"And Medhurst is Colonel Clay!" he exclaimed, clapping his hand to his forehead. "I beg your pardon, sir," the Colonel interposed. "I have but one personality, and no aliases." It took quite half an hour to explain this imbroglio.
And how came he by these papers? Confused, partly by his numerous aliases, more by incapacity to conceive of such depth and complication of horror as were revealed by the idea, the perplexed thinker did not, for a while, admit to herself the possibility that the nameless vagabond may have been Clara's living husband, instead of a mercenary villain who had secured surreptitiously the proofs of a marriage she wished the world to forget.

"I am not 'Mrs. Blair," she cried, laughing merrily as at a tremendous joke. "It is only one of my aliases.

Occasionally this mother visited upon her daughter, her laughter hitting through the store like cymbals. She had the sagging flesh of an old fowl and cheeks that had not been cleansed of rouge long enough for the pores to breathe in and keep the flesh alive.
Curse his aliases! He should be Lovel, and carry his head as high as any Villiers or Talbot. The reflection sent his hand to an inner pocket of the coat now drying by the hearth.
