Later, having displayed him on the streets in witness to his good faith, Roland spent the evening with Mr. Burnham mysteriously confabulating behind closed doors in the hotel. Speculation ran rife through the town until nine o'clock, and land for several days basked in the heat of public interest. I happened accidentally to get a glimpse of Mr.
So no sooner had the echo of our ringing cheer died away amidst the hills beyond Malindi, now purpling with the shades of evening, ere, turning round as well as he could with his bandaged limbs, still sitting in the easy-chair in which he had been brought up from below, he hailed the signalman and told him to make the Merlin's number, calling Mr Gresham at the same time to his side, the two of them confabulating together.
"Voices, I should say, if it were not quite impossible that it could be voices, very low and hushed, as if a ghost were confabulating with another ghost about a quarter of a mile away." "Oh, that must be just a fancy," protested Lionel. "There isn't a living soul within a mile of us." And at the same moment Dorry, a couple of hundred feet distant, was remarking to Imogen:
In one of many deeply upholstered club chairs a gentleman of mature years and heavy body, with a scarlet face and a crumpled, wine-stained shirt-bosom, was slumbering serenely, two-thirds of an extravagant cigar cold between his fingers.

She whispered to the others. All three eyed me suspiciously, while I stood looking as pensive and suffering as I could. Then after confabulating together for a little, they all swept into the seat behind mine, and I heard them speculating in low tones as to whether it was epilepsy or catalepsy or convulsions that I was subject to.
He was told that these miscreants had a plan to surround his house that night and to shoot everybody in it, and at that very moment they were confabulating at a certain farmhouse. Refusing to be escorted or guarded, he made his way to that farm, and walking into the kitchen, rated the lot of them in unmeasured terms.
And, moreover, she is probably quite well informed about you and your intentions. She gossiped half through lunch with that ill-bred fellow Birch. I heard your name once or twice. Oh! and by-the-way!" Sir James turned sharply on his heel "what was she confabulating about with Miss Drake all that time in the garden? Did they know each other before?" Marsham replied in the negative.
