"Wait till I get free," said Micky, furiously. "I'll fix him." In regard to Micky, I have only to say further at this time, that he was at once conveyed to the Tombs, summarily tried and convicted, and spent the same night on Blackwell's Island, where we leave him for three months. "You'll be able to attend Ida Greyson's party after all, Dick," said Fosdick, on Tuesday evening.
Greyson's drawing-room, would identify him as the Ragged Dick of other days. Then there was another ground for confidence. Ida liked him, and he had a sincere liking for the little girl for whom he had a feeling such as a brother has for a cherished younger sister. So Dick dressed himself for the party, feeling that he should "get through it somehow."
He looked at it earnestly, and sighed. "It is beautiful," said he. "Greyson is a son to be proud of and to love." "Well?" she asked significantly. "What do you mean?" returned he. "What has Greyson's picture to do with what we were talking about?" She took the photograph from his hand, extinguished the light, and walked back toward the desk.
Her woman's instinct divined the loneliness which overwhelmed the widow, and this proof of her sympathy was the passport to Mrs. Greyson's heart. Loneliness was the feeling of which Helen was most of all conscious.
"Well, you may have another as soon as you like, and I'll be sure to include the Greyson's next time." "Land's End is the most delightful place in the world " Janey threw her arms around Aunt Janice impulsively, while sudden tears brimmed over and splashed down her cheeks. "Why, my dear, you must be all tired out," the old lady began sympathetically. But Janey shook her head.
Sir Louis, however, had to bear his rejection as best he could, and, after a perseverance of three days, returned to London in disgust; and Mary had not seen him since. Mr Greyson's first letter was followed by a second; and the second was followed by the baronet in person. He also required to be received en grand seigneur, perhaps more imperatively than Mr Mortimer Gazebee himself.
Traverse started and gazed upon his friend in amazement, and was about to express his astonishment, when Herbert, seeing others approach, drew the arm of his friend within his own, and they hurried silently on toward Major Greyson's quarters.
"I hope he won't think I'm mean enough to keep the money." Now Dick was scrupulously honest, and though the temptation to be otherwise had often been strong, he had always resisted it. Greyson's name on the door of an office on the first floor. The door being open, Dick walked in. "Is Mr. Greyson in?" he asked of a clerk who sat on a high stool before a desk. "Not just now. He'll be in soon.
That's why I've got ter get into the deep woods. I just naturally hate folks except in small doses. Why" here Jim put the gun down upon the table "five mile back, up on Lone Dome, is the Greyson's, and it ain't nine miles to Jed Martin's place. Miss Lois Ann's is a matter o' sixteen miles; what do you call population if them figures don't prove it?"
Truedale shaded his face with his hand, but kept his eyes on Greyson's distorted face. "Lil' Nella-Rose. I have to keep in mind her youth and enjoying ways or I'd be right hard on Nella-Rose. Yo' may have heard, while travelling about o' Nella-Rose?" This was asked nervously searchingly. "I've I've heard that name," Truedale ventured.
