The butler replied that Miss Trevert was no longer at Harkings. She had gone to the Continent for a few days. This plain statement, retailed in the fortissimo voice which Bude reserved for use on the telephone, produced a remarkable effect on the detective. He grew red in the face. "What's that?" he cried assertively. "Gone to the Continent? I should have been told about this.
In a dry voice Victor commented: "Precisely." "Omelettes," Sturm interjected, assertively, "are not made without breaking eggs." "And all rivers, no doubt, flow to the sea? What a lot you know, Herr Sturm! Is it the Portfolio of the Minister of Education you've picked out for your very own, after the explosion comes off if it's a fair question?"
"Bermondsey Ol' Stairs to Sain' Pancras," argued the cabby assertively; "seven mile by th' radius; three 'n' six!" Kirkwood stood on the outer station platform, near the entrance to third-class waiting-rooms. Continuing to fumble through his pockets for an elusive sovereign purse, he looked up mildly at the man.

An' I've got to see it all day long. I can't look out the winder but that thing's right in my face." It seemed to make her savage. She hadn't been in such a temper since her visit to New York. "I hope you feel satisfied with it."

"But I'm just as fond of them, Mr. Robinson," Charlie said assertively, "and I get on with them too, now, don't I?"
"I don't know anything about the sheep. He's out there tending them. And she's out there with him." "I know what he's doing with them," said Harry Lee. "He's administrating them." "What have they got?" inquired big Tom. "Who's got what?" "What is it that's ailin' them? I say, what have they got?" repeated Tom assertively, being a little in liquor. "They have n't got anything.
