Braham, "that there was an unnatural, insane gleam in her eyes?" "Yes, certainly," said Washington in confusion. All this was objected to by the district attorney, but it was got before the jury, and Mr. Braham did not care how much it was ruled out after that. "Beriah Sellers was the next witness called. The Colonel made his way to the stand with majestic, yet bland deliberation.
"You were telling me about a donkey, Miss , a donkey of your brother's Braham, I think you called him yes, Braham; a strange name for an ass! I wonder what the great Mr. Braham would say to that. Ha, ha, ha!" "Your memory must be excellent, Mr. Wilson, to enable you to remember such a trifling circumstance all this time." "Trifling, do you call it? Why, I have thought of nothing else ever since."
Search for the supposed father had been continued by Lackland, Hawkins and himself for several years, but Laura was not informed of it till after the death of Hawkins, for fear of raising false hopes in her mind. Here the Distract Attorney arose and said, "Your Honor, I must positively object to letting the witness wander off into all these irrelevant details." Mr. Braham.
It was his wife and her son. Monckton started, but the lady gave no sign of recognition. She bowed, but it was to a gentleman at Monckton's side, who had raised his hat to her with marked respect. "What a beautiful crechaar!" said a little swell to the gentleman in question. "You know her?" "Very slightly." "Who is she? A duchess?" "No; a stock-broker's wife, Mrs. Braham.

Harry went, but he soon came back. The trial was put off. Every week we can gain, said the learned counsel, Braham, improves our chances.
The verdict returned was "guilty of riot, but not of conspiracy." I have never been much of a play-goer, but have occasionally visited the theatres when remarkable performers have appeared. I recollect many of the leading actors and actresses of the close of the last century, while all the great ones of this I have seen from time to time. Joe Munden, Incledon, Braham, Fawcett, Michael Kelly, Mrs.
Monckton is a better authority than we are. He had a document with him that, skillfully used, might make mischief for a time between these lovers. But he foresaw there could be no permanent result without the personal assistance of Mrs. Braham. That he could have commanded fourteen years ago, but now he felt how difficult it would be.

Braham having seated himself, deliberately surveyed the entire house, made a remark to one of his assistants, and then taking an ivory-handled knife from his pocket began to pare his finger nails, rocking his chair backwards and forwards slowly.
