But" her voice dropped to an intense whisper "he has asked to see Miss Walton first wants to speak to her alone! What does he mean?" Anne was in a tremendous flutter, and it was plain that wild ideas were coursing through her. "You are my chaperone, of course, but what can he want to see you for alone Cousin Mary?"
Meanwhile, at the elder Cameron's there had been a discussion touching the propriety of their taking Helen under their protection, instead of leaving her to Mrs. Banker to chaperone, Bell insisting that it ought to be done, while the father swore roundly at the imperious Juno, who would not "be bothered with that country girl."
Ethel rebelled, and much preferred the "rabble," as Joe irreverently called his troop of ladies, never losing her delight in Regent Street shops, the parks at the fashionable hour, and the evening shows in full blast everywhere during the season. She left the sober party whenever she could escape, and with Mrs. Sibley as chaperone, frolicked about with the gay girls to her heart's content.
They should not be able to say I could not chaperone myself in any situation. "Dam good port this, Christopher," Lord Robert said, when the '47 was handed round. "Is this what you asked me down to sample?" "I thought it was to give your opinion about the pictures?" I exclaimed, surprised. "Mr. Carruthers said you were a great judge."

Relieved of the presence of that social pace-maker, the chaperone, the disciples of Plato are wont to take long walks, and further on, they spend whole days in the country with book and wheel.

I have tried to do my duty to my client, but in this affair you seem likely to get your own way...." "You mean to deal straightly." "I'm not going to risk having my brains scattered in a petty affair like this."
He paid considerable attention to Dorothy, too, but Miss Meechim said that she didn't worry about Dorothy at all since I would chaperone her, and Robert wuz going to protect her from any possible lover.
"Come on, we can't afford to waste any time." "Where shall we go first?" asked Violet. "To Laura's," Billie decided. "If we can get her mother and father to consent and then can get Mrs. Gilligan to go with us as chaperone, we'll have a pretty good argument to give our folks. Eh, what?" Gaily the girls set off to win Laura's parents over to their side, and they were lucky enough to find Mrs.
As they drove off, with Boss as chaperone, a perfect salvo of old shoes was thrown after them! They returned with colours flying, for had not Lowson saved the situation by producing a tape measure three minutes after the accident, measuring the space the Frenchman swore was wide enough for his car to pass, and proving thereby it was a physical impossibility?
