"She is not to compare to one of those girls we have left behind us at Montepoole," said Charlton. "Hum well, perhaps you are right; but which girl do you mean? for I profess I don't know." "The second of Mrs. Evelyn's daughters the auburn-haired one." "Miss Constance, eh?" said Thorn. "In what isn't the other one to be compared to her?" "In anything!
Althea Parker, who was Evelyn's friend, and the leader of a clique of the richest girls at Overton, had been given an opportunity to see the contents of one of the trunks and had gone into ecstacies over the dainty hats and frocks Jean had displayed for her benefit. "For goodness' sake where did you get such lovely things?" had been Althea's curious question. "They must have cost a lot of money."
And as always, in the presence of the Blessed Sacrament, Evelyn's doubts vanished, and she knelt in momentary prayer beside the two nuns. Then at her request they went into the garden. It was the part of the convent she remembered best.
"And now, before you go, will you tell me, as you are so wise, what I can do to make to make my mother love me?" Evelyn's voice faltered as she spoke the last words, and Aubrey looked surprised and moved. "Your mother love you, my dear Evelyn! What do you mean, does she not love you?" "Ah, not as I love her.
Hermann Goetze walked up and down the stage, overtaken by toothache. His agony was so complete that Evelyn's harshness yielded. She went to him, and, her hand laid commiseratingly on his arm, she begged him to go at once to the dentist. Then some of the musicians said that they could hardly read the music, so effectually had they scratched it out.
Months after this occurrence, months that passed swiftly because monotonously to me, for by events alone we are told we measure time, I was roused one night from my early slumber by the sound of bitter weeping in Evelyn's chamber. I had left her engaged over accounts with Mr. Bainrothe, having withdrawn rather than spend a long, lonely evening in the parlor, somewhat indisposed as I felt.
And here is the Prioress." The Prioress stood resting, leaning on the door-handle, and Evelyn was by her side in an instant. "Thank you, my child, thank you," and she took Evelyn's arm. "I've heard of your trouble, dear Mother, and am determined to help you; so you must sit down and tell me about it." "Reverend Mother ought not to be about," said Mother Philippa.
He pats me on the head and says, "Didn't know you were Evelyn's sister; thought it was a little three-year old." About to tell me a sad story he had read in the newspaper, he stops suddenly and says, "Believe I won't tell you, dear!" "Did you hear the newspipe has broke?" when the Atlantic Telegraph Cable parted. He had plans for shoving off the Leviathan when it stuck.
Eva shall never be sacrificed to Evelyn's manes, not if John Poindexter lives out his life to his last hour in peace; not if Felix well; I need to play the man; Felix is a formidable antagonist to meet, alone, in a spot of such rancorous memories, at an hour when spirits if there be spirits haunt the precincts of the tomb. I should not have known Felix had I met him in the street.
"Most sadly serious." "Impossible! you could not speak so if you loved him." "Loved him! no! but I intend to marry him." Evelyn was revolted, but still incredulous. "And you, too, will marry one whom you do not love 'tis our fate " "Never!" "We shall see." Evelyn's heart was damped, and her spirits fell.
