Many ways of ascertaining the fact were revolved by her as with an aching head she lay hopelessly awake till morning, when she fell into a doze which lasted until she found that Raymond had risen, and that she must dress in haste, unless she meant to lose her character for punctuality.
Before she could move, whether to advance or to flee, Raymond replied: "I wanted to ask you you know I wanted to ask you!" "Oh, yes, you did!" replied the visiting girl ironically. "I did!" protested Raymond. "Well, why didn't you then?" "I'd already asked somebody else. I couldn't!" And then the visiting girl laughed strangely. Missy knew she knew with whom Raymond had danced that first dance.
Think it over, and tell me if it is possible." Jenny let him drive on more than a mile before she spoke; and when she did, the tears stood on her cheek, and it was quite an effort that her voice was made steady. "No, Raymond, I am very sorry, but it will not do. Two griefs will not make one joy." "Yes, they would, to my mother." "Ah! there it lies!
Torn Raymond and Jack Parmly, as related in the initial volume, "Air Service Boys Flying for France; or The Young Heroes of the Lafayette Escadrille," were Virginians. Soon after the great world conflict started, they burned with a desire to fight on the side of freedom, and it was as aviators that they desired to help.
"Pleased to meet you, Miss Merriam," said Mr. Briggs. He was dark and not very good-looking not nearly so good-looking as Raymond but there was something in his easy, self-assured manner that struck her as very distingue.

"What does it matter?" replied Madame Raymond. "We could imagine them." "But," asked the Princess Seniavine, "do you ever see interesting things? I never do."
Issuing perhaps from Raymond Buildings gate, six lawyers' clerks might whoop a tipsy song or the loud watchman yell the passing hour; but beyond this all was silence; and young Perkins, as he sat in the summerhouse at the bottom of the garden, and contemplated the peaceful heaven, felt some influences of it entering into his soul, and almost forgetting revenge, thought but of peace and love.
"Go like the devil, Frank!" shouted Raymond, as the scurrying horsemen swept in a body over the sand and he found himself for a moment beside his friend. "He's a beauty. Forty inches, I'll swear. Splendid tusks." Wargrave crouched like a jockey in the saddle as the riders raced madly after the boar.
In this design the King of France and the crusaders who were still about him might be of real service; and he attempted to win them over. Louis answered that he would engage in no enterprise until he had visited the holy places. Raymond was impetuous, irritable, and as unreasonable in his desires as unfortunate in his undertakings.
"And Janet Raymond?" "Janet's father is pretty rich owns a big wire-fence factory, but Janet has only a reasonable allowance," Penny answered. "As for me I'm very rich: I get thirty-five whole dollars a week, to support myself and Mother on." Dundee remained thoughtfully silent for a long minute.
