"The mother really was ill," Molyneux said, apologetically; "at least she died soon after that. Miss Tresilyan has never shown much since. But you've no idea of the sensation she made during her season and a half. They called her The Refuser, she had such a fabulous number of offers, and wouldn't look at any of them. By-the-by, there's rather a good story about that. You know Margate?
To be allowed to look after you has been the dream of my life for months: "'Thy elder brother I would be, Thy father, anything to thee!" "By-the-by, Dicky, where is your father now?" asks Stephen Gower, who is leaning against the mantelpiece in Dulce's vicinity, but not quite close to her. Ill-temper, called dignity, forbids his nearer approach to his goddess. "Down South," says Dicky.
"Sit with the eyes tightly shut and in absolute stillness for two minutes," he said. "Then you will hear me speak." He added an inch or so of water to the little dose in each glass. "By-the-by," he said, "don't put your glass down. Keep it in your hand and rest your hand on your knee. Yes so. And now " He raised his glass. "The New Accelerator," I said.
Pedgift Senior opened the door, stopped, considered, closed the door again, came back mysteriously with his pinch of snuff in suspense between his box and his nose, and repeating his invariable formula, "By-the-by, there's a point occurs to me," quietly resumed possession of his empty chair. Allan, wondering, took the seat, in his turn, which he had just left.
Just ask Slyme about the accounts. By-the-by, he gets more irregular daily." "More drunk, do you mean?" says Fabian. There are moments when his manner is both cold and uncompromising. Portia regards him curiously. "Yes! yes! Just so," says Sir Christopher, hastily.
Lessingham's disclaimer was in quite the correct vein. "You must both come again very soon," their hostess concluded, as she shook hands. "I enjoyed our bridge immensely." The two men were already on their way to the door when a sudden idea seemed to occur to Captain Griffiths. He turned back. "By-the-by, Lady Cranston," he asked, "have you heard anything from your brother?"
'He said he was going to Australia next. By-the-by, what's his address? Something, Russell Street. Don't you know? 'No idea, he replied, smiling. 'Never mind. I'll send the letter to Mrs. Ormonde; she always knows where he is, and I believe she's the only one that does. When the meal came to an end Mr. Newthorpe went, as usual, to his study.
I am sure I should not object. I know one thing I shall never endure to put a bonnet on my head again. By-the-by, Mr. Cruse, who is this Sir Lionel Bertram that has just come? Is he a baronet?" "Oh dear, no; nothing of that sort, I imagine. I don't quite know who he is; but that young man is his son." "They say he's very clever, don't they?"
"By-the-by, I have brought a passenger an old shipmate of mine, whom Mr Morton will at all events be glad to see." "And so shall I," said Lord Claymore, glancing at the gangway, at which a fine, stout, elderly-looking man appeared, dressed in plain clothes. Ronald sprang aft, and grasped his hand. "Father, I little expected to see you. Where have you come from?"
By-the-by, what has become of our tall friend who accompanied us from Aberdeen? I expected to have seen him here. He seemed to be perfectly well acquainted with the state of things here, and intimate with those two black-coated gentlemen who professed to be ministers.
