A few persons had managed to slip past the guards and had stationed themselves near the awning at the main entrance to watch the arrival of the guests. Beneath their fur cloaks, the women wore their very finest gowns and their richest jewelry. The hall of the chancellory had been transformed into a cloakroom and there the crowd was thickest.
As she returned to the cloakroom where her wraps were she was surprised to find Emily Meeks there. Emily started guiltily when Hinpoha entered and made a desperate effort to finish wrapping up something she had in her hand. But her nervousness got into her fingers and made them tremble so that the object she held fell to the floor.
She vanished for a few moments in the cloakroom, and reappeared, a radiant vision in deep blue silk. Her hair was gathered in a coil at the top of her head, and surmounted with an ornament of pearls. "You are looking at my headdress," she remarked, as they walked into the room. "It is the style you admire, is it not?" He murmured something vague, but he knew that he was forgiven.
Rose's answer was sullen. "Rose, I ask you again. A great deal depends on your answer. Will you tell me?" The girl's lip curled. Then she laughed in a way that made Miss Hill think of her as older. But she kept silent. "Rose, you're expelled until further notice." Miss Hill's voice trembled with disappointment and anger. "You may go now." Rose gathered up her books and went into the cloakroom.
"I'll look in the cloakroom. There is no need to be excited. A parrot will hurt no one, nor a monkey, either. Keep your seats!" As she opened the cloakroom door the harsh voice again sounded more loudly than before. "Bow! Wow! Wow!" it barked. "Cracker! Cracker! Polly wants a cracker! Let's have a song! Ha! Ha! Ha!" Then it began what I suppose the bird thought was singing.
Verdurin's pianist always 'skipped. There were in this passage some admirable ideas which Swann had not distinguished on first hearing the sonata, and which he now perceived, as if they had, in the cloakroom of his memory, divested themselves of their uniform disguise of novelty.
Gillian, however, being given to think for herself in all cases of counsel from Aunt Jane, thought it could do no harm to beguile the brushing of the child's hair by asking why Kalliope would not come to the concert. 'Oh, it's a great secret, but Maura told me in the cloakroom. It is because Mr.
"Why, put it in the cloakroom of course," returned the other, and this time her irritation at this continued interruption was so unmistakable that Margaret, blushing crimson, grasped the unlucky bag and fairly fled out of the waiting-room, without, as she contritely remarked afterwards, a word of thanks or apology. Having safely deposited the bag in the cloakroom, she set out for her walk.
"And John Coulson's going to stand a treat for the whole family, and drive us all out to The Dale the Kid and all. And you're to come along. Scoot and get your hat." Elizabeth danced away down the hall to the cloakroom dizzy with joy. Examinations, mathematics, principals of High Schools, all unkind and troublesome things had vanished in a rosy mist.
Smith, listening tensely to sounds from without, turned and spoke to Helen; and as the curtain fell they started quickly up the aisle. Their seats chanced to be open to the side aisle of the house, and a moment later Smith was handing his check to the cloakroom attendant, with a "Hurry up, please" and a lubricant to celerity.
