Crosby's," said Rosmore, laying some stress upon his words. "For which we both thank you," she went on. "For my part I have had, perhaps, unjust thoughts concerning you, your present generosity makes me understand that in many ways I have misjudged you. Please forgive me."
"And if not you could help me to find this fiddler, perhaps?" said the girl. When she had gone Martin came from behind the screen, and Barbara looked at him, her eyes full of questions. "Yes, mistress, I fear her story is true. What she says of Mr. Crosby's doings is correct, also it is a fact that Galloping Hermit has been in Dorsetshire." "You have seen him?" "I have heard of him."
The mighty baron had come to invite them to a feast at his castle, where no feast had ever been made so grand before as this would be; and Otto had carte blanche to engage other distinguished sojourners at Stalkenberg, English, French, and natives, who had been civil to him. Mrs. Crosby's head was turned. And now, I ask you, knowing as you do our national notions, was it not enough to turn it?
When he reached Crosby's, Juliet clad in her best, was just leaving the house. She was outwardly cheerful, but her face still bore traces of tears. "Where were you going?" asked the Doctor, as Juliet greeted him. There was a new shyness in her manner, as of some unwonted restraint. "I was going into town. I wanted to see Aunt Francesca."
Crosby's humor is considered subversive of a proper respect for all patriotism; but I cannot understand why they have added YOUR name as especially 'dangerous." Hurlstone made a gesture of contempt. "I suppose they pay me the respect of considering me a friend of the old priest. So be it! I hope they will let the responsibility fall on me alone."
"Well, why don't you fire her, Sally?" her husband asked, as he had asked of almost every maid they had ever had of lazy Annies, and untidy Selmas, and ignorant Katies. And, as always, Mrs. Salisbury answered patiently: "Oh, Kane, what's the use? It simply means my going to Miss Crosby's again, and facing that awful row of them, and beginning that I have three grown children, and no other help "
Crosby's scowl relaxed, and, reseating himself at the table, he rolled a cigarette. "Now, if he pulls it off," he whispered, "and gets back to quarters, then it's a case of all's well. But, if he's shot, or caught, and it all comes out, then it's up to us to prove he meant it as a practical joke." "It isn't our duty to report it now, is it?" asked Curtis, nervously. "Certainly not!
Rivers played all kinds of games together, when Rivers was away." "Well, who's in charge of the investigation?" Rand wanted to know. "I heard, on the radio ..." "You're liable to hear anything on the radio, including slanders on Bing Crosby's horses. But for the record, I am in charge of this investigation. And don't anybody forget it, either," he added, in the direction of the rear seat.
To-morrow I shall apply at Crosby's for a good, old-fashioned maid, who doesn't have to have her daily bath, and doesn't expect to be entertained at my club!" "But, listen, darling," Alexandra pleaded. "DON'T make a fuss now. Justine was my darling belle-mere's guest to-day, don't you see? It'll be so awkward, scrapping right in the face of Owen's news.
I inquires. "It's Eddie Bayles," says she. "He clerks in Crosby's grocery. But he don't make but thirty-five a month. Ella Noakes was wild about him once." "Old Mack tells me," I says, "that he's going to marry you at six o'clock this evening." "That's the time," says she. "It's to be at our house." "Rebosa," says I, "listen to me.
