All kinds of rumors were in the air as to how many of these there were. The Consolidated leaders boldly claimed that they had only to give the word to force the election of their candidate on any ballot. Yesler did not believe this claim could be justified, since Pelton and Harley were already negotiating with him for the delivery of the votes belonging to the cattlemen's contingent.
But Jerry snarled again and was for leaping upon the black when he stirred restlessly and dizzily sat up. Harley removed a knife from between the bare skin and a belt. "What name belong you?" he demanded.
"Who is it to be, Miss Catherwood or Miss Harley?" "Neither." "Neither?" "No; I am in bad grace with both. The lady whom I am to have the honour, the privilege, etc., of escorting is Mrs. Markham." Her face fell. "I am sorry to hear it," she said frankly. Prescott, for the first time since his childhood, felt some anger toward his mother. "Why not, mother?" he asked.
Sefton!" she replied. "There are many in the South, I know and there must be as many in the North." "It is your generous heart that speaks," he said, and then he turned to Colonel Harley, who was claiming the attention of an old acquaintance. The two men shook hands with great warmth.

Henry Lennox, who had walked up to Harley Street after a late dinner, and had evidently expected to find his brother and sister-in-law at home. Margaret suspected him of being as thankful as she was at the presence of a third party, on this their first meeting since the memorable day of his offer, and her refusal at Helstone.
The truth, however, is that although Defoe afterwards tried to convince the Whig leaders that he had written these pamphlets in their interest, they were written in the interest of Harley. They were calculated to recommend that Minister to Prince George, in the event of his accession to the English throne.
"I am really sorry that I must go," she said, sincerely. "But you will come back to us?" "I have promised to do so." "That is enough; we know that you will keep a promise, Miss Sylvia." Sylvia at first would not look at Harley. His kiss still burned upon her brow, and she yet felt that it was his seal, his claim upon her.
No tears shed for Nora made such deep furrows on the cheeks as thine did! Yet who ever saw them flow?
