Raymond Sue Raymond she was on the stage, and died in Texas San Antonio, I think." Waite swore audibly, his eyes never once deserting the girl's face. "Hawley told you to say that?" "No, he did not," she protested warmly. "It was never even mentioned between us at least, not Sue Raymond's name. What difference can that make?"
As they passed the officer, one of them, pointing ahead of him with his sword, shouted savagely, "Balak!" It was conclusive and convincing. They were deserting her. "Oh, oh, oh! The cowards!" sobbed Beverly in rage and despair. "I must go on! Is it possible that even such men would leave "

Even as he clasped his son's hand in the bitterness of small joy, his lips curled into a snarl of fury. Droom's eyes shifted instantly, his uneasy gaze directing itself as usual above the head of its victim.
He wanted to curse the gnomes for deserting him, for as soon as they were gone with their levers, his eyes and his lips shut tight again, or at least he thought they did.

The next day was Sunday, and Anne felt almost as if deserting her cause, when going to the English service in Whitehall Chapel Royal, now almost emptied except of the Princess's suite, and some of these had the bad taste and profanity to cough and chatter all through the special prayer drawn up by the Archbishop for the King's safety.

"I do not like that," she said. "Is there not some way to leave him behind?" "I do not like it either," said Grauble, "because I fear his presence aboard may make trouble among my men. I do not think they will object to deserting with us to the free world.
Why should we conceive that they will not at once deliver themselves, and punish their oppressors, by deserting that country where they are considered as felons, and laying hold on those rewards and privileges which no other government will deny them?
