The word demento is of no authority, either as a verb active or neuter.
"He is very dangerously ill. Dr. Pitts brought him here. This is his house. We do not know if he will get well. It is only by watching him every instant that we can hope for anything. At this moment there is no one with him but a servant. Now, Mr. Bennett, am I to go to my patient?" "But but we can get some one else."
Pitts," he concluded firmly, "I do not need to tell you that I already know much about the matter which you are concealing." The piling up of fact on fact, mystifying as it was to me who had as yet no inkling of what it was tending toward, proved too much for the woman who knew the truth, yet did not know how much Kennedy knew of it.
Pitts asserts, that his father was a knight; but tho' there is no authority to support this assertion, yet it is reasonable to suppose that he was something superior to a common employ.

Kennedy reached over to get a cigarette from my case and light it from one that I was smoking. "That's=20our man, I think," he whispered "Pitts Slim."

She moved a chair nearer the bureau and sat down to watch him undress, as she had always done since the day she first tucked him into his crib. "Oh, I said I would ask you."
But about this other thing, this poison, I am as innocent, and I believe Thornton is as " Craig laid a gentle hand on her lips. She rose wildly and faced him in passionate appeal. "Who who is this Thornton?" demanded Emery Pitts. Quickly, delicately, sparing her as much as he could, Craig hurried over our experiences.
"Kiss me, Dick," she said, and, afterward: "This is not a... love- touch." Her voice had become suddenly husky. "It's just in case I do decide to... to go." The secretary approached along the hall, but Paula lingered. "Good morning, Mr. Blake," Dick greeted him. "Sorry to rout you out so early. First of all, will you please telephone Mr. Agar and Mr. Pitts.
In his right shoulder they found a bullet-wound, which he must have received while on the bridge, doing his best for the destruction of the Maud. The cook declared that it was not a very bad wound, and not at all likely to be fatal. Pitts brought some brandy from the medicine-chest, and gave him a small quantity of it.
'T was the fust chapter in Ruth, where it begins, 'In the days when the judges ruled. You recollect Naomi told the two darters they'd got to set sail, an' then the Bible says, 'they lifted up their voice an' wept.
