"Not at all," said Saxham, inexpressibly wearied by the voluble little woman's discourse. Ignoring the conventional disclaimer, Lady Hannah went on: "They're in the early stage the First Act of the dear old play. Pretty to watch, isn't it? Though it makes one feel chilly and grown old, as Browning or somebody says.
Until that rather scornful disclaimer of the Duke's son, Mrs. Bailey's piece of fashionable intelligence had served whether Adrian believed it or not as a sort of chaperon's aegis extended over this interview. It had protected him against himself against his impulse to break through a silence that his three weeks' memory of this girl's image had made painful.
Perhaps when I've told you, you won't have anything more to say to me I don't know." Gillian opened her lips in quick disclaimer, but he motioned her to be silent. "Wait," he said. "Wait till you've heard what I have to say. You think, and Magda thinks, that June died of a broken heart at least, that the shock of all that miserable business down at Stockleigh helped to kill her." "Yes."
Too bad!" and Lady Eynesford shook her head in playful despair. "But," said Coxon, feeling now quite happy, "isn't the the inducement at home?" "Oh yes, she's somewhere," replied Lady Eynesford, good-naturedly ignoring her visitor's too ready acquiescence in her modest disclaimer. "I'm afraid I'm a poor politician. I can conceal nothing."
And much of the credit is due to your efforts," he added, generously. Corrigan murmured a polite disclaimer, and plunged into dry details. J. C. had a passion for dry details. For many hours they sat in the office, their heads close together. Braman was occasionally called in. Judge Lindman was summoned after a time.
To these it might appear, that whatever there was of consolatory in the king's disclaimer of arbitrary power and professed attachment to the laws, was totally done away, as well by the consideration of what his majesty's notions of power and law were, as by his declaration that he would follow the example of a predecessor, whose government had not only been marked with the violation, in particular cases, of all the most sacred laws of the realm, but had latterly, by the disuse of parliaments, in defiance of the statute of the sixteenth year of his reign, stood upon a foundation radically and fundamentally illegal.
Then he asked me to describe the man, and he made an excuse to send his servant over in the evening so that I should see him. He came. Oh, Cecil! He saw me, and he ran away! He had not returned this morning. He has deserted!" Still silence. It seemed to Claire of most pitiful import that Cecil made no disclaimer, that at the word of a stranger she accepted her lover's guilt.
"You were willing to betray your mistress?" "Deschamps swore it would do no real harm. Do I not tell you that Deschamps and I always liked each other? We were old friends. I sympathized with her; she is growing old." "How much did she promise to pay you?" "Not a sou not a centime. I swear it." The girl stamped her foot and threw up her head, reddening with the earnestness of her disclaimer.
In his excitement he had dropped an admission as to the past in politics while offering a disclaimer as to the present. "There's no time now for any political discussions," retorted Morrison, curtly. "It's a matter right now of side-tracking a fight. If that fight comes off, Governor North, the truth will come out. And you can't point to a principle in your case as an excuse for bloodshed!"
Spencer, though troubled sufficiently by his own disturbing fantasies, did not fail to notice their peculiar behavior. But he answered Helen with a pleasant disclaimer. "Christian kept his hoard a secret, Miss Wynton. I too have lost my appetite," said he. "Once we start we shall hardly be able to unpack the hamper again," said Helen. The American was trying her temper.
