Huntley said good morning, and left the office without shaking hands. All his doubts were confirmed. He went straight home. Ellen was where he had left her, still alone. Mr. Huntley approached her and spoke abruptly. "Are you willing to give up all intimacy with Hamish Channing?" She gazed at him in surprise, her complexion changing, her voice faltering. "Oh, papa! what have they done?"
Jenkins looked up deprecatingly, as if he would apologize for the rudeness of Roland Yorke. "Mr. Galloway is out, sir. I dare say he will not be away more than half an hour." "I cannot wait now," said Mr. Huntley. "So you are one less in this office than you were when I left?" "The awfullest shame!" struck in Roland. "Have you heard that Galloway lost a bank-note out of a letter, sir?" "Yes.
Of course, in these cases, the disgrace is reflected upon relatives and connections, and they have to suffer for it. I cannot help the school's resenting it upon Tom." "It will be cruel to deprive Tom of the seniorship upon these grounds," remonstrated Mr. Huntley. "To himself individually," assented the master.
Jarvis was ready to forgive and forget. So was Mr. Huntley, she felt sure. Of course, he was grieved and hurt at Beth's conduct. He could not understand why she had gone away without a word of farewell. She herself had smoothed matters over as well as she could, but the worry of it all had got on her nerves. She did not pretend to understand what strange notions Beth had got into her head.
Louisa Bentley was very fond of me, and always took care I should have plenty of food. She had invited a party of young ladies to see her that very afternoon: their names were, Miss Wilson, Miss Clark, Miss Smith, Miss Newman, and Miss Huntley. When these young ladies were all seated, their conversation was as follows. Miss Bentley. O, Miss Huntley, I had such a present made me to-day.
Huntley was the first to speak. "Yorke has come to his senses, I suppose?" "Yorke and Constance between them. In a short time she is to be transplanted to Hazledon." "It is more than he deserves," emphatically declared Mr. Huntley. "I suppose you will be for getting married next, Mr. Hamish, when you come into possession of that house we have been speaking of, and are your own master?"
Gaunt excepted, the only senior, besides their respective brothers, was Harry Huntley. "It is not likely, sir," said Arthur. "A senior do it!" scoffed Roland Yorke. "What a young idiot Mark Galloway must be, to think that!" "Mark does not seem to think much about it on his own account," said Mr. Galloway.
"I think you might make a confidant of me, Hamish. That money could not have dropped from the clouds; and I am sure you possessed no funds of your own just then." "But neither did I steal it. Mr. Huntley" raising his eyes to that gentleman's face "how closely you must have watched me and my affairs!" Mr. Huntley drew in his lips. "Perhaps I had my own motives for doing so, young sir."
He always called Sue "Mrs. Snifkins" when they kept store. "Oh, good morning, Mr. Huntley," Sue replied. She always called her brother "Mr. Huntley," when they kept store. Perhaps this was because he used to pretend to hunt for things on the make-believe shelves. "What can I do for you this morning, Mrs. Snifkins?" asked Bunny, rubbing his hands as he had seen Mr. Gordon, the real grocer, do.
The English were under the command of Sir Roger Williams, who had already seen so many years of service in the Low Countries; and under him were Morgan, Thomas Baskerville, and Huntley, who had long served with him. Roger Williams was an admirable man for service of this kind. He had distinguished himself by many deeds of reckless bravery.
