But Harry Wethermill was out of breath and shaking with agitation. "I can't wait," he cried, with a passionate appeal. "I have got to see you. You must help me, Mr. Ricardo you must, indeed!" Ricardo spun round upon his heel. At first he had thought that the help wanted was the help usually wanted at Aix-les-Bains.
There we were to change cars, the Geneva train going on to Paris, while we took the train on the opposite platform for Aix-les-Bains. This necessitated passing through the dépôt, and passing through the dépôt was passing through the custom-house.
Anna Wolsky looked round her as she spoke with a searching glance, and then she suddenly exclaimed, "Yes, I do know someone here after all! That funny-looking couple over there were at Aix-les-Bains all last summer." "Which people do you mean?" asked Sylvia eagerly. "Don't you see that long, thin man who is so queerly dressed and his short, fat wife?
Poplars marched along with us on either side, primly on guard, and puritanical, though all the while their myriad little fingers seemed to twinkle over the keyboard of an invisible piano, playing a rapid waltz. Then we came at last into Aix-les-Bains, where I had spent a merry month during a "long," in Oxford days. I had not been back since.
On May 4, 1899, at Marion, Massachusetts, Richard was married to Cecil Clark, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John M. Clark of Chicago. After the marriage Richard and his wife spent a few weeks in Marion and the remainder of the summer in London and Aix-les-Bains. MARION, May 28th, 1899. DEAR MOTHER: You sent me such a good letter about the visit of the three selected chorus girls.
Find her, exchange burthens, send her to the train for Aix-les-Bains. It will be waiting there. You hurry back to this coupé, lie low, and, if all goes well, you will be travelling on toward Amberieu before the enemy has the least notion what has occurred." "But one word, please. What will the enemy have been doing at Culoz? Say they catch sight of Henriette as soon as we do?"
It is a very long way to Genoa if you don't stop at Aix-les-Bains or anywhere twenty-four hours but Mont Cenis occurs in the night, which is suitable in a tunnel. There came a chill through the darkness that struck to one's very marrow, and we all rose with one accord and groped about for more rugs. When broad daylight came it was Savoy, and we realised what we had been through.
Here as at Aix-les-Bains, Baden- Baden, and Ostend, it is the glitter and pomp of the place which attract them. Here fashion and folly, side by side, call them with siren voices, instead of the medicinal qualities of their healing waters.
He was troubled with rheumatism in his arm, and wrote his first letter from Aix-les-Bains, a watering-place a "health-factory," as he called it and another from Marienbad.
While at Geneva our party separated for a few days. My friends proposed making an expedition up the lake, while I arranged to spend a day and night at Aix-les-Bains, a small town in the south of France. My object in visiting it was not to enjoy the sulphur-baths for which it is famous, but to see some friends who were spending the summer there.
