Brian, who had visited him regularly while he was in hospital, and nursed him with a woman's tenderness as soon as he was discharged from it, had never known it to be so bad as it was on this occasion. "You've been overdoing yourself, old fellow," he said, affectionately, when Dino was able to look up and smile. "You have been out too late. And this den of mine is not the place for you.
Heron, that before you go to these lawyers you would listen to me a little longer. As yet, I have scarcely approached the object of my errand." "Money, I suppose!" said Percival. "Truth will out, sooner or later." "Mr. Heron," said Dino, "are we to approach this subject as gentlemen or not? When I ask you for money, you will be at liberty to insult me, not before."
"You would probably whistle another tune if you had to become a tailor. But you can learn and study everything you want to." "I shall certainly not study everything," Dino informed her. "But your singing is much nicer than your arguing, Agnes, so please begin, and if you don't like my song, you can start another." "We shall all sing together later on, children," said the mother.
But Cornelli could no longer be really gay. She always saw the moment before her when Dino had to say good-bye, and when all their fun would be over. The morning really came fast enough when she had to take leave of him in Martha's cottage. After Dino had driven away, Cornelli buried her head in her arms and cried piteously. Martha, too, was heavy of heart, and sat beside her, crying quietly.
"Brian alive, and meeting with the very man who had a claim to the estate! Though, of course, if one thinks of it, it is only natural they should meet, when Mrs. Luttrell, poor body, had been fool enough to send Brian to San Stefano, the very place where the child was brought up. You know the story?" "No," said Hugo. His heart began to beat wildly. Had Dino kept silence after all? Mr.
Percival coolly took up the photograph and marched away with it to another table, on which he laid it face downwards. He did not choose to have the Italian impostor scrutinising Elizabeth Murray's face. Dino understood the action, and liked him for it better than he had done as yet. The drive to Messrs. Brett and Grattan's office was accomplished in perfect silence.
The arguments against the authenticity of Dino Compagni's 'Chronicle' may be arranged in three groups. The first concerns the man himself.
Little Dino was heartbroken at the loss of his mother, and Old Beppo, after trying in vain to console the little boy, decided to take him, with the two half-brothers, to America, as much perhaps to change the scene for little Dino as to better his condition in our land of hope and promise.
If I spoke too violently and hastily, I hope you will overlook it. I was rather beside myself with rage though not with the sort of regret which Mr. Brett kindly attributes to me." "I understood that," said Dino. By a sudden impulse Percival held out his hand. It was a strong testimony to Dino's earnestness and simplicity of character that the two parted friends after such a stormy interview.
Colquhoun expected. His bow to Dino was a little stiff: his greeting of Hugo more cordial than usual. "You come from Mrs. Luttrell?" he asked, in surprise. Hugo's pallid lips, and look of agitation, convinced him that some disaster was impending. But Dino answered with great composure.
