That will keep them guessing all through it, and keep them interested. Then at the end you can give the answers. How does that strike you?" "I'm game," replied Bob, grinning. "I guess if I bone down to it I can learn a few by then." "You won't even have to memorize them, if you don't want to," said Mr. Allard. "You can read them right off if you'd rather.
I need somebody to round out the bedtime programme at seven o'clock, and I imagine your act ought to go well at that time." "Anything you say, sir," answered Larry, "will suit me." "I can put you up here for to-night," volunteered Mr. Allard.
She was delighted to see him again, and on his part it was evident that he was resolved to make amends for his past neglect and his prolonged absence. Nevertheless, during his stay at the family mansion, he found time to indulge in a flirtation if nothing worse with a pretty girl named Anne Allard.
He thought the marriage of Michael Feydy and Anne Allard binding, because it had been contracted in good faith. Jacques de Verré he absolved from all blame, and was of opinion that since Madame de Verré had signed the marriage-contract it was only just to make her pay something towards the support of Anne Allard and her children. The Supreme Court did not altogether adopt these conclusions.
"I spoke to Doctor Dale about Larry the other day, and he volunteered to drive us to the station in his car. That was some offer, wasn't it?" "It's no more than I'd expect of him," said Brandon. "Right after we first talked about that plan I wrote to the manager of the station, Mr. Allard, and he said to bring your friend along by all means.
Darboy, as we know, was the archbishop; Bonjean, judge of the Court of Appeals; Allard, head-chaplain to the hospitals, who had been unwearied in his services to the wounded; Clerc and Ducoudray were Jesuit fathers; Duguerrey was pastor of the Madeleine. Jecker was a banker who had negotiated Mexican loans for the Government.
"I wouldn't try it for a farm in a theater," said Joe. "But I guess I could work up nerve enough to talk into that sending apparatus. It won't be as bad as reciting in the auditorium at high school, at any rate." "Don't bank too much on it," warned their conductor. "Mr. Allard may not think well of the plan, or he may have found some one else by this time."
Each had an inkstand and pen and paper and every one had a look of severe dignity that was positively appalling. There was the little Auber, the Director, Rossini the great composer looking fat and grand in his impressive wig, Carraffa the celebrated composer, Allard the violinist and four others looking equally wise and solemn.
Contemporary with Hooke was one Allard, who, in France, undertook to emulate the Saracen of Constantinople to a certain extent. Allard was a tight-rope dancer who either did or was said to have done short gliding flights the matter is open to question and finally stated that he would, at St Germains, fly from the terrace in the king's presence.
This attitude was reasonable enough in an unlearned age, and Allard was one a little more conspicuous than the majority among many who made experiment in ignorance, with more or less danger to themselves and without practical result of any kind. The seventeenth century was not to end, however, without practical experiment of a noteworthy kind in gliding flight.
