You would have been perfectly justified in taking them from her." "I suppose so," Wrayson assented, doubtfully. "Somehow she seemed to get the upper hand of us towards the end. I think she suspected that some of us knew more than we cared to tell her about her husband's death." Louise shivered a little and remained silent. Wrayson walked to the window and back.
"There were two others," a grim voice shouted from behind. A waiter, who had seen the two men sit down, looked doubtfully towards them. Kendricks pushed a note into his hand. "Serve us with something quickly," he begged. The man pocketed the note and set before them the beer which he was carrying. Kendricks, whose knuckles were bleeding, laid his hand under the table.
"We saw you dancing, Mr Clifford," observed Yvonne, with a wicked glance at him from under her mask. Clifford blushed. "I I don't make an ass of myself but once a year, you know," he said, with a deprecatory look at Elliott. "Oh," murmured the latter, doubtfully, "glad to hear it."
"But," said Daisy, doubtfully, unconscious of the knowing gaze which her older little sister had fixed upon uncle Rutherford's face, a gaze which he returned with interest "but did Santa Claus bring Mrs. Yorke all those things, Allie?" "Yes, he did; a Santa Claus did; I'm perfectly sure he did," said Allie. "But they didn't come in her stocking, or grow on a Christmas-tree, either, I know."
"I don't understand," she said. "Well perhaps you don't," said he doubtfully. "At any rate, don't call me Mr. Norman. Call me Fred." "I can't. It isn't natural. You seem Mister to me. I always think of you as Mr. Norman." "That's it. And it must stop!" She smiled with innocent gayety. "Very well Fred. . . . Fred. . . . Now that I've said it, I don't find it strange."
This would be an excellent opportunity for a visit," he said to himself, glancing at his watch: "he generally takes a short rest of fourteen minutes and a half about this time."

"I thinks we'd like to go," he said doubtfully: "only please let's go all together.
"'Tain't a question of being a poor girl or a young lady; it's a question of knowing English," said Rosalie. "I speak it, but to translate a business letter is another thing," said Perrine, doubtfully. "It'll be all right with M. Mombleux; he knows the business part." "Well, then, tell him I shall be very pleased if I can do anything for M. Bendit." "I'll tell him."

Fur's that goes, it's a good thing for men folks to learn to trust us women. If Labe, my husband, hadn't trusted me all these years, he'd have done some worryin', I cal'late. All right, Gertie, I'm with you till the last plank sinks.
Dolly shook her head doubtfully. "It wouldn't be serviceable, because you could only have the one, and you could n't wear it on wet days," she said. "I should n't care about its being serviceable," burst forth innocent Vagabondia, rebelling against the trammels of prudence. "I want something pretty. I do so detest serviceable things.
"I rather think there will be no danger," said Mr. Holiday to his wife, turning towards her as she sat upon the back seat. "The road is pretty level and retired, and he will keep close along behind the carryall."
