Quickly, but eloquently, Blood expressed his thanks, where he knew that no thanks were due. "We will talk of this again, sir to-morrow," he concluded. "You have opened for me the gates of hope." In that at least he tittered no more than the bare truth, and expressed it very baldly.
They sat there in the hushed lobby as remote from the world as though shipwrecked on a desert island. It was Mary Louise who now looked at the floor. She could feel Claybrook's eyes upon her. He was waiting for her to speak, but she could not collect her thoughts. It had come upon her baldly, without preparation. She scarcely realized the import of his words.
"I figure," pursued Lefever, "that he has already saved the company fifty thousands in depredations during the next year or two. The Calabasas gang is busted for five years they would eat out of his hand isn't that so, Bob?" "The Calabasas gang, yes; not the Morgans." John's eyes opened on Scott with that solemnity he could assume to bolster a baldly unconvincing statement. "Not now, Bob.
A learned counsel may be in a fog he very often is but he doesn't state the fact baldly; he wraps it up in a decent verbal disguise. Tell us how you arrive at your conclusion. Show us that you have really weighed the facts." "Very well," said Jervis, "I will give you a masterly analysis of the case leading to nothing."
Possibly he had been the victim of an illusion too, not believing that austerity of principle could exist with such bright eyes and red cheeks as charmed him in the country girl. At least, he never hesitated subsequently, not only to imply, but to state baldly, a sense of the existence of injury.
"Sexual activity," Havelock Ellis has written, "is not merely a baldly propagative act, nor, when propagation is put aside, is it merely the relief of distended vessels. It is something more even than the foundation of great social institutions. It is the function by which all the finer activities of the organism, physical and psychic, may be developed and satisfied."
"She, Bess, had left her husband?" "No, Craig had left her." Suddenly, instinctively, the impersonal had been dropped; but neither man noticed the change. "There was a reason?" "Yes," baldly. "Another woman." The locked fingers across the Indian's knee were growing white; white as the sunlight without. "And now he has returned, you say, to sell the ranch, her ranch?" "It is her ranch no more.
The evils of this astonishing system could not be even baldly catalogued in a lifetime. They are infinite in number and prodigious in magnitude. To the trained intelligence of the American observer it is incomprehensible how any, even the most barbarous, nation can endure them.
He does not enlarge upon this dogma, but states it baldly as a natural law, little anticipating that within a couple of centuries it was to be called seriously in question. Kao declared that righteousness is only to be got out of man's nature in the same way that good cups and bowls are to be got out of a block of willow wood, namely, by care in fashioning them.
As always before, it began with an arraignment of the facts in the case, a search of memory for any forgotten data which might lead to a conclusion. The first crisis arrived on the evening when Judge Tiffany came home in a plain mood of disgust, and announced baldly: "Well, Mattie; our young friend did everything I expected of him." He went on quite simply with the news.
