But now that she can go to College and back for five shillings, let her travel down thither. All the men of Saint Boniface will recognize Hugby and Crump in these two pictures. They were tutors in our time, and Crump is since advanced to be President of the College. He was formerly, and is now, a rich specimen of a University Snob.
His errand satisfactorily accomplished, the cooper returned home. Meanwhile the landlord had called. He was a little surprised to find that Mrs. Crump, instead of looking depressed, looked cheerful, rather than otherwise. "I was not aware you had a child so young," he remarked, looking at the baby. "It isn't mine," said Mrs. Crump, briefly. "The child of a neighbor, I suppose," thought Colman.
Scobell's secretary broke up unexpectedly into a slow, wide smile. His eyes behind their glasses gleamed with a wistful light. "Gee!" he murmured. John looked at him, amazed. "Crump," he cried. "Crump, I believe you're a sport!" Mr. Crump seemed completely to have forgotten his responsible position as secretary to a millionaire and special messenger to a prince. He smirked.
The water was perfectly smooth; she was thus able to get up close to the base. Captain Crump himself was seated in the stern. He hailed, to know what had happened. A few words explained this. The difficulty was to get into the boat. Should we open the door, the water, which was of considerable height outside, would rush in and wet us all through, if it did not drown us.
More than any words, this spectacle removed any lingering doubt which John might have had as to the possibility of this being some intricate practical joke. "Are these for me?" he said. Mr. Crump passed them across to him. "There are a thousand dollars here," he said. "I am also instructed to say that you are at liberty to draw further against Mr.
"Both 'Flying Pigs' and 'Plum Puddings' ought to make topping scenes." "Yes," the Captain said. "They are in action this afternoon, and I am in charge of H.T.M. I'll give you a good show. I have only one pit available, as Fritz dropped a 'crump' in the other yesterday, and blew the whole show to smithereens.
It was not long in coming and she was soon being whirled in the direction of Mrs. Crump's residence. Mrs. Crump was glad to receive Tiara and she was again assigned to the room in which she slept on the night of her arrival in Almaville. Tiara did not go to bed, but rocked to and fro, anxious for day to break, eager, so eager to see Ensal.
On the same seat with Foresta and her mother sat Tiara and Ensal and their presence somehow gave added assurance to Henry. Henry made his statements, the witnesses were examined and in the monotone with which the police judge went through with all of the cases, he said, "Fined twenty dollars and costs." Foresta half arose, shocked at the amount, and Mrs. Crump crouched back in her seat in despair.
"Bring up two bottles, Mr. Crump told his story of the "Bootjack," and whose boot it had drawn; the former Miss Delancy expatiated on her past theatrical life, and the pictures hanging round the room. Miss was equally communicative; and, in short, the Captain had all the secrets of the little family in his possession ere sunset.
We sees the game in a wink to get past the spot the next crump was due to arrive on afore it did arrive. We did it too handsome an' wi' some to spare, though when I heard the roarin' swoosh of it comin' down I thought we was for it an' a direck hit was due. But it went well over an' none of the splinters touched.
