Even then, on his first coming, something had happened, which he did not care to talk about, which made him glad of the dreary seclusion of Keewatin. It had been generally supposed that he was badly wanted by Justice, for having shot his man in a border hold-up, or for deeds of violence in some kindred escapade.
It had not been satisfactory from Forsythe's point of view; that is, he had not been so easily able to disabuse the father's mind of suspicion, nor to establish his own guileless character as he had hoped; and some of the remarks Rogers made led Forsythe to think that the father understood just how unpleasant it might become for him if his brother-in-law found out about the escapade.
I did not say anything about my plans to our dear invalid, but I asked our old friend Meydieu to find me a flat. The old man, who had tormented me so much during my childhood, had been most kind to me ever since my debut at the Theatre Francais, and, in spite of my row with Nathalie, and my escapade when at the Gymnase, he was now ready to see the best in me.
Breen, of course, raved when Corinne at last opened the door of her cage for Garry, went to bed, in fact, for the day, to accentuate her despair and mark her near approach to death because of it a piece of inconsistency she could well have spared herself, knowing Corinne as she had, from the day of her birth, and remembering as she must have done, her own escapade with the almost penniless young army officer who afterward became Corinne's father.
Now suppose there had been no train back to-night, what would you have done?

It was the very night after the Caps and Capers escapade that the girls were gathered in the upper hall talking about the previous night's fun.
Suzette was somewhat sleepy from the fatigues of her escapade to Boston, and an afternoon spent mostly in the cold air, and from time to time she yawned, and said she must really go to bed, and then went on talking. "Shall you have any of the South Hatboro' people?" her sister asked. "Mrs. Munger and her tribe?" said Suzette, with a contemptuous little smile.
Narrative has its limits and, to relate in some sequence the honest sailor's tortures in love with a tactician, I have necessarily omitted concurrent incidents of a still tamer character; but the reader may, by the help of his own intelligence, gather their general results from the following dialogues, which took place on the afternoon and evening of the terrible infant's escapade. Mrs.
We found our gap all right, and strolled back past the swings and up the gravel walk as unconcernedly as possible, fully believing no one had been witness of our escapade. We were wrong. Hawkesbury came up to us as we neared the house, with the usual smile on his face. "Didn't you hear me calling?" he said. "You know it's against rules to go out of bounds, and I thought "
While he fitted a new pane of glass in place of the broken one, Mona expressed her opinion of the escapade of the night before. "It was all your fault, Bill!" she exclaimed.
