On the night of the Governor's ball, it was four weeks to the day since Stephen Knight and Nevill Caird had inquired for Victoria Ray at the Hotel de la Kasbah, and found her gone. For rather more than a fortnight, they had searched for her quietly without applying to the police; but when at the end of that time, no letter had come, or news of any kind, the police were called into consultation.
He slipped ungraciously away from the thanks that ought to have been pleasant, and found himself, almost unconsciously, looking up Willie's name in the clerical directory, "Dr. William Caird, 22 Moray place."
As they left the arcaded streets of commercial Algiers, and drove up the long hill towards Mustapha Supérieur, where most of the best and finest houses are, Stephen and Nevill Caird talked of what they saw, and of Victoria Ray; not at all of Stephen himself. Nevill had asked him what sort of trip he had had, and not another question of any sort.

I really think the meeting was a pleasure to both of them, and when my old chief in the Dictionary of Christian Biography took his departure, Huxley found all kinds of pleasant personal things to say about him. But the Professor and I were not always at one. Caird and Green and, for other reasons, Martineau were to me names "of great pith and moment," and Christian Theism was a reasonable faith.
Nevill Caird had once said that there was no sharp, dividing line between phases of existence, except one's own moods, and Stephen had thought this true; but now it seemed as if the sea which silvered the distance was the dividing line for him, while all that lay beyond the horizon was mysterious as a desert mirage.
Caird could not publish his voice and manner, and in warning these, the sermon wants the first, second, and third things which conduced to its effect when delivered. In May, 1854, Mr.
"A big caravan coming from the south. Can't you see it?" "No. I see nothing." "You haven't stared at the desert for eight years, as I have. There must be eighteen or twenty men." "Do you think they're from the Zaouïa?" asked Victoria. "Who can tell? We can't know till they're very close, and then " "Nevill Caird will get here first," Stephen said, half to himself.
Then you and I, Legs, will engage horses and a guide." "You deserve your name, Wings," said Stephen. And he wondered how Josette Soubise could hold out against Caird. He wondered also what she thought of this quest; for her sister Jeanne was in the secret. No doubt she had written Josette more fully than Nevill had, even if he had dared to write at all.
For a few minutes Janet Caird let her stand and watch the departing boat; then she said with an air of business, "Weel, weel, Maggie, they are gane, but the wark o' the house bides. If you are ready I'll just gae through it, and tak' a look at the things put under my hand and charge." Maggie turned round sharply. "There is nae charge in your hand, Aunt Janet.
