Bayne excused himself on the ground that he thought everybody knew Grotait. He added, "He knew you, and told me if he could serve you, without being unjust to the Trades, I was to tell him." Henry replied to this only by a snort of defiance, and bade him good-night. The next day and the next were spent in other works, and then Henry, having no more facts to learn, fell into deep dejection again.
At all events, without a word of warning, Julian Bayne, five years before, had the unique experience of reading in a morning paper the notice of the marriage of his promised bride to another man, and of sustaining with what grace he might the rôle of a jilted lover amidst the ruins of his nuptial preparations.
And he's a scoundrel, if you want to know! But frame up a murder deal plan to murder Luke Sanford No. I don't believe it!" "Is he the man to miss a chance that lay at his hand? The main chance for him? The chance to hold a man like Chris Quinnion in the hollow of his hand, to make him do his bidding, to set him just such work as he is doing now? Answer me! Is Bayne Trevors above a deal like that?"
"I'll admit that there is reason to suspect a strain of selfishness in Rachel's nature," said Anna Bayne; "but it's the only blemish among her many good qualities. Still, I think you do her an injustice in attributing her absence from our meetings to purely selfish motives." "Of course, we all know what you mean," said Elmira.
The announcement, it was plain, exasperated her, for slightly, but undeniably, she stamped one arched, slender, attractively shod foot. "Mr. Bayne," she demanded, "are you a secret-service agent?" "Good heavens!" I exclaimed, startled. "No!" "Then I'm sorry. That would have been a better reason for following me than than the only one there is," she swept on stormily.
Ah, madam! I shall never, never, see his fellow again." And honest Bayne turned away with his hand to his eyes. This seemed to Mrs. Little to be more than the occasion required, and did not tend to lessen her misgivings. However, she said gravely, "Mr. Bayne, I suppose you have heard there is to be a wedding in the town to-day Miss Carden?" "That is sudden! No, madam, I didn't know it.
Henry Little was much pleased at that, and when Bolt told him how he had carted the bricks in person, said, "You are the man for me; you really are bad to beat." While they were congratulating each other on this hard-earned victory, Mr. Bayne entered softly, and said, "Mr. White to speak to Mr. Bolt." "That is the builder," said Bolt. "Show him up." Mr. White came in with a long face.
You see, it will be entirely simple, either way." The girl, very white now, took a swift step toward me. "Simple?" she cried. "They will kill you! They hate you, Mr. Bayne, and they are four to one. You mustn't go." But the duke's hand was on her arm. "My dear," he said, "he has reason. This friend of yours, I perceive, is a gallant gentleman.
Though of various degrees of merit, they all evince careful study and patient thought, and are written with considerable brilliancy and eloquence. As a critic, Mr. Bayne is generally candid, conscientious, and intelligent, with occasional remarks evincing delicacy and depth of thought; but his perceptions are not always trustworthy, and his judgments are frequently of doubtful soundness.
Bayne, his thin face livid with anger and also, Cardon noticed, with what looked like a couple of fresh bruises ignored him. Feinberg broke off his chant of "Unfair! Unfair!" long enough to answer: "A Literate First Class has been brutally assaulted by the Illiterate owner of this store.
