His nature was inflammatory, and so was that of the lucifers which he always carried about him, with his tracts and glue-pots. The next morning there was an inquiry made for the tinker, but he had disappeared from the neighbourhood. It was a fortunate thing that the dejeune dansant so absorbed Mr.

Without a sigh he left his lady in Norfolk Street to mix gin-sling for other admirers, and felt no regret though four brother navvies were going to make a stunning night of it at the 'Salon de Seville dansant, at the bottom of Holborn Hill. However, he had his hopes that he might be back in time for some of that fun. And Undy Scott was there.

Amongst these considerations was the letter which Leonard wished to write to the parson. "Wait a bit, and we will both write!" said Richard, good- humouredly, "the moment the dijeune dansant is over!" It must be owned that this fete was no ordinary provincial ceremonial. Richard Avenel was a man to do a thing well when he set about it, "He soused the cabbage with a bounteous heart."

Not a word, not even a suggestion while they were dancing, of the matter of the cab; it was as though she were just an old friend. And her dancing was a delight such a delight, indeed, that he was reluctant to have it end. Somehow, one gets to know quickly one's partner in the dansant. "This is perfectly entrancing, Mr.

Do you remember, two years ago, their giving a party for a black man on the day of Julia Mingott's the dansant? Luckily this time there's nothing else going on that I know of for of course some of us will have to go." Mr. Welland sighed nervously. "'Some of us, my dear more than one? Three o'clock is such a very awkward hour.

You must pardon me, but you really can't ask people to a dejeune dansant, and then scold 'em!" "I'm not going to scold them," said Air. Avenel, very seriously, "upon my honour, I'm not. I'm going to make all right, and I even hope afterwards that the dancing may go on and that you will honour me again with your hand. I leave you to your task; and believe me, I'm not an ungrateful man."

Guests continued to arrive from time to time; some from Westchester and the Connecticut shore, others from neighboring estates. One couple in riding-clothes, out for a gallop, dismounted and stayed for a trot. The huge tiled terrace began to resemble a Broadway the dansant.

M'Catchley had described with much eloquence the /Dejeunes dansants/ of her fashionable friends residing in the elegant suburbs of Wimbledon and Fulham. She declared that nothing was so agreeable. She had even said point-blank to Mr. Avenel, "Why don't you give a /Dejeune dansant/?" And, therewith, a /Dejeune dansant/ Mr. Avenel resolved to give. The day was fixed, and Mr.

"Well, Felicity had always designed the gowns for her dancing and acting, and after the elimination of Mr. Noaks she set up a dressmaking establishment for artistic and individual gowns. She opened it with a the dansant, at which she discoursed on the art of dress. Her showroom is like a sublimated hotel lobby tea is served there for visitors every afternoon.

Richard Avenel. "I wonder what Mrs. M'Catchley will say?" Indeed, if the whole truth must be known, Mr. Richard Avenel not only gave that dejeune dansant in honour of Mrs. M'Catchley those soft words which but why not here let Mr. Richard Avenel use his own idiomatic and unsophisticated expression? "Please the pigs, then," said Mr. Avenel to himself, "I shall pop the question!"
