True to her theory on the subject, Martha invariably rises at his entrance, and offers him her seat! He pretends not to see it, and runs to get one for her! Then she takes comfort in seeing him consume her good things, since his gobbling them down is a sort of tacit tribute to their merits. Mrs. Embury was here to-day.
But I thought of myself, and how likely it was that under the same circumstances I should have been beside myself, and done nothing. This, and many other emotions, made me burst out crying. "Yes, cry, cry, with all your heart," said Mrs. Embury, laying Emma gently down, and coming to get me into her arms. "It will do you good, poor child!"
"Of course, we don't always play for the same. Indeed, the sum may differ at the various tables. Are you prying into my private affairs?" "Only so far as I'm obliged to, ma'am. Never mind the bridge for the moment. Was Mr. Embury annoyed with his wife for any reason when he called to take her home?" "Now, how should I know that?" a pretty look of perplexity came into the blue eyes.
Now, as to these two people with opportunity but no motive. They are, I'm told, Miss Ames and the butler. Very well, I grant their opportunity but since they are alleged to have no motive, why consider them at all? This brings us to Mrs, Embury." Eunice was watching the speaker, fascinated. She had never met a man like this before.
He fairly made you see that poisoning scene!" "Was Mrs, Embury interested?" "Oh, we both were! We were at school together, and we both loved Shakespeare we took it 'Special. And we were terribly interested in the Avon Players' 'Hamlet' it was unlike any representation we had ever seen." "Ah yes; and did you you and Mrs, Embury discuss the poison used by the wicked uncle?" "Not lately.
But, if I'm wrong, let Mrs, Embury explain the presence of that dropper in her medicine chest." "I don't know anything about the thing! I never saw or heard of it before! I don't believe you found it where you say you did!" Eunice faced him with an accusing look. "You put it there yourself it's what you call a frame-up! I know nothing of your old dropper!"
I know the consensus of opinion is that I murdered my husband that I might have his money and full control of it. This is no new element." "No;" said Driscoll, moved by the sight of the now patient, gentle face; "no; but we've added a few more facts and look here, Mrs, Embury, it's this way. I've doped it out that there are five persons who could possibly have committed this this crime.
"Then it is indeed important," and Stone looked at the speaker intently. "Yes, Mr. Stone, it will prove beyond all doubt that Mr. Embury was a suicide." "Go on, then," said Elliott, briefly. "I will. In the half light, I saw this figure I just mentioned. It wasn't discernible clearly it was merely a moving shadow a vague shape. It came toward me " "From which direction?
C.S. Henry, D.D., G.P.R. James, Esq., N.P. Willis, Esq., W. Gilmore Simms, Esq., Bayard Taylor, Esq., J.H. Boker, Esq., Alfred B. Street, Esq., R. H. Stoddard, Esq., Miss Fredrika Bremer, Mrs. Sigourney, Mrs. Oakes Smith, Mrs. Embury, Mrs. Lewis, Mrs. Neal, Mrs. Willard, Mrs.
This, she knew, would irritate her aunt more than further words could do. And yet, Eunice Embury was neither mean nor spiteful of disposition. She had a furious temper, but she tried hard to control it, and when it did break loose, the spasm was but of short duration and she was sorry for it afterward.
