"No, ma'am," replied Peg nervously, then instantly corrected herself: "No, ANT! No, ANT!" "AUNT!" said Mrs. Chichester haughtily. "AUNT. Not ANT." Alaric commented to Ethel: "ANT!

"Do you really mean it, Kitty? Are you going away to leave me?" "You won't miss me much," I said flippantly I had a creepy, crawly presentiment that a scene of some kind was threatening "and I'm awfully tired of Thrush Hill and country life, Jack. I suppose it is horribly ungrateful of me to say so, but it is the truth." "I shall miss you," he said soberly. Somehow he had my hands in his.
You made me scold him for nothing." Helen shook her head. "I detest the man. There is something crawly and repulsive about him. I can read evil in his face. Don't trust him, Kenneth. Remember, if anything goes wrong, don't blame me. I warned you. My instinct seldom fails." Her husband laughed and, advancing, put his arm tenderly around his wife.
