Burnham in to see Sam " "Yes," Burnham interrupted Roland quickly; "Barnette's been kind enough to show me round town a bit." "Here on business?" inquired Lockwood pointedly.

Blinky's countenance underwent one of its erratic quakes as he examined Burnham with his habitual intentness.
I read the proofs with an admiration strongly tinctured with awe, and found it lacking in one particular only: no mention was made of Roland Barnette's first open-faced suit. Roland had ordered it from a clothing-house in Chicago, and it arrived just in time. I was loitering in Graham's when Roland sauntered nonchalantly in at about a quarter to eight and called for a pack of "Sweets."
Which he did, as in duty bound; he liked the game less and less all the time, but Kellogg held his promise.... It was during this period, between the Easter vacation and the end of the spring school term, that Roland Barnette's animosity toward Duncan became virulent.
Only, of course, it took time to work it out just right, 'specially when I had to stop now and then 'cause I needed money for materials. But it's all right now, Homer, it's all right now." "And you say Roland Barnette's writing to some one in New York about it?" "Yes; he promised he would. I explained it to Roland and he seemed real int'rested. He's kind, very kind."
"That's a nice way of putting it," Duncan considered without emphasis. "Roland Barnette's always walked home with me, but I think he's just tiresome." "Why?" inquired the young man, with some interest. She averted her head, plucking at the strands of the hammock. "Oh, you know," she said diffidently. "Oh?" Nat was enlightened. "Then I'm sorry for Roland." "Why?" "I can't blame him, you know."
