Ashmead wanted to recognize him, and put him into the best place vacant; but La Klosking said, "No. I will be more his friend than to lend him the least encouragement." At the end of that tour she returned to London. While she was there in her little suburban house, she received a visit from Mr. Edward Severne. He came to throw himself at her feet and beg forgiveness.
Ashmead, "I would have rigged a jury-mast and proceeded; but I can't stop the leak from the inside, without shifting a great portion of the cargo, and our hold is so full that this would be difficult in the extreme. But I own that I do not like delaying a day longer than necessary, here.
Yes, Miss Ashmead in your department," was the answer. The whereabouts of the manuscript was then disclosed, and the editor called for its return. He had called the department "Side Talks with Girls" by Ruth Ashmead. "My girls all hope this is going into the magazine," said the superintendent when he returned the manuscript. "Why?" asked the editor.
Joseph Ashmead. Now, may this train dash over the next viaduct, and take you and Miss Vizard to heaven, and me to hell, if I ever saw Mr. Joseph Ashmead's face before. He uttered this furiously, and, it is a curious fact; but Zoe turned red, and Fanny pale. It was really in quite a cowed voice Miss Dover went on to say, "La! don't fly out like that.
Ashmead! And the moment I saw your friendly face, I said to myself, 'I am no longer alone: here is one that will help me." "And so I will, you may be sure of that," said Ashmead, eagerly. "What is the business?" "The business is to find him. That is the first thing." "But he is in England." "Oh, no; that was eight months ago.
Ashmead should be exposed to the unpleasantness of listening to the explosion of firearms, and that my other lady passengers should be exposed to the danger which cannot but arise, more or less, from a naval conflict. "However, I hope, sir, that there need be no great anxiety as to the result. The Company has given us a heavy armament, and you may be sure that we shall all do our best."
"My friend," said she, deprecatingly, "he is not here." "Not here? That is odd. Well, then, you will be dull till he comes back. Come without him; at all events, to the opera." She turned her tortured eyes away. "I have not the heart." This made Ashmead look at her more attentively. "Why, what is the matter?" said he. "You are in trouble. I declare you are trembling, and your eyes are filling.
But these brilliant women are as mad as the rest in throwing away their affections. They prefer a blackguard to a good man. It is the rule. Excuse my plain speaking." "Mr. Ashmead," said Vizard, "I may be able to answer your questions about this lady; but, before I do so, it is right I should know how far you possess her confidence.
Ashmead took the winnings out of his pocket, and proudly piled the gold and crumpled notes in one prodigious mass upon the linen, that shone like satin, and made the gold look doubly inviting. Then he drew back and gloated on it. The Klosking, too, stood and eyed the pile of wealth with amazement and a certain reverence. "Let me count it," said Ashmead.
If he is not there and I am not so mad as to think he will be there I shall risk a few pieces myself, to be nearer him in mind." This amazed Ashmead; it was so unlike her. "You are joking," said he. "Why, if you lose five napoleons at play, it will be your death; you will grizzle so." "Yes; but I shall not lose. I am too unlucky in love to lose at cards.
