It's at home, locked up." There was another great silence, and then she said "Go back and destroy it." I went back, but I didn't destroy it till after Saltram's death, when I burnt it unread. The Pudneys approached her again pressingly, but, prompt as they were, The Coxon Fund had already become an operative benefit and a general amaze: Mr.
"She is not very well," she answered, rather coldly. "I I hope I shall have the pleasure of seeing her?" Mr. Coxon's wishes were fulfilled to the moment. The door opened and Alicia came in. On seeing him she stopped. "Come in, Alicia," said Lady Eynesford. "Here's Mr. Coxon come to be congratulated." Coxon stood up with a propitiatory smile. "How do you do, Mr.
"Well, I'll just tell her, and then I'll write to Coxon and see what to do." "Do make her understand it's impossible," urged Lady Eynesford. "We've no reason to suppose she's ever thought of it," the Governor reminded his wife. "No, of course not," she said. "I shall leave you alone with her, Willie." Alicia came down at the Governor's summons. "Well, here's another," said the Governor playfully.
It might be that Alicia's feelings had undergone no change, but, if so, Coxon was forced to recognise that he could never have enjoyed a large share of her favour, for she acknowledged his presence with the minimum of civility, and, when he addressed her directly, replied with the coldness of pronounced displeasure.
"Coxon generally falls on his feet," he remarked. This victory was almost the last excuse the crowd found for cheering. The figures came in thick and fast now, and the tale they told was of Medland's utter defeat. By twelve o'clock the issue in seventy-five seats was declared; of the other five, four were safe for Sir Robert; and Medland had only twenty-nine supporters.
"She needn't identify us all with Medland?" "Come and have a cigar. Ah, there's Sir John! How are you, Chief Justice? Looks a bit shaky, doesn't he? Come along, Coxon." So saying, Kilshaw led the way to the smoking-room, and, when the pair were comfortably settled, he recurred to his topic.
Coxon told me himself: he came into my room when I rose to-day. He's asked Medland to accept his resignation." Kilshaw sprang to his feet. "What on?" asked Sir Robert. "The Accident-Liability Clause in the Factory Act." "A very good ground," commented the ex-Premier. "Very cleverly chosen." "What does Medland say?" asked Kilshaw eagerly. "Will he give way, or will he let him go?"
"I think I'll go and interrupt friend Richard." And he continued, apostrophising the absent Dick "To stay out, my boy, may not be easy; but to get out when you're once in, is the deuce!" Suave mari magno Like so many of us who quote these words, Mr. Coxon could not finish the line, but the tag as it stood was enough to express his feelings.
As the day then drew to a close, Bohemund heard that a large but insignificant group of the enemies who had earlier besieged this city was moving ahead of our men. And so, taking with him only his immediate retinue, he set out in pursuit, but did not find those whom he sought. Now the army reached a town called Coxon, where they found great abundance of useful supplies.
Coxon detected a grin on the face of Captain Heseltine, who was sitting near, but he could not hold Sir John's grave face guilty of the Captain's grin. "I see," remarked the Captain, perhaps in order to cover the retreat of his grin, "that they've discharged the woman who was arrested last night for the murder." "Really no evidence against her," said the Chief Justice.
