When they had left Gévingey, Des Hermies, after walking in silence for some time, said, "You are not astonished that all the events spoken of tonight happened at Lyons."

First of all, back came Greg, opening the door and looking in inquiringly. "Haynes has gone, I see," murmured Cadet Holmes. "Yes." "To stay away?" "I rather think so," nodded Cadet Prescott, without looking up from the pages of his textbook. "Then there'll be some show for a poor, hard-working goat," muttered Greg, closing the door behind him and falling into his chair.
"If you knew things that perhaps you don't know now...." Dinah looked at him inquiringly, but instead of going on, he reached a chair and brought it near the corner of the table where she was sitting. She wondered, and was afraid and the next moment her thoughts flew to the past: was it something about those distant unhappy ones that she didn't know? Adam looked at her.
"This was taken about a year ago?" inquired Ford. "Must have been," he answered himself; "they haven't raced at the Bay since then. This was taken in front of the club stand probably for the Telegraph?" He lifted his eyes inquiringly. Rising on her elbow the young wife bent forward toward the photograph. "Does it say that there," she asked doubtfully. "How did you guess that?"
Meanwhile the slippery object of his hopes had gone along the dark passage, passed the trap which opened on the wheel, and through the door into the mill, where she was met by Bob, who looked up from the flour- shoot inquiringly and said, 'You want me, Miss Garland? 'O no, said she. 'I only want to be allowed to stand here a few minutes.
"We were to have gone to Fiesole to-morrow," she said inquiringly. "We can still go if the day is fine," returned the girl. "Nothing is changed. I wish very much to go. Couldn't we go to-day?" she added, with eager defiance. "It's too late to-day," said Mrs. Bowen quietly. "I will write to remind the gentlemen." "Thank you. I wish we could have gone to-day."
An involuntary movement, and a half-suppressed exclamation on Manasseh's part, made the speaker turn to him inquiringly; then, as the other said nothing, he resumed: "This factotum is the evil genius of the family, and the two together make a pair hard to match.
Gabriel Nietzel entered, and behind him the lackey gently closed the door. The sharp eyes of the count rested inquiringly upon the newcomer, who remained standing near the door with head sunk and humble, melancholy mien. This submissive, contrite silence on the part of the returning painter was sufficiently eloquent to the mind of the count.
A rabbit hopped nimbly across the road ahead of them and disappeared, with a taunting flick of his little white tail, in the bushes. Further on a chipmunk chattered at them from the top of the wall and then, with long leaps, raced ahead to stop and eye them inquiringly, finally disappearing with a last squeal of alarm. A second sign-post renewed their courage.
Alton of Somasco seems to be a somewhat intelligent man." "Yes," said the girl thoughtfully. "It is a little difficult to dislike him." "I," said her father, smiling, "do not know that there is any great necessity, or notice signs of a marked endeavour on your part to do so." The girl glanced at him inquiringly. "You mean?" said she.
