"Nevill's Court," said Mrs. Jablett, "is a alley, and you goes into it through a archway. It turns out of Fetter Lane on the right 'and as you goes up, oppersight Bream's Buildings." I thanked Mrs. Jablett and went on my way, glad that the morning round was nearly finished, and vaguely conscious of a growing appetite and of a desire to wash in hot water.
In such circumstances, the celebrated bull of Bashan would have been constrained to retire from his presence with its tail between its legs. When we say that Captain Bream's eyes were kind eyes, and that the smile of his large mouth was a winning smile, we have sketched a full-length portrait of him, or, as painters might put it, an "extra-full-length."
'He's not a patient of mine, Sir Jasper said. 'I'm only one of the visiting doctors at Dr. Bream's establishment. I don't go there unless he sends for me, and I keep no notes of his cases. You will have to ask him. If I am not mistaken his hours are from ten to twelve.
What was it we were talking about? oh yes! your secret. Well, what is it?" With a flushed face and eager look, Ruth said, "Mother, I cannot help being convinced that Mrs Bright the fisherman's wife, is no other than Captain Bream's lost sister!" "If you cannot help being convinced, child, it is of no use my attempting to reason with you. But why think of such nonsense?
I'm sure she must be feeling lonely. I left her all by herself down on the next deck." A look of alarm spread itself over Bream's face. "Jane Hubbard! Oh, say, have a heart!" "She's a very nice girl." "She's so darned dynamic. She looks at you as if you were a giraffe or something and she would like to take a pot at you with a rifle." "Nonsense! Run along.
"Well, but she would have been a lady or or would have had different manners if she had been Captain Bream's sister," objected Mrs Dotropy. "That does not follow," said Ruth, quickly. "The captain may have risen from the ranks; we cannot tell; besides, Mrs Bright is very refined, both in manner and speech, compared with those around her.
He followed Billie in a docile manner out through the front door, and they made their way to the garage at the back of the house, both silent. The only difference between their respective silences was that Billie's was thoughtful, while Bream's was just the silence of a man who has unhitched his brain and is getting along as well as he can without it.
There are moments when a man feels that all he needs in order to be a delivery wagon is a horse and a driver. "He had better chirrup to the dog while he's there, don't you think?" suggested Sam. He felt that a resolute man with legs as long as Bream's might well deposit a cloak on a berth and be back under the half-minute. "Oh, yes! Bream!" "Hello?"
"While you're down there, just chirrup a little more to poor Pinky. He does appreciate it so!" Bream disappeared. It is not always easy to interpret emotion from a glance at a man's back; but Bream's back looked like that of a man to whom the thought has occurred that, given a couple of fiddles and a piano, he would have made a good hired orchestra.
As for Logotheti, he always had coffee in his room wherever he was, he never appeared at breakfast, and he got rid of his important correspondence for the day before coming down. 'I've had a letter from Threlfall, he said as Lady Maud came up. 'I was just telling Miss Donne about it. Feist died in Dr. Bream's Home yesterday afternoon.
