cost, had entertained the Emperor of China? |
5231 | Was he to do nothing for her now? |
5231 | Was it because he had praised the Prime Minister''s translation of Catullus? |
5231 | Was it not a career enough for any woman to be the wife of such a man, to receive his friends, and to shine with his reflected glory? |
5231 | Was it not her own father? |
5231 | Was it not his duty, as a man, to tell everything to herself? |
5231 | Was it not marvellous that such a thing should be? |
5231 | Was it not so?" |
5231 | Was it thus that he was to part with the one human being in the world that he loved? |
5231 | Was n''t it now?" |
5231 | Was n''t the post running every day? |
5231 | Was n''t there some question of a mortgage? |
5231 | Was not his conduct to her, ever since she had now been in London, a repetition of that promise? |
5231 | Was not this a guarantee sufficient to guarantee any man''s respectability? |
5231 | Was not this building a house upon the sand with a vengeance? |
5231 | Was she to be forced by circumstances to keep the girl always there, let the girl''s conduct be what it might? |
5231 | Was there ever anything so dreadful to look at as he is?" |
5231 | Was there not some hitherto forgotten point which it would be well that he should discuss with his friend Roger before he saw the lady? |
5231 | Was there to be no end to the storms and turmoils and misery of her life? |
5231 | Was this to be the end of it? |
5231 | Was your mother speaking to you of what I said to her?" |
5231 | We''re going to;--where do you think?" |
5231 | Well, John, how is it wi''you? |
5231 | Well;--perhaps I shall catch him some of these days;--went to dinner wi''him, did she? |
5231 | Well;--what can I do for you, now that you are here?" |
5231 | Well;--what have you got to say about all this?" |
5231 | Well;--what have you to say to me? |
5231 | Were it so, what should he do? |
5231 | Were not all Jews necessarily an abomination? |
5231 | Were she to refuse Fisker how should she begin? |
5231 | Were you not engaged to me? |
5231 | What advice in this emergency would he give to the mother and what to the daughter, were he himself uninterested? |
5231 | What am I to do with him now?" |
5231 | What am I to do with myself and you?" |
5231 | What am I to do? |
5231 | What am I to say to him about money? |
5231 | What am I to tell him, Felix?" |
5231 | What are we coming to when such as he is an honoured guest at our tables?" |
5231 | What authority could he have?" |
5231 | What became of your father?" |
5231 | What better chance can he have of being weaned from the life he is leading?" |
5231 | What business had such a man to go after any young woman? |
5231 | What business had the club to be shut up? |
5231 | What business has a man to accept one engagement and then take another? |
5231 | What business is all that of mine? |
5231 | What can I do to prevent it?" |
5231 | What can any one say in his favour?" |
5231 | What can be more harsh than that? |
5231 | What can be more natural? |
5231 | What can come of an intimacy between you and such a one as he?" |
5231 | What can he do better? |
5231 | What can he do? |
5231 | What can you do for me about money, mother?" |
5231 | What check have you on him?" |
5231 | What could I say of good? |
5231 | What could be the devotion which men so often affect to feel if it did not tend to self- sacrifice on behalf of the beloved one? |
5231 | What could it matter whether this young man was left in a belief that she was, or that she was not, about to be married? |
5231 | What could she do with her money, and in what way would she shape her life, should she determine to remain her own mistress? |
5231 | What could three or four thousand a year, or even five or six, matter to a man like Melmotte? |
5231 | What country retirement could be so suitable for a Lady Carbury when she wished to retire for awhile,--as Carbury Manor, the seat of her own daughter? |
5231 | What curse can be much greater than that inflicted by a drunken, reprobate son? |
5231 | What did Mr. Broune mean by a large sum? |
5231 | What did a few hard words matter? |
5231 | What did he mean by making such an ass of himself? |
5231 | What did he say?" |
5231 | What did it matter? |
5231 | What did love mean if not that? |
5231 | What did you think of the wise men and the wise women, Roger?" |
5231 | What do you expect to get by it?" |
5231 | What do you expect?" |
5231 | What do you intend to say?" |
5231 | What do you mean? |
5231 | What do you say, John?" |
5231 | What do you think is in it?" |
5231 | What do you think of her telling me that she did not understand being left alone? |
5231 | What do you think of that, Mr. Montague? |
5231 | What do you think we''d best do now?" |
5231 | What do you want? |
5231 | What does he expect is to become of us? |
5231 | What duties have you got here? |
5231 | What efforts can mortals make as to which there will not be some disappointment? |
5231 | What evidence had they against him? |
5231 | What evil will not a rival say to stop the flow of grist to the mill of the hated one? |
5231 | What father, what elder brother would allow a daughter or a sister to become engaged to a man embarrassed by such difficulties? |
5231 | What follows as a natural consequence? |
5231 | What good are you doing the Company? |
5231 | What good can be done?" |
5231 | What good can they do papa by being down there?" |
5231 | What good can you do? |
5231 | What good could he do pottering about among the chairs and benches in the banqueting room? |
5231 | What had he better do with himself? |
5231 | What had she done? |
5231 | What hardship will there be in his living for twelve months with a clergyman in Prussia? |
5231 | What harm could our hunting have done him? |
5231 | What has George Whitstable to do with me? |
5231 | What has Roger Carbury to do with our affairs?" |
5231 | What has become of the woman that went with you?" |
5231 | What has been done?" |
5231 | What has brought Roger up to town?" |
5231 | What has brought you to London?" |
5231 | What has come of it all? |
5231 | What has he to be afraid of? |
5231 | What have I done that I should be punished by my children in this way?" |
5231 | What have I done that she should object to me?" |
5231 | What have I done to be-- a prisoner? |
5231 | What have you got to say to me, Felix?" |
5231 | What is it that you do in it, Paul?" |
5231 | What is it that you want to know? |
5231 | What is it you mean?" |
5231 | What is it, Miss Carbury?" |
5231 | What is it?--twenty- five thousand, is n''t it?" |
5231 | What is now to be done about Felix, Hetta?" |
5231 | What is the good of being-- feminine, as you call it? |
5231 | What is the good of putting it off?" |
5231 | What is the meaning of it, Julia?" |
5231 | What is the use of a crowded population?" |
5231 | What is the use of indulging in high- flown nonsense? |
5231 | What is there that money will not do? |
5231 | What is to be gained? |
5231 | What is to become of me? |
