By the way, is the chauffeur a Frenchman, too?" "No, my l ." Dale caught Medenham's eye, a very cold eye at that instant. "No, sir. He's just a fitter from the London agency." "Well, we must trust to luck. He may not remember me in my chauffeur's kit, which is beastly uncomfortable, by the way. I must get you a summer rig. Here is your money five to one I took.
Even if Cynthia were present it was almost a foregone conclusion that the girl would have told how Fitzroy joined her. The luncheon provided for a missing aunt, the crest on the silver and linen, the style of the Mercury, a chance allusion to this somewhat remarkable chauffeur's knowledge of the South Downs and of Bournemouth, would surely have put her ladyship on the right track.
Lower Broadway at this time of night is as empty and deserted as a country road." The chauffeur's sudden laugh was mirthless. "My God, you don't know what you are talking about!" he burst out. "If they're following, all hell couldn't throw them off the track. And I've got to know, I've got to be SURE before I dare make a move to-night.
Until this affair took place the chauffeur's standing had never been satisfactorily settled. Mr. Beach and Mrs.
You are a dear to have brought me, Sir Timothy." "What do you mean?" he demanded. "Mean?" she laughed, as the car swung around and they glided away. "You didn't suppose I was going to sit here and watch you depart upon a mysterious errand? I borrowed your chauffeur's coat and his cap, and slunk down after you.

Quick " Betty's action always followed hard upon the heels of impulse, and before any of the girls had time to realize what she was going to do she had darted across the road, had said a few excited words, and was tumbling into the tonneau.
Then he spied through the larger window upon the yard, to see whether the wall of the new rooms which he had lately added to his house showed any further trace of damp, and whether the new chauffeur was washing the new motor car with all his heart. The wall showed no further trace of damp, and the new chauffeur's bent back seemed to symbolize an extreme conscientiousness.
Dunn wore a neat chauffeur's costume, with which, however, his bearded face did not go too well. He felt indeed that their whole turn-out was far too conspicuous considering the real nature of their errand, and far too likely to attract attention, and he wondered if Deede Dawson's subtle and calculating mind had not for some private reason desired that to be so.
He's never told me their name, and the chauffeur says he can't pronounce it. The chauffeur's is Ottaviano, anyhow; I've been making friends with him. He arrived last night, and he says they're not due at Como till this evening. He simply jumped at the idea of running us over to Milan." "Good Lord " said Lansing, when she stopped. She sprang up from the table with a laugh.
"I wish you both long life and prosperity, and may Heaven's blessing fall upon you." "Back to the 'Cawthorne," said Quincy, as he pressed a small roll of paper into the chauffeur's hand which roll of paper a friendly street light showed to be a five dollar bill. "What will that horrid Mr. Cass say?" "I'll fix him," replied Quincy. "Just await developments, patiently, my dear."
