Guess these muddy boots aren't exactly wedding-guesty. But that's their lookout for monopolising every vehicle in the place. I wonder if I'll have the audacity to show after all. Or shall I carry this almighty thirst of mine back to the Carfax Arms and quench it in British ale?"
Nap, if if any harm comes to you, I I think it will kill me." There came a sudden gleam in his sombre eyes that seemed to stab her, but it was gone instantly, before he spoke in answer. "Lady Carfax, you are not foolish you are sublime! But be wise as well." Very quietly he extricated his arm from her clinging hands and turned to go. "Don't watch me," he said.
And they held the furious Carfax to his word, and the story spread and spread until it came to the ears of Prince Rupert. "Then he went to see Dame Littimer, and from his own hand he drew what is known in our family as Prince Rupert's ring.
Carfax can look after himself all right. He's used to that kind of company." Olva gazed, through the smoke of his pipe, dreamily into the fire. "You don't like him," Craven said suddenly. Olva turned slowly in his chair and looked at him. "Why! What makes you say that?" "Something Carfax told me the other day.
"I’ll get aboard one if this keeps on." He kicked a lump of ice off into space; the staff officer glanced at him and looked away hurriedly. "Listen," said Carfax with an effort; "we’re not regulars not like the others. The Canadian division is different.
When Master Huckaback came home, he looked at me very sulkily; not only because of my refusal to become a slave to the gold-digging, but also because he regarded me as the cause of a savage broil between Simon Carfax and the men who had cheated him as to his Gwenny.
I would have given a good deal to have been able to see the notice board intact, as it would, perhaps, have given some clue to the ownership of the house. I remembered my experience of the investigation and purchase of Carfax, and I could not but feel that if I could find the former owner there might be some means discovered of gaining access to the house.
I've seen some queer things there myself. Once near Easter Cliffs, after a terrific storm had shifted all the dunes, I came across the bodies of a dozen white men, all together and mummified and wonderfully preserved. God knows how they died and how long they'd been there! "But the weirdest thing that ever happened to me up there was when Carfax disappeared. You remember Carfax?
Damer hastened into the ladies' cloak-room, still half-incredulous. At her entrance Anne Carfax, clad in a white wrap that made her face look ghastly, turned from the dying fire. "My dear Lady Carfax!" exclaimed Mrs. Damer. "I quite thought you left ages ago. What is it? Is anything the matter?" The pale lips smiled. "No, nothing, thank you. I am only waiting for my husband." "Ah!
I daresay Craven won't do anything. After all he loves his sister and she cares for him. That will influence him. But, anyhow, all that's done with. There are bigger things in question than Craven knowing about Carfax, and you were meant to tell him -you were really. You've just forced me to see what's the right thing to do -that's all." Bunning was, surely, in the light of it, a romantic figure.
