"You're fair, of course. I can tell that by your voice; you've got a light-haired voice. And what are your eyes?" "Blue!" Clementina laughed at his pursuit. "Ah, of course! It isn't a gray-eyed blonde voice. Do you think has anybody ever told you-that you were graceful?" "I don't know as they have," said Clementina, after thinking. "And what is your own opinion?"
He saw in him only a tall, athletic, light-haired man with blue eyes. I was more fortunate. I not only came to know Reade in 1879, but also knew several persons who knew him intimately and loved and admired him prodigiously; they were all in one story about him.
He he's been hooked. And it's his birthday. Take him, 'cause he'll die if ye don't!" Moved to a sense of pity, the light-haired woman extended two slender white hands to receive the human bundle, struggling in pain under the muffling shawl. "He's a dyin'!" gasped Scraggy. "His pappy's a hatin' him! Give him warm milk " Again the yacht's whistle shrieked hoarsely, drowning her last words.
As I approached the garden gate, I saw another person advancing towards it also from the direction opposite to mine. We met under the gas lamp in the road, and looked at each other. I instantly recognised the light-haired foreigner with the scar on his cheek, and I thought he recognised me. He said nothing, and instead of stopping at the house, as I did, he slowly walked on.
"Don't you remember, when I was telling her fortune there in the train, I told her that the light-haired man had already come into her life, and she made fun of me and said it must have been the Swede brakeman? Well, what I told her was true, because Lieutenant Allison had already seen her then! Now, will you say there isn't any truth in fortunes?"
Turning next to my own impressions, I discovered in my newly-found relative, a little light-eyed, light-haired, elegant woman; trim, and bright, and smiling; dressed to perfection, clever to her fingers' ends, skilled in making herself agreeable and yet, in spite of these undeniable fascinations, perfectly incomprehensible to me.
Gum afterwards found was untrue; so that Willy Gum had not been at Calne since he left it. And whenever his mother thought of him and that was every hour of the day and night it was always as the fair, young, light-haired boy, who seemed to her little more than a child. A year or so of uncertainty, of suspense, of wailing, and then came a letter from Willy, cautiously sent.
I'm going to turn it over to the police, and if anybody reports the loss to them they will find it intact." As we stood there looking at the curious scarab in Nyoda's hands a motorcycle putt-putted past in a cloud of dust and we recognized our light-haired friend apparently leaving town. "We'll never get a chance to thank him for that address!" I said, half regretfully.
Sam Arnold was of respectable appearance, about thirty years of age, with dark hair and beard and a good countenance. Spangler, the stage-carpenter, was a chunky, light-haired, rather bloated and whisky-soaked looking man. Atzerott had a decided lager beer look, with heavy blue eyes, light hair, and sallow complexion.
Everything that each of us kept hidden in his heart and who is there that has not something hidden in his heart? came to the surface. Our host's face suddenly lost its modest and reserved expression; his eyes shone with a brazen-faced impudence, and a vulgar grin curved his lips; the light-haired gentleman laughed in a feeble way, with a senseless crow; but Asanov surprised me more than any one.
