"I don't see how I can authorize Marchand's arrest not till he breaks the law, in any case." "It's against the law to conspire to break the law," replied Jowett. "You've been making a lot of special constables. Make Mr. Gabriel Druse here a special constable, then if the law's broke, he can have a right to take a hand in."
When the head of the funeral procession was opposite the bridge the band, the hearse, the bodyguard of the hearse Gabriel Druse stood aside, and took his place at the point where the lines of the two processions would intersect. It was at this moment that the collision came.
"I do' know as it would do you any good, prob'ly it wouldn't," said Druse shyly, shifting the glass from one hand to the other, "but I used to stroke Ma's head lots, when she had a chance to set down, and it ached bad."
Yes, if I could go back where I used to live," said Miss De Courcy with her hoarse, abrupt little laugh. "No, I don't either. Folks are pretty much all devils, city or country." Druse shivered a little. She looked up with dumb pleading into the reckless, beautiful face she had learned to love so well from her humble tendings and ministerings. She had the nature to love where she served.
Bishop Nicodemus, who watched the current of observations, began telling hunting stories of the time of the Emir Bescheer, when that prince resided at his splendid castle of Bteddeen, near Deir el Kamar. This was to recall the days when the mountain had only one ruler, and that ruler a Shehaab, and when the Druse lords were proud to be classed among his most faithful subjects.
We are the Fawes, the ancient Fawes, who ruled the Romany people before the Druses came to power. We are of the ancient blood, yet we are faithful to the Druse that rules over us. His word prevails, although his daughter is mad. Daughter of the Ry of Rys, you have seen us once again.
Druse dragged a chair to the side of the couch, and for some minutes there was silence that is, the comparative silence that might exist in the Vere De Vere while she deftly touched the burning smooth flesh with her finger tips. Miss De Courcy opened her eyes drowsily. "I guess I'm going to get a nap, after all. You're doing it splendid. You'll come and see me again, won't you?
"Oh! well," responded Miss De Courcy, with a hoarse little laugh of amusement. "I thought they might have thought maybe they objected to your making 'cquaintances without a regular introduction, you know. Haven't been here long, have you?" "No," said Druse, looking down at her tidy, with a sudden homesick thrill. "No, I I come from East Green, Connecticut. I ain't got used to it here, much.
His eyes alone would have announced him as of some foreign race, though he was like none of the foreigners who had been the pioneers of Manitou. Unlike as he and Gabriel Druse were in height, build, and movement, still there was something akin in them both. After a short silence evidently disconcerting to him, "Blessing and hail, my Ry," he said in a low tone.
They were very gay, and so finely dressed, one in a bright green plush coat, and the other in a combination of reds, that Druse made a frightened plunge for the door and escaped, but not before one of the ladies had inquired, with a peal of laughter, "Who's the kid?" Druse had flushed resentfully, but she did not care when her friend told her afterward, with a toss of the head, "They're nothing.
