Thorne," she continued, "may I ask how came you here in my father's house after having treated me so cavalierly in London? not even sending a P.P.C. when you vanished from your worshippers in Vanity Fair."
Joe can do this he can write, and, what is better, sing you a Fenian ballad, and if he sees he has made a mistake, he can quiz himself and his song as cavalierly as he has sung it! And now, on my solemn oath I say it, I don't know that anything worse has befallen us than the fact that there are such men as Joe Atlee amongst us, and that we need them ay, sir, we need them!
Chief among these was the bookmaker. As an historian the bookmaker was original. He cavalierly waved aside all such confusing things as dates: made Moses and Mahomet contemporaneous, incidentally referred to King Solomon's visits to Cleopatra, and with sad irreverence spoke of the Exodus and the destruction of Pharaoh's horses and chariots as "the big handicap."
He held the twisted letter to the feeble spark of fire glimmering in the grate, as he spoke, and then changing his mind, deliberately unfolded it, and smoothed the crumpled paper with his hand. "Poor little Alicia!" he said, thoughtfully; "it's rather hard to treat her letter so cavalierly I'll keep it;" upon which Mr.
The sensations which reason treats so cavalierly were at least something actual while they lasted and made good their momentary claim to our interest; but what is this new ideal figment, unseizable yet ever present, invisible but indispensable, unknowable yet alone interesting or important?

Maurice was growing weary of his name. "Enter," said the baron, opening the door.
For aught Miss Thorne knew of the matter, a couple of hours might be quite sufficient under the new regime to complete that for which she in her ignorance had allotted twelve months. But we must not pass over the wooing so cavalierly.
Surely it is no great feat to assume that a man who treats a fifty-guinea watch so cavalierly must be a careless man. Neither is it a very far-fetched inference that a man who inherits one article of such value is pretty well provided for in other respects." I nodded, to show that I followed his reasoning.
Presently there came speeding towards him a lady on a bicycle, and he was sure that it was Constance. She did not slacken her pace; clearly she would not stop. "Good morning!" sounded cheerfully from her, as she drew near. "Have you seen the mill? Come up to the house as soon as you like." She had swept past, leaving in Dyce a sense of having been cavalierly treated.
Charlie May was very attentive to her, and she seemed to thoroughly appreciate him, although his wife had treated her so cavalierly the day before. After dismissing the rest of the party she had a long, private conversation with Patterson.
