A long dark wood crowned the ridge three miles in front of us. In the centre a slender spire tipped the tree-tops. "That's Baisieux Church," said Major Bullivant, with whom I was riding along the horse track at the side of the road. "Do you know the latest motto for the Labour Corps?" he added inconsequentially, looking down at a bespectacled man in khaki who eased up as we passed.
Though it hurt him, gazing into the frank, earnest face of his fellow countryman, he replied inconsequentially on the state of the trail. Then he espied Father Roubeau, who could not lie. 'A quarter of an hour ago, the priest answered; 'but he had four hours' rest for himself and dogs. 'Fifteen minutes' start, and he's fresh!
"I tell you Beta, this is no pipe-dream at all, or anything like it; the thing's reality we're going to fly! But it'll mean the most tremendous lot of sewing and stitching for you!" "You're a dear!" she answered inconsequentially. "I do believe if the whole world fell apart you could put it together again." "With your help, yes," said he.
"Isn't it dear?" asked Miss Lady with a loving look over her shoulder at the old house silhouetted against the sky. "I could kiss every brick of it, I love it so." "I wish I didn't have to go back to town tonight!" burst out Donald inconsequentially. "I wish I never had to go back to it!" "Why?" "Oh, for lots of reasons.
He had unconsciously sworn it aloud and the men gathered around the bed of their stricken comrade knew that supreme sentence had been passed. They made no comment, but as Douglass, rolling up his sleeves, bent to the clumsy but efficient surgery that was to save Red's life, one of them nudged his neighbor and said inconsequentially, "Red weighs good two hunnerd!"
But soon turning his horse towards the travelers he most inconsequentially completed his sentence by adding, "But I say, God curse King James!" and this malediction he repeated so many times and with such vehemence, that the two horsemen at last turned their horses and riding up to him, told him plainly that he was a rogue.
Between Grace and herself it was quite understood that old Anthony Cardew was always as bad as could be. "There is some sort of trouble at the mill. Your father is worried." And this time it was Lily who did not reply. She said, inconsequentially: "We're saved, and it's all over. But sometimes I wonder if we were worth saving. It all seems such a mess, doesn't it?" She glanced out.
"I believe I'll go to the opery again when I'm on the loose and don't know any better way to blow my money. I like music," he added inconsequentially. "Mother used to sing sometimes." This was as far as they got conversationally that day. Something interrupted Adelle in the midst of the musical discussion and she did not have a chance to return to the wall.
"It was a case of love at first sight." "Happy Eulalie!" she said, enviously. "She has been favored beyond the computation of the gods. That beatitude falls to the lot of but few of her sex." "Are you voicing a personal grievance?" His eyes were full of amused incredulity. She smiled a little bitterly but evaded his question. "What do you hear from Grace?" she asked, inconsequentially.
He touched lightly and inconsequentially upon certain days when Old Tom would hang for hours over an old tin box filled with soiled and ink-smeared memoranda, periods which were always followed by days of moody silence and a week or more of "lessons" in a tattered and thumbed reader which the woodsman had brought up-river lessons as painful and laborious to Old Tom as they were delightful to the starved mentality of the pupil.
