He hesitated for a moment and then burst out, rather plaintively: "She's an awfully good sort, demme, she is. And so are you, Brock, it's mighty decent of you. You're the only man in all the world that I could or would have asked to do this for me. You are my best friend, Brock, you always have been." He seized the American's hand and wrung it fervently.
"Yes," laughed the count, as he leaned back against the soft cushions, "it promises to be a busy day at the Oaks! Really" as the equipage rolled on "New Orleans is fast becoming a civilized center demme!" The land baron's injuries did not long keep him indoors, for it was his pride rather than his body that had received deep and bitter wounds.
"Demme, Agatha, don't ask me," he said irritably, passing his hand over his brow. "I've told you that twice. Ask them; I daresay they know." She looked at him in disgust. "As if I could do such a thing as that! Dear me, I don't understand it at all. Four years married. Yes, I'm sure that's it. Carney, you don't suppose " She hesitated.

"Keep your card and we'll send it in to announce our arrival to Shaw." In due course of time, after many slips and falls, they reached the front yard of the house on the hillside.
And then Trotter, pere, ceased speaking to look searchingly into his son's face; an embarrassed smile brightened his grim old countenance and he went on, good humour growing stronger in each succeeding word: "You rascal! Why did you tell me that? Do you know, for a moment, I actually thought you were in earnest, and well, demme! it did work me up a little.
What, you dog? Have you a way with them? Gad's bud, immensely so, said Mr Lynch. The bedside manner it is that they use in the Mater hospice. Demme, does not Doctor O'Gargle chuck the nuns there under the chin. As I look to be saved I had it from my Kitty who has been wardmaid there any time these seven months.
The count's two nephews, Egon and Moritz of Hohenlicht, both students, both very fair, their hair parted all the way down to their necks, had stopped midway and were sparring with their racquets.
