As there was plenty of time, he took a stroll or two across the court before going in. While doing so, he met De Vayne, and in his company suddenly found himself vis-a-vis with his old enemy Brogten. "Hm!" whispered Brogten to his companion; "the sizars are getting on. A sizar and a viscount arm-in-arm!"
She paused, touched her lips with her gloved hand meditatingly, and then went right-about-face swiftly. Some one in the window motioned frantically to the vender, but he did not understand. Ten minutes left in which to win his bet. He hadn't made a very good bargain. Hm! The young woman in blue was stopping. Her exquisite face was perfectly serious as her eyes ran over the collection on the tray.
And it's extremely curious the smell. Celery sauce. Let me. Mr Bloom inserted his nose. Hm. Into the. Hm. Opening of his waistcoat. Almonds or. No. Lemons it is. Ah no, that's the soap. O by the by that lotion. I knew there was something on my mind. Never went back and the soap not paid. Dislike carrying bottles like that hag this morning. Hynes might have paid me that three shillings.
"Hm," she said to herself softly. "Now that is a queer thing. That letter was written nearly five years ago. I don't know why I never thought of royalties since Daddy went. I frequently heard him mention them before. I suppose they're being paid to John Gilman as administrator, or to the Consolidated Bank, and cared for with Father's other business.
Grannie came down in a gigantic bonnet like a half-moon, with her white cap visible beneath it; and Nancy Joe appeared behind her, be-ribboned out of all recognition, and taller by many inches for the turret of feathers and flowers on the head that was usually bare. Then the church bells began to peal, and Cæsar made a prolonged A hm! and said in a large way, "Has the carriage arrived?"
"Godfreys mighty! so be I. But she says she b'lieves she needs a change and there's church conference up there, you know, and she figgers that she ain't been to conference she don't know when. I s'pose you'll go, won't you, Mr. Ellery?" "Probably." "Um hm. I kind of wisht I was goin' myself. 'Twill be kind of lonesome round home without her."
He felt the intentness of her steadfast gaze, and paused. He stopped. It seemed that everything stopped too. So striking, indeed, was the sensation, that he gave expression to it half aloud: "It's slowing up," he murmured, "stopping!... I do believe! Hm!..." There was no answer this time, no sign of echo anywhere, but he heard an owl calling its muffled note from the Wood without a Centre.
Is thy name De la Noye?" "Truly!" exclaimed the boy, his face lighting vivaciously. "I am Philip de la Noye." "Hm, and your brother Jacques is he in the company, or coming in the next ship?" asked Alden grimly; but at that moment Priscilla coming swiftly forward, held out both hands to the new-comer exclaiming joyously in French, "Philip, dear lad! Glad am I to see thee."
"Hm! I've ten minutes. Yes, all right. If the gentlemen arrive meanwhile put 'em in the smoking room. Get a coat. Shan't be a second." He disappeared into the bedroom and Doran went out to fetch Isabel. "If you'll take a chair, miss, he won't keep you a moment. The evening paper?" "No," she said, "no." It was a very different Isabel from the curled up little person who sat on the cushions.
With this foreword, Jane acquainted the two girls with what had taken place in the matron's office. "Hm!" sniffed Judith as Jane finished. "She's begun rather early in the year, hasn't she?" "I see we're of the same mind, Judy," Jane said quietly. "I, too, am of that same mind," broke in Adrienne. "I will say to you now most plainly that it was Marian Seaton who wrote the letter."
