The Century Dictionary gives bagnet, and Halliwell and Wright both give baginet with the g soft apparently, though neither the one nor the other is very explicit in distinguishing transcriptions from old authors from phonetic spellings of dialect forms. In order to explain Walter Johnson's testimony and his state of mind, I must carry the reader back nearly a week. The scene was Dr.
McKeith greeted them all heartily and rather shyly introduced them to his bride. The local men were shy also. They mostly addressed her as Mrs McKeith. The police magistrate Captain Halliwell, lean, dark, sallow, with a rather weak mouth, but more carefully dressed than the others, and with an English voice, called her Lady Bridget.
At the same time she slipped a finger over her ring. "Why don't you look at me?" asked Halliwell, selfishly. "I daurna." "Am I so fearsome?" "You're a sojer, and you would shoot me like a craw." Halliwell laughed, and taking her wrists in his hands, uncovered her face. "Oh, by Jove!" he said again, but this time to himself.
Halliwell evidently has an idea rumbling round in his otherwise tenantless attic room that he's a Brahmin of the Brahmins, an aristocrat dead right, a goo-goo for your Klondyke galways, a Lady Vere de Vere in plug hat and "pants."

Think you he is more dangerous than, say, friend Elliott?" "Mason Elliott? Oh, of course, he has been an admirer of Eunice since they made mud-pies together." "That's two, then," Embury laughed lightly. "And Jim Craft is three and Halliwell James is four and Guy Little " "Oh, don't include him, I beg of you!" cried Eunice; "he flats when he sings!"
Halliwell was in such a furious temper that he called up Davidson and admonished him for neglect of duty. Not till the stroke of three did Gavin turn homeward, with the legs of a ploughman, and eyes rebelling against over-work. Seeking to comfort his dejected people, whose courage lay spilt on the brae, he had been in as many houses as the policemen.
