J. Courtenay Smith, in person, of her unalterable fidelity to the shade of his lamented friend. In high glee Jasper showed Mrs. Haughton's answer to Dolly Poole, and began seriously to speculate on the probable amount of the widow's income, and the value of her movables in Gloucester Place. Thence he repaired to Mrs.
Haughton's arm, and staring Darrell full in the face, said, very loud: "In these anxious times, public men dispense with ceremony. I crave an introduction to Mr. Darrell." Thus pressed, poor Mrs. Haughton, without looking up, muttered out: "Mr. Adolphus Poole Mr. Darrell," and turned to welcome fresh comers. "Mr. Darrell," said Mr. Poole, bowing to the ground, "this is an honour."
Of Haughton's coaching methods and the Harvard system Eddie has a few things to tell us that will be news to many football men. "Haughton coaches a great deal by the use of photographs which are taken of us in practice as well as regular games. He would get us all together and coach from the pictures point out the poor work. Seldom were the good points shown.
Afore sanguine of success, he glanced up at the window, and, sure that Mrs. Haughton was there, though he saw her not, lifted his hat with as melancholy an expression of reproach as he could throw into his face. The villain could not have found a moment in Mrs. Haughton's widowed life so propitious to his chance of success.
Charles was my old schoolfellow, a little boy when I and Darrell were in the sixth form; and, pardon me, when I add, that if that gentleman were ever Charles Haughton's particular friend, he could scarcely have been a very wise one. For unless his appearance greatly belies his years he must have been little more than a boy when Charles Haughton left Lionel fatherless."
"You remember the doctor's orders, my dear." Again the voice called her. "Hang the doctor's orders," the girl exclaimed, with an air of almost masculinity. "It can't be half so bad as to have him worry. Will you promise not to stay long? We expect Dr. Bryant in a few moments, anyway." We followed her upstairs and into Haughton's room, where he was lying in bed, propped up by pillows.
Stafford at home: and after an entertaining gossip about some 'rich Nassau damask, at Haughton's in the Coombe, that had taken her fancy mightily, and how she had chosen a set of new Nankeen plates and fine oblong dishes at the Music Hall, and how Peter Raby, the watchman, was executed yesterday morning, in web worsted breeches, for the murder of Mr.
The plans thus promptly formed Alban Morley briefly explained to Lionel when the boy came to breakfast in Curzon Street; requesting him to obtain Mrs. Haughton's acquiesence in that exercise of the discretionary powers with which he had been invested by Mr. Darrell.
"But, you poor little fire-eater, supposing your liking for me to be real," and no ear but hers heard his whispered words "with my knowledge of Haughton's noble nature, I should curse myself did I cause him one jealous pang." She pressed close to him as she breathed tenderly "Trust me my idol he shall never dream of my idolatry."
The next year Percy Haughton's team could not defeat the great Ted Coy, who kicked two goals from the field. The performance of the Harvard 1908 team was the more remarkable because Burr, who was the captain and the great punter at that time, had been injured and the team was without his services.
