However," he continued, "we must be conscientious about it. I've no desire to play it low down on Bramley. Let us walk round and pick out the places of interest he's most likely to expect to catch us on, and look at them separately. I should hate to think I wasn't telling the truth about a thing like that."
"The hired men can run the farm for the summer." Lapsing into silence as he watched the effect of his words, Mr. Alden enjoyed the looks of surprise and curiosity, then continued: "When I got to Bramley this morning I found a letter from a man named Henry Sargent, a Glasgow lawyer. He said my uncle, Thomas Darwent, had died, leaving me the only heir to his estates.
And as the train left the Bramley depot the members of the ball team gave three rousing cheers for Larry and Tom. The parting with their parents at Pittsburg was hard for the boys, but fortunately for them their train left first, and soon they were engrossed in watching their fellow passengers.
The cars were of the old-fashioned variety and but two in number, and drawn by an old mountain engine that had seen better days. Moreover, the roadbed was very uneven, and the cars rocked from side to side as they rolled between the hills towards Bramley, where the young folks were to get off.
"Oh, if you're going to steel yourself against it, my love " "Now, what Bramley said to me the day before we sailed was this No, I'm not steeling myself against it; my every pore is open to it Bramley said: 'Your time is limited, you can't see everything. Very well. See the unique. Keep that in mind, he said; 'the unique.
After supper the farmer and his wife drove to Bramley to say good-by to their friends, but the two chums decided to stay at home. Eager to be on their way, it seemed to Larry and Tom that the hours never passed so slowly. They tried to read, but in place of the print on the pages pictures of cowboys and bucking bronchos danced before their eyes, and they soon shut their books.
Now, another thing that Bramley said was, 'Look here, he said, 'remember the Unattainable Elsewhere and get it. You're likely to be in London. Now the Unattainable Elsewhere, for that town, is gentlemen's suitings. For style, price, and quality of goods the London tailor leads the known universe. Wick, he said he was terribly in earnest 'if you have one hour in London, leave your measure!"
But don't you look at them, Bramley said, 'as a whole. You keep all your absorbing-power for one apartment, he said 'the Tribune. You'll want it. Bramley gave me to understand that it wasn't any use he didn't profess to be able to describe his sublimer emotions, but when he sat down in the Tribune he had a sort of instinctive idea that he'd got the cream of it he didn't want to go any further."
Shannon, Mr. Solomon, Mr. Alfred East, Mr. Bramley? Mr. Swan has been passed over so many times that his election is beginning to seem doubtful. For very shame's sake the elder Academicians may bring their influence and insist on his election; but the City merchants' nominees are very strong, and will not have him if they can help it. They may yield to Mr.
"And muddle it all up so they wouldn't understand it any better than you do your lawyer's letter," returned Larry. "That's a bull's-eye," grinned Joe, whose mind was running to shooting terms. And as neither their father nor mother interposed any objections, the boys telephoned the message to the operator at Bramley, who promised to send it at once.
