"And yet," remarked Miss Belsize, as we formed a group about her in the firelight, "you seem to have met your match the other day, Mr. Levy?" "Where was that, Miss Belsize?" "Somewhere on the Continent, wasn't it? It got into the newspapers, I know, but I forget the name of the place." "Do you mean when my wife and I were robbed at Carlsbad?"
It was all right in a pal of ours, Bunny, but all wrong in the man who dreamt of marrying Camilla Belsize." "Yet you have just been moving heaven and hell to make it possible for them to marry after all!" Raffles made another attempt upon his paper. I marvel now that he let me catechise him as I was doing.
There was Clive's acquaintance, Mr. Belsize that was, Lord Highgate who is now, entertained our whole family sumptuously last week wants us and Barnes and his wife to go to his country-house at Christmas is as hospitable, my dear Mrs. Pendennis, as man can be.
Miss Belsize had divined what I knew, but neither of us would admit to the other that the charge against Raffles would be true enough. "But why should these men follow him?" said I, really wondering why they should. "If there were anything definite against old Raffles, don't you think he would be arrested?" "Oh! I don't know," was the slightly irritable answer.
Wherefore, one morning, just as the first pale glints of dawn came stealing over the silent land, Reginald Simpkins climbed carefully into a great mound of sandbags which had conveniently been deposited just behind the front line by the miners. But it is doubtful if Miss Belsize of the camisole department would have recognised him.
He was for taking Jack to walk, and for reasoning with him further, and for entering more at large than perhaps he chose to do before the two others upon this family dispute. Clive took a moment to whisper to Lord Kew, "My uncle and Barnes are arrived, don't let Belsize go out; for goodness' sake let us get him to bed."
It is I impetuous and ungrateful during all your years of sorrow who most need forgiveness. Let me share your burden that I may lighten it. He is just. It is fitting that I go. I can earn a name a name that I need not blush to bear nor you to hear. I am strong. I can work. The world is wide. Farewell! my own mother!" "Not yet, not yet! Ah! see he has taken the Belsize Road.
"I have heard all about her meeting with that villain, Jack Belsize." "Don't call names, my good fellow," says Lord Kew. "It strikes me you don't know Belsize well enough to call him by nicknames or by other names. Lady Clara Pulleyn, I believe, is very unwell indeed." "Confound the fellow! How dared he to come here?" cries Barnes, backing from this little rebuff. "Dare is another ugly word.
Do you mean, Viscount ?" says Belsize, "Jack Belsize once more, and he dashed his hand across his eyes. Kew has riled me, and he drove me half wild. I ain't much of a Frenchman, but I know enough of what you said, to say it's true, by Jove, and that Frank Kew's a trump. That's what you mean. Give us your hand, Frank.
Walking about at Fribourg in the night, away from his companions, he had thought of ordering horses, galloping back to Baden, and once again under that window, calling Ethel, Ethel. But he came back to his room and the quiet J. J., and to poor Jack Belsize, who had had his tooth taken out too.
