"If I were you, Randall, the first thing I should do is to get rid of that young woman that Dymond girl " He put up his hand to ward off the imminent explosion. "Yes, yes, I know all you've got to say, my boy, but it won't do. She's a young girl " "She's as good as they make them," said Ranny, glaring at him, "as good as my mother there." "Yes, yes, yes. I know all about it.
It is also not impossible that Miss Dymond was entrusted with the £25 for charitable purposes. But to come back to certainties. The prisoner consulted Mr. Constant about the letter. He then ran to Miss Dymond's lodgings in Stepney Green, knowing beforehand his trouble would be futile. The letter bore the postmark of Devonport.
He was a Conservative, sternly conscientious; and the mere insinuation that his obstinacy was due to the politics of the condemned only hardened him against the temptation of a cheap reputation for magnanimity. He would not even grant a respite, to increase the chances of the discovery of Jessie Dymond. In the last of the three weeks there was a final monster meeting of protest.
Grodman says so," said Denzil, startled again. "H'm! Isn't that rather a proof that it was suicide? Well, go on." "About a fortnight before the suicide, Jessie Dymond disappeared. So they tell me in Stepney Green, where she lodged and worked." "What was she?" "She was a dressmaker. She had a wonderful talent. Quite fashionable ladies got to know of it. One of her dresses was presented at Court.
"The supporters of the slave system," says Jonathan Dymond in his admirable work on the Principles of Morality, "will hereafter be regarded with the same public feeling, as he who was an advocate for the slave trade now is."
Now it is Wimp who crows everybody pats him on the back they call him the mystery man of the Scotland Yard tribe. Poor Tom Mortlake will be hanged, and all through your telling Wimp about Jessie Dymond!" "It was you yourself," said Denzil, sullenly. "Everybody was giving it up.
Three months later the Medical Officer sat talking to the C.O. in the Headquarter dug-out. "As for old Dymond," he said, "he ought never to have been sent out here again. He's done his bit already, and they ought to have given him a 'cushy' job at home, instead of one of those young staff blighters" for the M.O. was no respecter of persons, and even a "brass hat" failed to awe him.
"Look here, Uncle, what d'you want to get at?" "The facts, my boy." "You've got all there are." "How about that young woman up at your place?" "What young woman?" "That Miss " Ranny's mother supplied his loss. "Miss Dymond." "What's she got to do with it?" said Ranny. "I'm asking you. What has she?" "Nothing. You can keep her out of it." "That's what I should advise you to do, my boy."
You give us the Useful, Tom; that's what the world wants more than the Beautiful." "Socrates said that the Useful is the Beautiful," said Denzil. "That may be," said Peter, "but the Beautiful ain't the Useful." "Nonsense!" said Denzil. "What about Jessie I mean Miss Dymond? There's a combination for you. She always reminds me of Grace Darling. How is she, Tom?" "She's dead!" snapped Tom. "What?"
Seeing that his men were becoming demoralised by the bombardment, Captain Dymond, on his own initiative, led a surprise attack against the enemy trenches. He found the Germans unprepared, and at the head of his men captured two lines of trenches along a front of two hundred and fifty yards.
