I fancied the wireless said, "We've won the old lady over, at last," for Warrington continued to look at her, while she blushed a bit, then dropped her eyes to hide a happy tear. Mrs. de Lancey was bustling about and I felt sure that in another minute every available bellhop in the hotel would be at work. As Warrington might have said in his slang, "Action is her middle name."
Townsend is in court this morning," the secretary reported, "but he will be available this afternoon." "Save me the first hour," said Davy. "It's important to both of us." After luncheon Davy tipped the bellhop to accompany him. "I could probably find the place," he explained, "but I go better if I am haltered and led to the spot." As the caller hoped, Townsend was in.
That word angel aroused my suspicions for the nonce, for angels are the ones who generally get lanced, but he handed it out so fervent that I knew he would make good on some of the points, so from force of habit I said, "Bring out your contract." And with those tender words and the pitcher the bellhop had brought back we plighted our troth. What do you know about that?
That's the discouraging feature of it, to be sold out after we had won our fight." Rawson agreed with Hardy. "Yes, we're licked. Even if Jeff were to show up, with all these stories against him, we wouldn't be able to stem the tide now." "Mister Raw-w-son Mister Raw-w-son." The singsong voice of a bellhop echoed through the rotunda.
You needn't be afraid of the pigeon sneaking up an alley and drinking half of it and then coming back with the stall, 'The boss is on tonight; there ain't no bellhop to tip and all the bird wants is three or four grains of corn, mother, and its just as happy and care free as if you opened wine. Won't that be a boon to humanity, though? If he don't get a Carnegie medal things are run wrong.
"I told her Saint Andrew's wasn't far from Boston, and she offered to get her cousin Dermot he's a bellhop at the Touraine to valet him. Imagine San with a valet at Saint Andrew's!" Rawling laughed. "But San isn't spoiled," Peter observed, "and he's the idol of the valley, Bob, even more than you are. Varian, McComas, Jansen the whole gang and their cubs. They'd slaughter any one who touched San."
It was this way: Me and him were the guests at a beefsteak party, and after the fourth drink he commenced to show me marked attention, and when we got out of the cab in front of my hotel he offered to help me upstairs, though I generally have a bellboy for that purpose, and when we had got up in my apartment and Estelle had gone to give the bellhop a quarter and the pitcher, he popped the question, and such beautiful language, I remembered it the next morning and wrote it down.
He took his pen and wrote: "June 3rd, 1917. Captain sober." A bellhop passed through the hall of the St. Francis Hotel whistling loudly. "Young man," said Manager Woods sternly, "you should know that it is against the rules of this hotel for an employee to whistle while on duty." "I am not whistling, sir," replied the boy, "I'm paging Mrs. Jones's dog."
Everybody was so nice to me. And you had a good time yourself, I know. I saw you breaking hearts, one after another, you little siren." "Siren, yourself! How did you like that Bell boy?" "Gracious! That sounds like a hotel attendant! In fact I think 'bellhop, as I believe they call them, wouldn't be a bad name for Eddie Bell.
