There's the float to be painted and fitted, and the floating decoys to be put in order; and while I use the white paint, you and Regnie must rope and repair the decoys." Accordingly the four sought the barn, whither Ben and Creamer had preceded them on a similar errand.
To-night it was filled with, not flowers exactly, but with floral decorations; for the roses and orchids were lost in the designs garlands, circles, and banks formed of an infinite number of flowers. Mrs. Creamer, a large, handsome woman with good shoulders, stood just inside the great drawing-room. She was gorgeously attired and shone with diamonds until the eyes ached with her splendor.
"And as for her spiritual state," continued the Lady, "that of course must be looked to immediately: with Creamer about her, she may go off any day: and in what a condition, my dear Pitt, in what a dreadful condition! I will send the Reverend Mr. Irons to her instantly.
