I never offer to any hostess the slight of a hurried, distrait 'call, with glances at my watch, and an 'on-the-wing' manner. It is much easier not to go, or to send a card." This brings me around to a subject which I believe is one of the causes of my correspondent's dilemma. I fear that she never can refuse anything.
Mr. Candy hearing of this, had himself driven over to Betteredge, to express his regret at our having missed each other. He had a reason for wishing particularly to speak to me; and when I was next in the neighbourhood of Frizinghall, he begged I would let him know. Apart from a few characteristic utterances of the Betteredge philosophy, this was the sum and substance of my correspondent's letter.
But what can I do for you except ask one or two of the gallery men to mention the book in their London Correspondent's letter?" "But that's the very thing, my dear fellow!" Lionel Moore cried, as he was getting on his white silk stockings. "The very thing! She wants attention drawn to the book. She doesn't want to be passed over.
Some of Lytton's letters had to be kept under lock and key or put in the fire for safer guardianship. Lytton had a private press at which some of his correspondent's letters were printed, and Fitzjames warns him against the wiles of editors of newspapers in a land where subordinates are not inaccessible to corruption.
Writing to one of his correspondents about his correspondent's long- drawn-out deathbed, Samuel Rutherford said to him, "It is long-drawn-out that you may have ample time to go over all your old letters and all your still unsettled accounts before you take ship." Have you any such old letters lying still unanswered? Have you any such old accounts lying still unsettled?
I hear to-day that the government has ordered the excavation of a mile and a half of the old Via Latina in this neighborhood, and much interesting discovery is anticipated." We will only add to our correspondent's account the fact that the Basilica of St. Stephen had been sought for in vain previously to this discovery by Signor Fortunati.
"Regular newspaper correspondent's den," Hunterleys remarked, as he looked around him. "I never saw such a mess in my life. I wonder Felicia allows it." "We don't let her come in," her brother chuckled. "Is the door closed?" "Fast," Hunterleys replied, moving away from it. "Things are moving," the other went on.
In front of the house, and near it, was a tall staff, and on the staff the British Flag. In a moment we, too, had the British Flag flying at our mast-head. Long ago I ceased to wonder at coincidences, still I confess I was scarcely prepared for the Correspondent's exclamation, as, taking the marine glass from his eyes, he said: "Well, I'm decalogued if it ain't a Chinaman!" It certainly was so.
In attempting to answer my correspondent's question, I shall no doubt repeat many things I have said before in different forms, on different occasions. This is no more than every clergyman does habitually, and it would be hard if I could not have the same license which the professional preacher enjoys so fully.
Inquires made by the French detectives established the correctness of this correspondent's information. An assistant at a trunk shop in the Euston Road was able to identify the trunk brought over from Paris for the purpose as one purchased in his shop on July 12 by a Frenchman answering to the description of Michel Eyraud.
