Do you think I care for any one of the pack? It's not the fault of the Marchioness of Farintosh that her family is not equal to mine. Besides two others in England and Scotland, I should like to know what family is? I tell you what, Hench. I bet you five to two, that before an hour is over my mother will be here, and down on her knees to me, begging me to break off this engagement."
Extraordinary disclosures. I say, I can fancy Hench and Tod over this awful piece of news. "Pretty news, ain't it, Toddy?" says Henchman, looking up from a Perigord-pie, which the faithful creature is discussing. "Always expected it," remarks the other. "Anybody who saw them together last season must have known it. The Chief himself spoke of it to me." "It'll cut him up awfully when he reads it.
"True," said Jeems. He rolled over on his hands and knees. Bert took up a similar position by his side. "Go!" shouted Hench from the window ledge. At the word, the two on the mattress turned and grappled each other fiercely, half rising to their feet in the strenuousness of endeavour. Jeems tried frantically for a half-Nelson. While preventing it the wily Bert awaited his chance for a hammer-lock.
"What does he want to do West?" asked Hench. "He doesn't know. Write a book, I believe, or something of that sort. But he isn't an ass. He has a lot of good stuff in him, only it will never get a chance, fixed the way he is now." A silence fell, which was broken at last by Bert. "Come, Jeems," he suggested; "here we've taken up Hench's valuable idea, but are no farther with it."
In 1887 the Department was divided and Calvin Thomas, '74, became Professor of Germanic Languages and Literature, to be succeeded, after his call to Columbia University in 1896, by George A. Hench, Lafayette, '85, who lost his life three years later in an accident in the White Mountains. Max Winkler, Harvard, '89, the present occupant of the chair, eventually succeeded him.
But though you are a younger bird, you have better eyes than I have and you saw the thing at once at once, don't you remember I and Coralie said how glad she was, because Sir Barnes ill-treated her friend. What was the name of Coralie's friend, Hench?" "How should I know her confounded name?" Henchman briskly answers. "What do I care for Sir Barnes Newcome and his private affairs?
He was exceedingly well-dressed. A moment's pause followed his appearance. Then: "Why, it's our old friend, the kid!" cried Jeems. "Don't let me interrupt," begged the youth diffidently. "No interruption. End of round one," panted Jeems. "Glad you came. Bertie, here, was twisting my delicate clavicle most cruelly. Know Hench and Beck there?"
The two again took position side by side, on their hands and knees, while Mr. Hench explained to de Laney that this method of beginning the bout was necessary, because the limited area of the mat precluded flying falls. At a signal from Mr. Beck, they turned and grappled, Jeems, by the grace of Providence, on top.
